Honeycomb Music's 'Shapes, Colors, and Magic' series gets the vinyl treatment - Vol. 1 coming Fri Dec 11

<

Honeycomb Music is extremely proud to present Josh Milan's phenomenal new vinyl series, based on the "Shapes, Color and Magic" EP. On his latest EP, Josh explores some of the most innovative jazz and dance music rhythms ever released on the label. "Acts 2 and 4" set the tone for a remarkable collection of instrumental songs that include such gems as: "9 Pound Hammer," "Peace," "God Is On My Side," "The Plight of the Square" and "First Graders."

You can hear hints of Milan's vocals throughout the project, but his lead vocals aren't the focus here. In "Shapes, Color and Magic," he pushes the boundaries and challenges our beliefs around danceable jazz music. As with his "6.9.69" LP, this EP is very jazz influenced, improvisational and timeless. For this vinyl series, Honeycomb Music releases "Shapes and Colors Vol. 1" (an abridged version of the original EP) and breaths new life into these beautiful compositions by offering even more music related to the project. Stay tuned as we've got more to come!
