About SLIFT:
Every previous album by the radiant and heavy French trio SLIFT—brothers Jean and Rémi Fossat and drummer Canek Flores, a friend since high school – has been a fantasia—a composite of genres and forms that allowed the band to improvise, to jam on themes until they seemed to spiral together into space. But, in a bit of intentional irony, SLIFT’s fourth album is called Fantasia without actually being one. It is, instead, their leanest and most direct record, a pointed saga about overcoming international upheaval delivered by a band bearing down without wasting a second. SLIFT didn’t want to lose the message by playing too much. They’re preparing for a battle they think we can still win.
As Jean Fossat wrote the core of Fantasia, he thought a lot about Jorge Luis Borges, the Argentinian author whose fiction deftly wove elements of magic and surreality into places and plots that almost felt real. (SLIFT even borrowed the song title “Orbis Tertius” from Borges.) Fantasia, then, is an imagined town plagued by a sense of unknowing and xenophobia, of trying to eliminate anything that disrupts the accepted order. The town comes into focus on “Corrupted Sky,” where Fossat’s narrator tries to dodge doom upon arriving there. Hope starts to emerge during the record’s back half, as people start to remember that they are more than their society’s oppressive uniformity. These eight songs, then, are about trusting in the power to fight back, however hidden it may seem.
About DOMi & JD BECK:
Nothing about it made sense. With their screaming virtuosity, utterly eerie mindmeld, and shrugging irreverence toward their own astonishing gifts, DOMi & JD BECK seemed beamed in from another dimension, and our familiar existence contorted itself to their presence. The year that they more or less arrived, they bowled over buttoned-up jazz fans with a cover of a Coltrane classic that they renamed “Giant Nuts,” they wowed blunt-puffing hip-hop heads with a dizzying 4 minutes and 20 seconds of live medley-ed Madvillain songs, and they rearranged the rules of pop by jamming with Ariana Grande and Thundercat on a pandemic-era livestream — Domi on keys, head bobbing to the beat while using all four limbs to make a band’s worth of sound, and JD on drums, looking like he’s having the chillest time of his life at roughly 1,000,000 BPM. And that was before they earned two GRAMMY noms including Best New Artist for a debut album (2022’s NOT TiGHT) that featured Herbie Hancock next to Mac DeMarco next to Busta Rhymes, released by the iconic Blue Note Records in partnership with Anderson .Paak’s friskier APESHIT, Inc. label. As their unclassifiable sound then whisked them to stages the world over, the duo were touted as Gen Z ambassadors between eras, genres, and energies… And then — poof! — they vanished, social accounts frozen in time, like the interplanetary visitors many suspected them to be all along.
So, you might reasonably ask, what happened to DOMi & JD BECK?

With their screaming virtuosity, utterly eerie mindmeld, and shrugging irreverence toward their own astonishing gifts, DOMi & JD BECK seemed beamed in from another dimension, and our familiar existence contorted itself to their presence. The year that they more or less arrived, they bowled over buttoned-up jazz fans with a cover of a Coltrane classic that they renamed “Giant Nuts,” they wowed blunt-puffing hip-hop heads with a dizzying 4 minutes and 20 seconds of live medley-ed Madvillain songs, and they rearranged the rules of pop by jamming with Ariana Grande and Thundercat on a pandemic-era livestream — Domi on keys, head bobbing to the beat while using all four limbs to make a band’s worth of sound, and JD on drums, looking like he’s having the chillest time of his life at roughly 1,000,000 BPM. And that was before they earned two GRAMMY noms including Best New Artist for a debut album (2022’s NOT TiGHT) that featured Herbie Hancock next to Mac DeMarco next to Busta Rhymes, released by the iconic Blue Note Records in partnership with Anderson .Paak’s friskier APESHIT, Inc. label. As their unclassifiable sound then whisked them to stages the world over, the duo were touted as Gen Z ambassadors between eras, genres, and energies… And then — poof! — they vanished, social accounts frozen in time, like the interplanetary visitors many suspected them to be all along.

Nothing about it made sense. With their screaming virtuosity, utterly eerie mindmeld, and shrugging irreverence toward their own astonishing gifts, DOMi & JD BECK seemed beamed in from another dimension, and our familiar existence contorted itself to their presence. The year that they more or less arrived, they bowled over buttoned-up jazz fans with a cover of a Coltrane classic that they renamed “Giant Nuts,” they wowed blunt-puffing hip-hop heads with a dizzying 4 minutes and 20 seconds of live medley-ed Madvillain songs, and they rearranged the rules of pop by jamming with Ariana Grande and Thundercat on a pandemic-era livestream — Domi on keys, head bobbing to the beat while using all four limbs to make a band’s worth of sound, and JD on drums, looking like he’s having the chillest time of his life at roughly 1,000,000 BPM. And that was before they earned two GRAMMY noms including Best New Artist for a debut album (2022’s NOT TiGHT) that featured Herbie Hancock next to Mac DeMarco next to Busta Rhymes, released by the iconic Blue Note Records in partnership with Anderson .Paak’s friskier APESHIT, Inc. label. As their unclassifiable sound then whisked them to stages the world over, the duo were touted as Gen Z ambassadors between eras, genres, and energies… And then — poof! — they vanished, social accounts frozen in time, like the interplanetary visitors many suspected them to be all along.
So, you might reasonably ask, what happened to DOMi & JD BECK?
