Ricardo Villalobos has curated a new remix compilation of work by Sun Ra Arkestra.
The 12-track When There Is No Sun sees the likes of Underground Resistance, Calibre, Chez Damier, A Guy Called Gerald and Villalobos himself rework material from the Arkestra’s 2022 album Living Sky. The compilation also makes use of 2023 release My Words Are Music: A Celebration Of Sun Ra’s Poetry, which saw the likes of Saul Williams, Tara Middleton and Mahogany L. Browne deliver spoken word pieces inspired by the late musician’s poetry.
Listen to Underground Resistance’s Saul Williams-featuring take on ‘When Angels Speak’ below.
Omni Sound will release When There Is No Sun on 27 March 2026.
