Review: Darryl Baalki - Songs That Won't Be Silenced EP (Deeppa Records)

Here's some deeppa spiritual jazz house that won't be silenced on digital and 12".

You might recall Third Attempt's 'Sky Is The Limit' EP came out on Deeppa Records (for an up-to-date Third Attempt, check out his latest EP and YATM interview HERE) and here's Darryl Baalki genre mix in the form of a six track EP.

Don't expect any interviews with the enigmatic Darryl Baalki but what we do know is that he is such a student of jazz and jazz-funk, as a base line, this guy is in total control.  Check 'Paper Planes' or 'Nothing Will Break You' which adopts soulful Theo Parrish with trumpet highlights and percussion that refuses not to dance.

Not sure if the spoken word is "Richard Burton", "Vincent Price" or Darryl himself but it crops up on the title track and 'Devil May Care' and ready for some voodoo beats, you need 'Dansu Dansu Dansu'.

In an effort to look to the future, there's no harm in assimilating the past and Darryl's 'Paper Planes' needs it's own runway for take off.
