Jalen Ngonda honours soul music&#39;s rich history while pushing it forward into new territory, an artist who’s both archivist and explorer, a disciple of the greats actively shaping the future of music. Having spent the last three years growing this new soul vision from small clubs to arenas and festivals across world Ngonda stands poised to become the new spokesman of authentic soul with the release of his second album ‘Doctrine Of Love’ whichtakes the template established with Come Around And Love Me, and distills it further down, a perfect tight blend of vintage soul authenticity reinterpreted for a modern sensibility. Swinging drums, soaring strings and scratching guitars lead into Ngonda’s irresistible falsetto playing with call and response with the backing singers. Every track sounds like a new Northern soul discovery or a hidden and undeclared Wu Tang sample. The trick lies in making the album the sum of the parts of life steeped in every aspect of vintage soul music and studio production without sliding into pastiche and cliche, and its a test the album passes with bright shining colours.
