Yusef Lateef's METAMUSICNew Release - 2020

Mp3 | Flac YAL Records


The premier release of this newly discovered 1991 recording titled METAMUSIC underscores the extent to which Yusef Lateef’s musical choices were evolving in the early 1990s. As a ladybug on a leaf receives and is so moved by the “meta” (that which is above or beyond) realm of musical sound vibrations, living beings become aware of the delicate balance that exists in nature so as to survive or even thrive as critically as this music has done in nearly thirty years.

Lateef’s composer’s assignment to anyone experiencing this album is to mindfully settle into the journey autophysiopsychically along with the members of the Eternal Wind’s performing interpretation. What could be your interpretation? How are you poised to make sense of the encounter and gently observe its beauty?

  • This is a limited edition new release for 2020.
  • The METAMUSIC CD Cover is available as a fine quality art print. It may be purchased separately or in a bundle with the CD for a special discounted price.
  • The cover art used for the METAMUSIC CD is Yusef Lateef's original artwork "On Zero More" and is also available as a fine quality art print.
