London jazz-funk institution Incognito return with Music Magic Ironic, the 20th studio album in a career that began with Jazz Funk in 1981 and later drank the waters of eternal life with Talkin' Loud, released during the 90s acid-jazz tsunami. It dialyses veteran and new blood, echoing the historic heartbeat of bandleader Bluey Maunick's childhood memories of street musicians in Mauritius, where on-the-fly percussion blurred "music" and "magic". That formative mix still powers Incognito's ensemble ethos, brought into sharp focus here with 17 tracks voiced by long-time collaborators Joy Rose, Tony Momrelle and Maysa Leak, plus Zebulon Ellis and Natalie Duncan. The family-sized lineups remains unestranged, a trait going back to the group's early days when Richard Bull's drum programming and Maysa's arrival shaped their Talkin' Loud breakout.
Incognito is getting ready to celebrate yet another career milestone. The iconic British group created by the maestro Jean-Paul “Bluey” Maunick is scheduled to release their 20th studio album Music. Magic. Ironic. this month. The historic set will drop on Thursday, December 25th, so make some room for it under your Christmas tree and in your music collections.
Music. Magic. Ironic.’s arrival on Christmas Day is the perfect release date for this collection because it’s shaping up to be quite a gift. The project is a double album showcasing 17 tracks, including a groovy cover of Roy Ayers’ hit “Running Away” featuring lead vocals by Tony Momrelle and Joy Rose and the return of Incognito mainstay Maysa on the song “Lost Until I Want To Be Found.”
Aside from those esteemed collaborators, the collective known for its soulful roster of vocalists has a few more in the mix. There’s Zebulon Ellis who can be heard on the lead single “Strangers Become Friends” and the cut “Changes In Me,” Natalie Duncan, Cleo Stewart, Imaani, Megan Khan and Chicco Allotta.
Incognito wants their fans to get their groove on this holiday season and well into the new year and beyond with the release of Music. Magic. Ironic., but there’s more to this album than catching a vibe and working up a sweat on the dance floor.
“Music is the message, the power and the key. Hope that you enjoy this 20th chapter of the Incognito story,” Bluey said in a teaser video recorded alongside the album’s co-producer and mixer Mo Hausler. Bluey also touched on what inspired the title, sharing, “You see, I was five years old when I mistakenly called ‘music’ ‘magic.’ Feeling trapped in a broken world 63 years later, this album has magically set my soul free.”
With 46 years and now 20 albums in, Incognito is still going strong and sounding better than ever. Music. Magic. Ironic. will be released worldwide on Splash Blue and available on all streaming platforms and on vinyl and CD, which can be pre-ordered from Bandcamp.
