Mark de Clive-Lowe - Journey 2 the Light

I started this blog with a post about IG Culture's Zen Badizm album and found Kaidi's album In Search Of Hope a worthwhile start into 2009. Both were released on Japan's Freedom School label, which started its seminal releases with another great album, “Journey 2 the Light” from Mark de Clive-Lowe.

There are two reasons, why you never read about this here. First, it was released long before this blog even existed. Secondly, and tragically, I never managed to get a copy of it on vinyl! So why mention it now?

Well, as you can see Mark decided to put the entire album on his SoundCloud page, so you can listen to it wherever you are whenever you want. Or, if you're not as picky as I am, this should convince you to buy a copy of Journey 2 the Light on CD. You really should, because in my opinion it's the best album Mark has ever put out!

Let me also share this video of Mark and Bembe at the album's launch party, recorded at Yokohama's Motion Blue club.

Update Mark mentions on his blog, that there will be a worldwide digital release later this year. However, it seems that will be a live-version of the album.
