the kindred spirits ensemble is an orchestra initiated by kc the funkaholic to honour the legacy of john coltrane by playing beautiful arrangements of his music which can all be regarded as spiritual jazz. in 2006, on john coltrane's 80th birthday, kse's odyssey through spiritual jazz was performed at the amsterdam paradiso as an ode and tribute to the great musician. the concert was recorded for release, but the sound quality wasn't up to the right standard, so 'love is supreme' evolved into a studio project. two years later, that album is now finished, containing beautiful new arrangements of coltrane classics. this great first chapter of the ultra-hip contemporary collective bridges a space between older jazz expressions and 21st century style, showing that older music still has a strong influence on the younger generation, especially when the sound is as deep as this, with plenty of coltrane and pharoah sanders inspiration going on, but the execution is a bit different too — bits of strings amidst jazzy flute, keyboards, and trumpet lines — plus occasional vocals too.
