Layered with orchestral arrangements, jazz improvisation and Hip- Hopproduction, 'Liberation' is an accomplished record of courage, musical
conviction, and growth.
Known for his sophisticated compositions, Sylvester Uzoma Onyejiaka II AKA Sly5thAve's first experiences with large-scale arranging were with the Club Casa Chamber Orchestra and recording instrumental covers of popular modern songs.
Notably, his orchestral tribute to Dr. Dre, 'The Invisible Man,' garnered widespread praise and attention, even earning the admiration of Dr. Dre himself. Through these recordings Sly5thAve felt he had found a way to make people connect with orchestral music; "I've long felt orchestras around the world are inaccessible to most people – whether it be the programming or the cost, or the location".
The LP is Sly5thAve's first full album of original orchestral arrangements and features the musicianship of Sly5thAve's collaborators and Ghost Note
bandmates - headed by Snarky Puppy's multi-Grammy–winning percussion duo Robert "Sput" Searight and Nate Werth, alongside previous collaborator Roberto Verástegui. Sly5thAve's passion for collaboration is expressed on singles from 'Liberation', as he revitalises the beloved Destiny's Child classic "No, No, No Pt. 2" with help from Jonathan Mones; through the MonoNeon bassline of "Monoxide" featuring MacKenzie on vocals and guitar from Peter Knudsen; and on closing track "Big Brother feat. Daniel Wytanis", a track that features and pays tribute to both Robert "Sput" Searight and Nate Werth, alongside Ghost Note member and mixing engineer Ben Burget.

Quality Product and service
Sent In By: Damian Roebuck on 17 May 2024I recently bought a couple of RSD releases online from Discrepancy Records. I found the process to be easy to get through and very professional. The records were excellent and delivered quickly in high quality mailing boxes.I also liked the little extras that were included in my package. Inner and outer plastic covers - and again, good quality. I will definitely buy from Discrepancy again, and recommend them to anyone.
