Black Decelerant - the duo of Khari Lucas, aka Contour, and Omari Jazz - is responsible for one of the most beautiful records in recent memory. The music on “Reflections Vol. 2,” released on RVNG, is explicitly about slowing down. Its deeply personal music, tracing lineages of improvisational jazz and spiritual ambient into something uniquely powerful. The collaboration meditates on “themes of Black being and nonbeing,” bringing forth music that is quietly defiant and achingly profound. Imagine looking out of your window over a sprawling capitalist jungle, and feeling all the sorrow and beauty of that reality hit you at once. Black Decelerant’s music captures that duality. The music demands comfort and stillness. Come to Open Air prepared to melt into the darkest hours of the night.

𝘚𝘗𝘈𝘊𝘌 𝘋𝘜𝘚𝘛 ~ So happy to announce that Omari Jazz (@omarijazz ) joins Reflections on Friday, Feb 20, in Portland, OR, opening for Visible Cloaks (@visiblecloaks ).  Known for his otherworldly soundtracks and ethereal beatmaking, Jazz is also one half of the duo Black Decelerant. Their fantastic 2024 LP on @rvngintl is “an exploration of spiritual jazz traditions through contemporary tone and texture, exploring themes of Black being and nonbeing, life and mourning, expansion and limitation, and the individual and collective.” We can’t wait to hear him play in this historic Portland church, flooded with projection-mapped light. Tix available at our 🔗 in bio.

‘Plasma’ The final single before the full bonus disc arrives to streaming on 7/11 🌎 Probably the second oldest song on the record, early 2020 I think? Incredible animation by @slowya.roll (This is my fav of the 3❤️)

With the 5 year anniversary around the corner- I’m excited to finally share that ‘Dream Child’ is now available as a double LP with a gatefold sleeve! (In both Limited Color & Black vinyl versions) Purchase link in bio !! Eternal gratitude to @eulipionarts for helping me pull this record into the physical realm- alongside a new disc of songs from that era. Not much can beat the feeling of materially holding your own music ♥️ Excited for everything we have brewing~ Singles for the bonus disc and full dsp release are on the horizon, more soon ➕➕ Sending massive love to everyone a part of both records and to the folks still listening. The life-cycle of this project has been possible because of y’all- your support means the world!
