The LIFEFORCE TRIO was conceived and founded by CARLOS NINO (AMMONCONTACT, BUILD AN ARK, HU VIBRATIONAL, THE SOUND OF L.A. etc) and also includes DEXTER STORY. 'Living Room' features contributions from MIGUEL ATWOOD-FERGUSON, ANDRES RENTERIA and GABY HERNANDEZ, along with Nino's Ammoncontact partner FABIAN AMMON and special guests, DERF REKLAW, DWIGHT TRIBLE and JESSE. The Lifeforce Trio gained notoriety with their collaboration with DWIGHT TRIBLE on the album 'Love is the Answer' released on NINJA TUNE. When one hears music discussed in regards to "vibes" and "spirits," it's usually just a pretentious put-on; modern posers trying to resurrect a long-last studio magic. Unless, that is, you're talking about The Lifeforce Trio out of Los Angeles. The vibes and spirits at play on Living Room are very much the real thing: SLY STONES's funk and energy, SUN RA's spacey jazz genius, the manic passion of 'Trane (ALICE and JOHN), and most of all Nino's own coolly effervescent soul. In short: this is a Living Room decorated with generations of musical vibrancy.
