We're New Again: A Reimagining By Makaya McCraven
To mark the tenth anniversary of I’m New Here’s release, XL Recordings presents a unique reimagining of the album by the acclaimed Chicago-based musician Makaya McCraven. Equally renowned and revered as a musician, drummer, sampler, beat-maker and producer, McCraven is widely regarded as one of the most exciting and original voices in modern jazz via a run of records that were at once genre-defying and redefining such as Universal Beings, Highly Rare and Where We Come From (CHICAGOxLONDON mixtape) for the highly influential Chicago label International Anthem. As the New York Times states: “Makaya McCraven has quietly become one of the best arguments for jazz’s vitality.”
