Stay Tuned! (180 Gram Vinyl) [Vinyl]

33 RPM 180 grams black heavyweight vinyl. Dominique Fils-Aimé kicks off her JUNO award winning album "Stay Tuned!" with a celebration of motivational drums and encouraging words. Melodic humming links the opening track with the final song on her previous album, "Nameless." This transition comments on how the history of music builds upon itself, in this case, from the blues inspired, "Nameless" to the jazz infused "Stay Tuned!" By conceptualizing her album trilogy this way, Dominique is figuratively placing herself within the historical and continuous transformation of African American music, mirroring her personal exploration as an artist. The album explores themes of liberation and progress, drawing from the revolutionary jazz movement of the 1920s. It continuously reinvents itself with it's personal and empowering lyrics backed by imaginative musical arrangements. The sound travels through various emotional identities, calling upon these free-form jazz traditions, as well as pushing the boundaries of what is expected by a musical artist.
