來自加州的Angelo Moore & the Brand New Step,混合爵士、R&B與Soul,有力而歡騰的律動,在〈Centuries of Heat〉有著派對般的行進,卻在跳躍蒸騰的旋律下藏著對於現代政治、環境的擔憂與掙扎。(by Fang)
With a solid groove throughout and the Angelo Moore required pair of party tunes to keep it jumping, Centuries Of Heat tackles topics that are on everybody s mind, from Black Lives Matter (Built For Love) to global terrorism (Centuries of Heat) to marijuana politics (Killaweed) to his own personal struggles through the ever-changing and unsteady music business (Karma Cashback). Decompression and the Booty Bang, the aforementioned party tunes, feature guest appearances from Butterscotch, Casual, Boots Riley, and Syzygy. Perhaps the most telling song on the record is Gratitude - a beautiful, complex layered horn and vocal arrangement that offers a heartfelt thanks to the people that have brought Angelo this far.
