Sun [LP] (ONLINE ORDER ONLY)

Freerange Records proudly presents "SUN", the brand new album from Crackazat - a radiant, genre-spanning statement and the long-awaited follow-up to his critically acclaimed 2021 album "Evergreen". "SUN" is Crackazat's fourth album and his most expansive work to date: a rich blend of jazz, house, hip hop, soul, and funk that fully steps into his own lane as a musician, bandleader, collaborator, song writer, and producer.Flowing effortlessly between moods and genres, the album reveals the full scope of his artistry - from intricate keys and deep basslines to lush vocal features and extended live arrangements. It's unmistakably Crackazat: warm, musical, deeply crafted - yet full of moments that feel fresh, unexpected, and alive.At it's core, "SUN" draws on the idea of the sun as life's foundation - our shared source of warmth, light, and energy. Crackazat channels that universal force into music designed to uplift, connect, and radiate timeless positivity. Blending traditional musicality with a contemporary, UK take on funk, soul, pop, dance, and jazz, "SUN" captures the spirit of the Brit-Funk revival for a new generation - "the jazz funk album Crackazat always wanted to make."The album is Crackazat's first fully collaborative record, featuring standout vocal performances from Eva Lazarus, Lyric Jones, Cap1talA, and Olivier St. Louis, alongside guest musicians recorded between Stockholm and New York. We are also treated to the gorgeous falsetto vocal of Ben Jacobs, aka Crackazat himself, on songs like 'Watchu Say' and 'Pick Me Up'. Live drums and percussion (Tamez Dolev), horns (Andreas Gidlund, Karl Olandersson), and bass intertwine seamlessly with electronic production, resulting in a sound that feels internationally classic yet unmistakably forward-thinking.
