iTunes Review
A new breed of New Orleans brass bands — Dirty Dozen Brass Band, Rebirth Brass Band, Soul Rebels, and others — have been struttin’, swinging, and funkin’ it up since the early ‘80s. The Chicago-rooted Hypnotic Brass Ensemble evokes that tradition but this electrifying group clearly has its own thing going on — eight of the members of this nine-piece drums-and-horns ensemble are sons of trumpeter Phil Cohran, who played with Sun Ra. The album kicks off with the rousing “Alyo,” a piece written by the elder Cohran. Funky tuba and drums back a great horn chart and chanting vocals, immediately establishing the album's high energy level. The group’s original material is impressive, too; on tracks like “Gibbous” and “War,” HBE comes off like a revved-up R&B-flavored marching band. “Marcus Garvey” sports an attractive Spanish flavor, and on “Flipside” layers of horns slip and slide over each other in wonderful ways. “Party Started” is both elegant and groovy, and there are two versions of “Rabbit Hop,” a piece by the visionary composer Moondog. What more could you ask for?

SIzzle
Every single track on this album is hot!!! Cant stop listening to the songs without at least nodding my head. This album is best went ur volume is turned up real real loud! Very Nice. Must Buy...
roots of old into the new new
I am a devoted jazz listener, to me it is the pinnacle of music though I do get into hip hop, frank zappa, funk.
So I don't get many chances to be fired up over something that is actually new. Unless it is Buckethead, because he releases 3 albums a year.
This band, and album did that. Finally. Not since. MMW release End of The World Party have I been excited about any recent music.
Enjoy.
LOUDLY!
Brilliant.
Another excellent compilation from those great folks at Honest Jon's. The record store in Notting Hill in London is fantastic and they consistently release great stuff on their label by the same name. This is funky, jazzy big band brilliance. Check it out.
