Neroli is back with a new album project by long time hero and music mastermind Kirk Degiorgio. This project links the Planetary Folklore aesthetics and Kirk’s praised contribution to The First Circle, the beautiful ‘Leave Everything Behind’, in a very spiritual and ethereal way. Born after witnessing Pharaoh Sanders performance at We Out Here festival in 2022, ‘Robe Of Dreams’ represents Degiorgio’s tribute to the artists that shaped his musical world.

Featuring an extraordinary band and incorporating elements of techno, jazz, boogie, soul, fusion, and Afro, this ultimate electric jazz fusion album has evolved into a complete band sound. With legendary guest Roy Ayers on board, the record showcases the band’s crossover brilliance.

Following their second album ‘Message From A New Dawn,’ Kyoto Jazz Massive (under the name Jeroboam) toured Europe with ‘Echoes of A New Dawn Orchestra’ and performed across venues like Jazz Cafe and Ronnie Scott’s in London, selling out shows and gaining even more popularity than during their prime. They also performed on the main stage of the 2023 We Out Here festival, curated by Gilles Peterson, where they wowed the audience. The re-release of their LP ‘Message From A New Dawn’—which previously topped the iTunes Dance Chart—is highly anticipated, as it includes the standout track "Impulsive Procession," which hit #1 on Traxsource's Nu-Jazz/Broken Beat chart.

Looking ahead to Kyoto Jazz Massive’s 30th-anniversary live performance in Japan in 2025, the timing of this repress is perfect for fans both in Japan and abroad. The record offers an all-original, fully band-recorded set of tracks, with contributors such as Vanessa Freeman, Kenichi Ikeda (root Soul), Takumi Kaneko (cro-magnon), Kaztake Takeuchi (A Hundred Birds), Takashi Nakazato, Yasushi Fukumori, Dubzombie (soil&”pimp”sessions), and even the Vienna Philharmonic’s Kirill Kobantschenko. Legendary jazz vibraphonist Roy Ayers also adds his distinctive touch to this remarkable album. Vocals were recorded and mixed by Toni Economides, who is also known for his work with Reel People, The Realm, and Moodymann’s “Taken Away.” The album's mastering was handled by Neil Pickles, a four-time Grammy nominee who has worked on various Latin projects. Art direction by the Okino brothers, with photos of Hiroyuki Wakabayashi’s architecture shot by Shuya Okino, and design by Naohiro Nomura of List, ties everything together visually.
