It’s safe to say that Ari Joshua is the king of the groove. In the indie scene, there are few performers who are as prolific as him. The way he has a spider web of projects in which he just loves to play, we luckily just love to listen. He brings the style back on the velvet cushion like he always does. This one is called Rare Groove.Â
Teaming with Grant Schroff, Skerik and Delvon Lamarr, this feels extra special. In the movie Gone in 60 Seconds, there is a scene when War’s Low Rider plays. As iconic as that is, Ari Joshua has a lot more sway on the funk here. Rare Groove is full of improvised grooves and layers, something you’ll hum along to while having your morning coffee. As you feel the build, you’ll watch yourself smile in the mirror. You know how the late 70s had that class of music that just felt like a good time? That is what Ari Joshua’s music sounds like. As you go ba-da-pa-pa-da, I think it’s interesting to look back at this indie musician’s fantastic portfolio of sound. It is like the dream soundtrack of every classy movie you have admired, all fully furnished by the man Ari Joshua himself. Rare Groove has found itself in the rare position of #1 on my playlists, that’s for sure.
