Ubiquity Records To Release Quantic's 4th Solo Album, An Announcement To Answer, On July 25 In North America

LOS ANGELES (Ubiquity Records) - Quantic's fourth solo album chronicles the ever-widening musical world of the Brighton-based producer, record collector, musician and DJ, broadening his musical palette of hip hop, jazz, funk and soul while still delivering the trademark funky grooves. Quantic is joined on the new album by Portland-based MC Ohmega Watts, Noelle Scaggs (The Rebirth), & Tempo (Candela All Stars) alongside Puerto Rican-based trumpeters Major and Javier Marrero. ??

This summer Ubiquity (via Tru Thoughts in England) are proud to present the fourth solo album by Quantic marking Will Holland's eighth full-length production. ??A year and a half in the making, An Announcement To Answer marks the next step in the evolution of Quantic's sound – broadening his musical palette whilst still delivering the trademark funky grooves that have made him a sure-fire floor-filler for DJs worldwide.??Inspired and educated (as opposed to influenced) by the records he discovered whilst travelling and working in Puerto Rico, Nigeria, Benin, Ghana and Ethiopia, Quantic has fused the traditional sounds of these countries with hip hop, soul, funk and jazz to produce his own potent musical brew.??

Much of the album was written and recorded on a laptop in various locations around the world – including Puerto Rico and the Candela studios in San Juan – during an extended period of international gigging and crate-digging.??Experimenting with new techniques and collaborating with the talented people he met during his travels has endowed Quantic's music with a greater depth, intricacy and level of sophistication than ever before.??Guest artists on the album include Noelle Scaggs from The Rebirth, Ohmega Watts and Puerto Rican percussionist Tempo, who has previously worked with Roberto Roena of the legendary Fania All Stars.??
