Comparing Notes on Creativity Between Virgil Abloh & Shabaka Hutchings for “Jazz Hours”
In this "Jazz Hours" conversation, Virgil Abloh & Shabaka Hutchings compare their notes on creativity.
Theme: exploration in how Virgil & Shabaka operate in regards to creativity within pre-existing structures. With the music off and texts in hand, they delve into some underlying principles & logic in both of their artistic practices.
About our guest, Shabaka Hutchings:
Over the last half decade, Shabaka Hutchings has established himself as a central figure in the London jazz scene, which is enjoying its greatest creative renaissance since the breakthroughs of Joe Harriott and Evan Parker in the 1960s. Hutchings has a restlessly creative and refreshingly open-minded spirit, playing in a variety of groups—most notably, Sons of Kemet, The Comet Is Coming, and Shabaka & the Ancestors—and embracing influences from the sounds of London’s diverse club culture, including house, grime, jungle, and dub. “The common theme in my career as a jazz musician has been wondering if what I’m doing is the thing that I should be doing,” says Hutchings, who studied classical clarinet at college at London’s prestigious Guildhall School of Music & Drama. “Me learning about jazz, how to play and interpret, was always a case of just trial and error. I think where I’ve come to recently is I’ve stopped trying to think ‘Is what I’m doing valid? or ‘Is what I’m doing part of the jazz tradition?’ and just see myself as a musician.”
