It might seem \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eaudacious at the very least to undertake a new recording of such a \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003efoundational album, but twin brothers Jared and Jonathan Mattson \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eare nothing if not sonic risk-takers. With their new release Mattson 2 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlay “A Love Supreme,” the duo reimagines Coltrane’s avant-garde epic through a 21st-century lens, creating a new interpretation that remains faithful to the questing spirit of the original while pushing the music into bold new territory—which itself is fully in keeping with the composer’s forward-looking vision. The album Translates the Coltrane Quartet’s acoustic jazz  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eexplorations into a modern language swathed in a haze of analog  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003esynths, ecstatic guitars, transcendent grooves and enveloping \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eatmospherics\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe duo undertook an intensive study of the original composition, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eColtrane’s notes, and every available recording by the Coltrane \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eQuartet as well as later versions by the likes of John McLaughlin, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBranford Marsalis and Alice Coltrane. They used that vocabulary \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eto create their own take, which they honed through invaluable live \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eperformances before audiences largely unfamiliar with the original. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“It was so incredible to see the way that a rock fans connected with \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ethe music,” Jonathan recalls. “There was yelling and crying, people \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003egetting really stoked and devouring every note we were playing. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSeeing people’s minds getting blown by Coltrane’s music, was an \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003einspiration for us.” Those visceral reactions attest to the continuing \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eimpact of Coltrane’s bold vision. This album channels that vision with \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eboth reverence and inventiveness, creating \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ea vibrant and electrifying \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003enew interpretation that will resonate with new generations of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eopen-minded listeners\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"South Records Ltd","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":64322935652729,"sku":null,"price":16.09,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0973\/1463\/6153\/files\/mattson-2-play-a-love-supreme-south-records-ltd_75e4217f-bce1-44ed-875d-10863d0a6d38.jpg?v=1787904112","url":"https:\/\/vinyl-relic.com\/products\/mattson-2-play-a-love-supreme","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
