Universal Beings brings together Makaya McCraven’s recordings with musicians in New York, Chicago, London and Los Angeles. Released in 2018, the album transforms group improvisations through editing, splicing and post-production, connecting each city’s players within a four-part sequence. Contributors include Brandee Younger, Joel Ross, Tomeka Reid, Shabaka Hutchings, Nubya Garcia, Jeff Parker and Anna Butterss. This IA11 edition presents the complete twenty-two-track vinyl programme on two 140g black records, with a heavyweight reverse-board jacket, updated obi and printed poly-lined inner sleeves. A new sixteen-page booklet includes photographs and conversations with Ross, Junius Paul, Garcia and Butterss.
