Wildly talented keys player Joe Armon-Jones is back with new single ‘Icy Roads (Stacked)’, a head-spinning blend of luminous jazz-funk synths, off-kilter drums and a languorous, ear-worm bassline.

Featuring in-demand kit man KwAkE bAsS (who’s worked with Kate Tempest, Sampha and Joey Bada$$) and bassist Mutale Chashi (part of KOKOROKO), this is a tight trio hitting all the right notes. It features killer artwork nodding to Thrust era Herbie Hancock. The vinyl also comes backed with an exclusive b-side, the gloriously loose and languid ‘Aquarius’. “It’s that basis of astounding chops that has made this crop of players gain attention on the international stage and should get audiences excited for the next album from Joe Armon-Jones.” - Earmilk
