Album Description
Available in:
Synkronized is the fourth studio album released by Acid Jazz band Jamiroquai. Released in 1999, the album contains funk, disco, and acid jazz elements. It is also known for being the last Jamiroquai album featuring the band's more traditional line-up and sound.
"Where Do We Go From Here?" was described[who?] as the point of change within the group's sound, using rocks with a leap-frogging blues piano and tangy bongoes. The final song on the album "King For A Day", is a regal rock-operatic excursion embellished with fully orchestrated piano and strings, with lyrics relating to Stuart Zender, the band's bass player for their first three albums, who left the band during the making of Synkronized. It is noticeable that there is no bass guitar or bass synth sound within the song. Recording sessions for the album began with Zender installed on bass, but he left partway through the recording in mid-1998, and rather than credit Zender for the tracks he had played on, Jay Kay decided to scrap all the tracks and start again. Clips of two of these tracks were shown on MTV and have been bootlegged, although not in their full form. The clips display a much more Latin and fusion sound than the songs that made it on the final album tracklisting. An outtake from Synkronized, "Snooze You Lose", was later released on the mini-album "An Online Odyssey". The bass on the album is played on a synth bass by new recruit Nick Fyffe, in a style that is basically an imitation of the departed Zender. Didgeridoo player Wallis Buchanan made his last appearance on the song "Supersonic".
