UKジャズ・シーンを代表するプロデューサー／ピアニスト／MC、Alfa Mistによる6作目のアルバム。
『Roulette』は、彼自身が描いたSF的ディストピアの中で、転生と記憶、赦しと復讐をめぐる物語を音で紡ぐ壮大なコンセプト作品だ。

ジャズ、ソウル、ヒップホップ、エレクトロニカを自在に行き来するプロダクションは、Alfa Mistの持ち味である沈静と緊張のバランスをさらに深化させている。ピアノの硬質なタッチと重層的なビート、そしてミニマルなヴォーカルの断片が、近未来の都市を思わせる無機質な空間を描き出す。

彼がこれまでに見せてきた“内省的ジャズ”の系譜に、今回は哲学的なSFの視点が加わり、より叙事的で映像的な世界が広がる。
音のすべてが思考を促すように配置された、深い静寂と知性のアルバム。

On his sixth studio release Roulette, the prolific producer, songwriter, pianist and MC Alfa Mist has created his own sci-fi universe - a vast dystopia where themes of revenge, forgiveness and redemption loom large.

Alfa Mist’s albums have always tackled big themes. This time, however, he explores an imagined near-future in which reincarnation is discovered to be a potent tool linking dreams and past lives. But with this discovery comes consequences: ethical, moral and philosophical. “If reincarnation is real, how does that shape society?” he explains. “If reincarnation means accumulation of knowledge, would you share it and enable everyone to understand more about the world? Or do you struggle for power? And do some people want to stop others from remembering who they were?”
