{"product_id":"sharif-jairus-water-tools","title":"Sharif, Jairus - Water \u0026 Tools |","description":"The passionate and unclassifiable work of Calgary-based improviser Jairus Sharif embraces each of these definitions of freedom and others, albeit strictly on its own personal and idiosyncratic terms.\n\nSince early 2020, the 34-year-old autodidact has been generating a steady stream of homespun solo recordings that forge unprecedented connections between hip-hop abstraction, cosmic skronk, outsider jazz, and staunch post-punk DIY ethos.\n\nWater \u0026amp; Tools is a dense, contradictory statement with a blustery surface that shelters a soulful heart. It's generous music, exuding profound vulnerability—grappling with the loss of one his mothers, Lisa—all the while brimming with electric wide-eyed wonder.\n\nAlmost every one of the nine pieces seems to carry some semblance of a groove, while remaining completely untethered from pulse. At points, there's a timelessness that's conveyed through the music's processional, ritualistic tenor, and yet there's an endless amount of wild, futuristic detail waiting to unspool at any given moment.","brand":"Sharif, Jairus","offers":[{"title":"- JAZZ *NEW*","offer_id":45137618534515,"sku":"S74J7X-OZAZ-8T","price":22.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0500\/7837\/files\/jazz-new_F3XrZ.jpg?v=1779555784","url":"https:\/\/www.lovevinylrecords.com\/products\/sharif-jairus-water-tools","provider":"Love Vinyl Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
