Description: | â??Xaybu: The Unseenâ?? ist die mit Spannung erwartete zweite Veröffentlichung von Sélébéyone, dem internationalen Avant-Rap-Kollektiv bestehend aus den MCs HPrizm (New York City) und Gaston Bandimic (Dakar) sowie den Saxofonisten Steve Lehman (Los Angeles) und Maciek Lasserre (Paris). Das Debüt der Band aus dem Jahr 2016 wurde als eine bahnbrechende Synthese aus Underground-Hip-Hop, modernem Jazz und elektronischer Live-Musik gefeiert. Auf â??Xaybuâ?? baut Sélébéyone (Kreuzung auf Wolof ) weiter auf ihre bahnbrechende Arbeit mit wechselnden Rhythmen und modernstem Sounddesign auf, jetzt mit einem neu entdeckten Gefühl für einen mühelosen Fluss. - Xaybu: The Unseen is the sophomore release from Sélébéyone, the international avant-rap collective led by saxophonist and composer Steve Lehman, who has been hailed by The New York Times for his "sure-footed futurism" in the realms of modern jazz and contemporary classical music. Comprised of MCs HPrizm and Gaston Bandimic, saxophonists Lehman and Maciek Lasserre, and drummer Damion Reid, their eponymous 2016 debut was hailed as a game-changing synthesis of underground hip-hop, modern jazz and live electronic music that was described by Pitchfork as "legitimately new" and a "revelation." On Xaybu, Sélébéyone - which means "intersection" in Wolof - continues to build on it's groundbreaking work with shifting rhythms and state-of-the art sound design, now with a newfound sense of effortless fluidity. The word "xaybu" in Wolof refers to the concept in Islamic mysticism of al-Ghaib - that which is unknowable and unseeable. HPrizm (a.k.a.
