Following the success of the "Ayo Ke Disco" compilation (on Soundway), Norsicaa launches a new record label. The first release is "After Midnight", a reissue of the sublime second album from keyboardist Boy Katindig. Jazz-fusion, disco-funk, Latin jazz and batucada rhythms get the Filipino treatment on this album originally released in 1980. "After Midnight" draws heavy influence from soul and funk contemporaries in the US as well as Latin America, in particular the famed Brazilian percussionist Paulinho da Costa.It’s a testament to his musical prowess that Katindig weaves effortlessly between styles and tempos. His reverence for Paulinho da Costa extends far, with covers of several songs from the latter’s 1979 "Happy People" album. It also includes a slow-burner cover of "Déjà Vu" written by Isaac Hayes originally for Dionne Warwick; on the Filipino instrumental version, local legends Jun Regalado and Roger Herrera (from Regalado’s "Pinoy Funk" single) are reunited on drums and bass respectively.But Katindig’s original compositions hold just as much weight and unique personality: title track "After Midnight" opens with a sultry funk serenade reminiscent of The Isley Brothers, and quickly transforms into a catchy, blistering, saxophone chorus that brims with swagger. Hidden B-side gem "Got The Need" is an uptempo tribute to batucada that would not be out of place in a jazzy house set, and boasts increasingly elaborate and psychedelic solos from Katindig on keys and Ben Concepcion on soprano sax.Product DetailsArtist: BOY KATINDIGTitle: After MidnightCatalogue Number: LPSAMAR001Barcode: 5070004481605Label: SAMA SAMA RECORDSTracklistingA1.
