The largely instrumental album “ranges from low-slung gnarly funk, head-nodding boom bap, psychedelic cosmic slop, wigged out leftfield, retro synth jams, jazzy afrofuturism, uplifting soul, and LA heat.”

“VWETO III is intended for movement,” explains Muldrow. “It’s to be played when you birth yourself back outside after a long introspective period to get the things you need.”

Muldrow is also asking visual artists, vocalists, dancers and DJs/producers to interpret and respond to a series of singles from the album, which will be shared over the coming months.

An NFT of the album and its Breeze Yoko-designed artwork is also being auctioned online, with 50% of the proceeds being donated to Critical Resistance. Bidding will end on the 21st May.

VWETO III follows her Mama, You Can Bet! album under her Jyoti alias, in 2020.
