Like the earlier incarnations of the project, Shades 3 is a sample-heavy remix project that exemplifies Kassa’s irreverent, gonzo approach to the jazz tradition he is steeped in. The project is, in characteristic fashion, suffused with intimate histories and hidden witticisms. Shades 3 also reflects Kassa’s recent embrace of the drum machine, surfacing a far more danceable sound than the previous Shades efforts.

Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell
