Ubiquity Records was a first of its kind US label founded in 1990 that specialized in re-releasing vintage jazz, funk, soul and Latin music, known at the time as ‘Rare Groove’. Originating from a boutique record shop –
Groove Merchant - in the Lower Haight area of San Francisco that had a reputation as ‘the place to shop’ for collectors. Customers included A Tribe Called Quest, Jamiroquai, DJ Shadow, Neneh and Don Cherry, Dee-Lite and most notably the Beastie Boys who gave them a shout out in their song ‘Professor Booty’. Voted ‘Worldwide Label of The Year’ by Gilles back in 2004, Ubiquity continues to be a label synonymous with authenticity and quality.
No strangers to Ubiquity, Super Yamba Band are an afro-funk, afrobeat, psychedelic collective based in Brooklyn. The talented group pf musicians bonded over a shared love of African beats and rare pressings, and on this five-track release Super Yamba Band dig into their archives and share this very daring take on instrumental afrobeat originally recorded in 2014. The ‘Last Leap EP’ takes listeners back to days when SYB just arrived in Brooklyn and is a sonic timestamp of the band’s creative energy during those very special first days. The tracks were used trying to book their first gigs, which led them on to playing in Harlem’s African music clubs – Silvana and Shrine - as well as DIY dance parties across the city.
This is Super Yamba Band as a young an unbridled force pushing the sonic boundaries of what afrobeat could become in the 21st century, at the same time just trying to make people dance for as long as possible. From the early days of the ‘Last Leap sessions’, Super Yamba Band have not stopped pushing. Today the group has gained notoriety in the global afrobeat and afro funk scenes through its relentless touring and from their Ubiquity releases with the mighty Kaleta.
