On “Formwela’s 7-13” spalding is joined by drummer Francisco Mela, pianist Leo Genovese, guitarist Matthew Stevens, and saxophonist Aaron Burnett.Įarlier iterations of the lab took place in Wasco County, Oregon, and Portland, Oregon - where the first six pieces of music featured on the new album were created by spalding and include contributions from Wayne Shorter, Phoelix, Raphael Saadiq, Justin Tyson, Ganavya Doraiswamy and Corey King. Raphael Saadiq comes from United States and was born in 1966. Each night, the public was invited into the space to hear the music as it was formed, and hear spalding and researchers talk about intents and practices that went into each piece. The corresponding videos for “Formwela’s 7-13” were all filmed in New York City in June, when over the course of 10 days, the Songwrights Apothecary Lab created and recorded “Formwela’s 7-13” featured on the new album.
