The response to its modest, initial cassette\/digital release in January of 2019 was immediate, and immense. Within a month of its announcement, Dawid was being featured on magazine covers and receiving offers from international festivals; and her subsequent activity marked the beginning of an epic run of creative output (including her critically-lauded 2020 LIVE album with Tha Brothahood, the same year's EP Transition East, 2021's Hush Harbor Mixtape Vol. 1 Doxology, and the sprawling opus Requiem for Jazz, released in 2023) that continues through the present moment (hear: Journey to Nabta Playa, her recently-released collaboration with Naima Nefertari).\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe collection of compositions on The Oracle present a deep blend of powerful and emotive songs alongside heavy and free improvisation. In true DIY fashion, with pure presence and a spirit of creative abandon, Dawid recorded and mixed the album using only her cell phone, entirely. \"Angel's fieldnote approach affirms that the everyday remains a legitimate site of creative production,\" says percussionist, collaborator, and IARC labelmate Asher Gamedze in his liner notes for the album's IA11\u003cspan class=\"bcTruncateMore\"\u003e Edition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGamedze – the only other musician to appear on The Oracle besides Dawid, who constructed most of the album's tracks by layering, overdubbing, and arranging lo-fi symphonies of her own voice, wind instruments, percussions, and keyboards – waxes extensively about Dawid's significance in his notes, calling her \"a living exemplar and extension of the spacious sonic horizons opened by the likes of the AACM and their refusal of any limitations on their creative vision and the destruction of the demarcation between composer and improviser.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRevisiting The Oracle, it's abundantly clear that it was Dawid’s artistic vision and compositional skill that pushed the scope of her explorations so far. It’s how, despite their sonic contrast, the layered delay-drenched clarinet improvisations of “Black Family” or “Impepho” sit nicely with the unadorned fly-on-the-wall majesty of “London” or the nearly sidelong freedom of “Capetown” (which documents her first-time meeting with Gamedze, at his home in South Africa). The laid-back minor key gospel-folk of Dawid’s vocal tunes tie The Oracle together and sit similarly comfortable within the sides of the record.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGamedze gets to the essence when he writes: \"The album's profundity perhaps lies in its everydayness. Its beauty is in the worlds and work which are the music's root. What I do know is that it is a joy that this album exists. An instant classic with anthems ancient to the future. A totally idiosyncratic and grounded orientation to technology and production. A refusal of the lines between composition and improvisation. A multi-layered collage of history, struggle, organising and travel, both physical and metaphysical.\"\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArtist : Angel Bat Dawid\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabel : International Anthem\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ecat no : IMRC0023\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2025-09-18T11:42:47+09:00","created_at":"2025-09-16T13:03:26+09:00","vendor":"Tobira Records","type":"","tags":["international anthem","jazz","lp","new"],"price":396000,"price_min":396000,"price_max":396000,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":47723541659898,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Angel Bat Dawid \/\/ The Oracle (IA11 Edition) LP","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":396000,"weight":530,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"634457219359","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/angel1_bfda89af-02fb-4f12-be9c-05a5b4a52b0e.jpg?v=1757995280","\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/angel2_9a121396-ad45-461a-b029-3adbd7142f54.jpg?v=1757995280","\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/angel3.jpg?v=1757995280"],"featured_image":"\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/angel1_bfda89af-02fb-4f12-be9c-05a5b4a52b0e.jpg?v=1757995280","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":36819764052218,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":700,"width":700,"src":"\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/angel1_bfda89af-02fb-4f12-be9c-05a5b4a52b0e.jpg?v=1757995280"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":700,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/angel1_bfda89af-02fb-4f12-be9c-05a5b4a52b0e.jpg?v=1757995280","width":700},{"alt":null,"id":36819764084986,"position":2,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.333,"height":900,"width":1200,"src":"\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/angel2_9a121396-ad45-461a-b029-3adbd7142f54.jpg?v=1757995280"},"aspect_ratio":1.333,"height":900,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/angel2_9a121396-ad45-461a-b029-3adbd7142f54.jpg?v=1757995280","width":1200},{"alt":null,"id":36819764117754,"position":3,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.333,"height":900,"width":1200,"src":"\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/angel3.jpg?v=1757995280"},"aspect_ratio":1.333,"height":900,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/angel3.jpg?v=1757995280","width":1200}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInternational Anthemではおなじみアメリカ・シカゴのジャズ作家Angel Bat Dawidが、2025年9月にリリースした再発レコードです。（オリジナルは2019年リリース）\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eスピリチュアル・ジャズ8曲を収録。ブックレット付属。\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e※デジタル音源を無料でお送りいたしますのでお気軽にご連絡くださいませ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=4179588316\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/tracklist=false\/artwork=none\/transparent=true\/\" style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eレーベルその他作品は\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/tobirarecords.com\/collections\/inan\"\u003eこちら\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\/\/\/ Click \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/tobirarecords.com\/collections\/inan\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e to see more International Anthem releases available at Tobira. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e------------------------------\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAsk us for digital files.\u003cbr\u003e12\" black vinyl. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNew \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eIA11 version includes 8-page 11x11\" insert booklet with unpublished photos and new liner notes by drummer Asher Gamedze. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003eNOTE: vinyl contains album tracks 1-8. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e1.
