Award winning alto-saxophonist and MC Soweto Kinch is one of the most exciting and versatile young musicians in both the British jazz and hip hop scenes. Undoubtedly, one of the few artists in either genre with a degree in Modern History from Oxford University he has amassed an impressive list of accolades and awards on both sides of the Atlantic -- including a Mercury Music Prize nomination, two UMA Awards and a MOBO for best Jazz Act in 2003. In October 2007, he won his second MOBO Award, at the O2 Arena, London where he was announced as the winner in the Best Jazz Act category- fending off stiff competition from the likes of Wynton Marsalis.

"The New Emancipation is my first full-length independent release, the journey to the creation and completion of this new work mean that the questions of freedom artistic and otherwise have a very personal resonance. 'Emancipation' from a limiting music industry, restrictive definitions of race, oppressive modern systems of finance is the thread that links all of the pieces."
