About

- The Analog Vault // Essential Listening -

From leading ensembles such as KADEF, to playing with the likes of Patti Smith, Thurston Moore and Godspeed! You Black Emperor - Devin Brahja Waldman is vaunted as a musical visionary in high demand. But of the many projects that the New York multi-instrumentalist and composer is involved in, none have been as awe-inspiring as his collective Brahja.

The group’s self-titled album, originally released in 2019 via Estonian label RR GEMS, is a spiritual jazz record evocative of mysticism amidst multiple layers of esotericism. Led by Waldman and his core unit comprising of pianist Damon Shadrach Hankoff, keyboardist Isis Giraldo, bassist Martin Heslop and drummer Daniel Gelinas (alongside several other contributors on saxophone, surdo, guitar, vocals and more) – the compositions crafted seem to create a hypnotic ritualistic atmosphere. Amidst its chanting voices and haunting soundscapes, one might just find enlightenment. — The Analog Vault
