Hard Rain

Hard Rain follows hot-on-the-heels from the acclaimed Ruby Rushton album Ironside, but whereas contemporary urban jazz was the focus there, Tenders solo record marks a return to another of the multifaceted artists skills: dope house and beat music that oozes futuristic funk. This sparse but perfectly-populated masterpiece takes inspiration from J Dilla and echoes elements of vintage Blaze, Larry Heard and Carl Craig. Warm and soulful, but also spacious and clean, Tender extracts maximum flavour out of just a few ingredients.
