Blue Bottle’s Notes in Repose is their first LP release, a work featuring 11 contemporary jazz compositions which were performed and recorded in their cafes in different markets. Participating artists include Gary Bartz with Adrian Younge and Ali Shaheed Muhammad, Makaya McCraven, Jeff Parker, Angel Bat Dawid and the Kyoto Jazz Sextet. The project was created as a way to celebrate its Signature Blends, including Giant Steps, named after John Coltrane’s seminal album. Blue Bottle views the tension of jazz akin to the blending and roasting of their coffee. The 12″ LP is pressed in heavyweight 180g vinyl and runs 44 minutes.
