A collection of sonic mantras to live by, SOURCE is a deeply personal offering in which Garcia charts her identity, her family histories, grief, afro-diasporic connections and collectivism. Her erudite blend of broken beat, soul, dub-step afro-diasporic sounds - from cumbia to calypso expands further on this record, all whilst never losing her deep jazz foundation. The album takes as much inspiration from Herbie Hancock and Wayne Shorter as it does from Flying Lotus, Calypso Rose, Mala and Nidia Góngora. SOURCE is about a radical, relentless belief in our capacity to surmount the individual and collective challenges we face now, and those to come.
