Multi-instrumentalist Tom Funk works under the pseudonym Sultan’s Swing for this vinyl only 10 track Jazz voyage. Straddling both the past and the present ‘Metamorphosis’ is an accomplished collection of mellow head nodders in the form of the piano led ‘Black Caterpillar’, the spacious ‘Thinking Back’ and the bass fuelled ‘What’s Right and Left’ while ‘Bossa Blue’ is a more urgent tempo, ‘Spiral’ has some killer keys and is the album’s strongest dancer and ‘White Butterfly’ brings a broken beat/future jazz feel to proceedings. ‘Inner Flame’ is also a highlight punctuated by a cosmic synth line that runs throughout and some spacey drums. Really solid, indie release that won’t be around long. Grab one!
