Jason Wayne Sneed - Guardians Of The Most Cosmic Shrine '2022

Tracks list

       "Guardians Of The Most Cosmic Shrine" is a collaboration between
bassist/producer Jason Wayne Sneed and trumpeter/composer Toshinori Kondo.
Friends for many years via correspondence between their respective home bases in
the US and Japan, Sneed and Kondo worked remotely to record the album after
meeting for a performance in Chicago in December 2019. Sneed produced the
original tracks with Kondo’s specific sound and personality in mind, and
Kondo recorded his parts at his studio in Japan. Several days after beginning
work on the album, Sneed received news that Kondo had passed away on October 17,
2020. “It took me a minute to grasp how heavy of a responsibility this is.
This album truly has his spirit in it. While working on it, I felt him with me
in the room and felt his energy surrounding me,” says Sneed.

"Guardians Of The Most Cosmic Shrine" has a deeply transcendental and meditative
quality, while incorporating influences from jazz, dub, electronic music and
more. It is a fitting final statement from an artist remembered by critic Nate
Chinen on NPR as “a sonic chameleon… whose daring instinct and deep
expressive resources slashed through a spectrum of experimental and ambient
music… a creative force until the very end.”
