Various - Revive Music Presents Supreme Sonacy Vol 1

Review by Daden Argabisma

Revive Music Presents Supreme Sonacy Vol. 1: A Genre-Bending Masterpiece Released in 2015 under the iconic Blue Note and Revive Music labels, Supreme Sonacy Vol. 1 isn’t your typical jazz album. It’s a kaleidoscope of Funk, Soul, Jazz, Electronic, and Hip Hop influences, stitched together by the innovative style of Electro-Jazz. Executive-Producer Meghan Stabile and Producer Raydar Ellis bring a fresh perspective to the table, blending classic sounds with modern beats. This is music that feels alive—like it’s breathing alongside you. The album opens with "All Aboard (Raydar Ellis Remix)," and man, does it set the tone. The track marries a funky bassline with glitchy electronic elements, creating something both nostalgic and futuristic. You can almost picture yourself stepping into a time machine powered by brass instruments and drum machines. What sticks out is how Ellis remixes the original, injecting it with an energy that feels urgent yet playful. It’s not just background noise; it demands your attention. The interplay between live instrumentation and digital production keeps you guessing what comes next—a hallmark of the album as a whole. Another standout is “Water Games (Ravel Re-Imagined).” Featuring Eldar Djangirov, Casey Benjamin, Troy Roberts, Vicente Archer, BIGYUKI, and Mark Colenburg, this track reinterprets Ravel’s classical elegance through a contemporary lens. It starts off smooth, almost meditative, but soon spirals into a sonic adventure. The saxophone solos soar while the piano lines dance around them like sparks flying from a fire. There’s a moment midway where everything drops except for the rhythm section, leaving space for reflection before diving back into chaos. It’s one of those tracks you replay just to catch all its layers. What makes Supreme Sonacy Vol. 1 so compelling is its refusal to stay boxed in. Tracks like “Celebration of Life Suite: Awareness & Revolution” blend Nadia Washington’s soulful vocals with Chris Potter’s saxophone wizardry, creating moments that feel raw and deeply human. Meanwhile, remixes like “808s In France [Raydar Ellis Remix]” throw listeners into a club-ready vibe without losing the essence of jazz improvisation. The transitions between intros, interludes, and full-blown compositions are seamless, making the entire experience flow like a well-crafted mixtape. One thing worth noting is how collaborative the project feels. With so many artists contributing, there’s a sense of community here—an invitation to explore different voices within the same musical universe. Yet, Raydar Ellis’ hand is unmistakable throughout, tying everything together with his signature touch. If I had to nitpick, some might find the constant switching between genres disorienting. But honestly, that unpredictability is part of the charm. It’s not trying to fit neatly into any category—it’s carving out its own space. And hey, if you’re someone who loves albums that challenge you rather than lull you into complacency, this one’s for you. In the end, Supreme Sonacy Vol. 1 leaves you thinking: What even is genre anymore? Is it a boundary or just another tool to play with? Whatever the answer, this album proves that when musicians break free from conventions, magic happens. Oh, and fun fact—I haven’t stopped humming “Water Games” since my first listen. Guess you could say it made quite the splash. Rating: 8.5/10

Interesting fact about Album

Here’s a cool fact: The album *Revive Music Presents Supreme Sonacy Vol 1* is like a musical mashup dream. Released in 2015, it blends genres like Funk, Soul, Jazz, Electronic, and Hip Hop into something called Electro-Jazz. Raydar Ellis, the producer and remix wizard, put his spin on over half the tracks, including "All Aboard" and "808s In France." It’s wild how one album can feel like a journey through so many styles, especially when you realize it’s backed by the legendary Blue Note label. Oh, and fun tidbit—there’s a track called "Water Games" that reimagines Ravel’s classical work with a modern twist, featuring a killer lineup of musicians. Definitely not your average listen!
