Alfa Mist - Structuralism (2019) [Full Album] 

Here I am, I'm a 24 year old Brazilian trying to change my life. Right now I'm studying programming, because I need to change my life. Well, at the moment I work at a company where they don't value their employees, but I'm here! Trying to be better, but not better than anyone else and yes, better at what I can be. One day I will share this comment and smile with everything that happened. Everything will get better. At the sound of Alfa Mist, I will go very far.

we need Alfa Mist NPR tiny desk asap

As an anthropologist with a kink for lo fi, jazz, funk, and their electronic reinterpretations, how could I resist clicking on an album in my feed named "structuralism". Didn't disappoint.

My laptop’s on fire and it’s your fault,,, There was no need for grooves that nasty, chords so smooth and solos so haunting. Huge congrats to you and the band, this is a masterpiece

I've clicked through so many videos, through so many incredible, weird ambient landscapes... I feel like I'm going on a train trip, seeing a succession of crazy, never-before-seen scenes from history, important, weird musics through the window as I pass... there's so much to explore. So many places to alight and dwell in the ambiences that are on offer. This stop, in particular, is brilliant 🕊

"For me now what I'm realising is, I.. I'm done trying to.. treat people to their finished beings, because we all unfinished basically.. We all are unraweling, it's very unfare for me to act like I got you figured out.." WISE words, WISE

That Retainer's bridge to the second section of the song and subsquently Jordan's Door.... Dear God, this is pure music in flow!

Alfa Mist creates music that is not just good. But it takes you to a spiritual place of peace. I hope one day he tours the US. This is the music we need to get our sanity. Thank you and God bless.

this is what abstract art sounds like

i listened to this album all the time during my last years of high school and it's still carrying me through uni - timeless

Door is one of the best songs I have ever listened to. From originality to melody to beat to lyrics and singing. A true gift from Alfa Mist!

00:00 - .44 10:03 - Falling (Feat. Kaya Thomas-Dyke) 13:55 - Mulago 17:52 - Glad I Lived 23:44 - Jjajja's Screen 29:02 - Naiyti 38:24 - Retainer 45:13 - Door (Feat. Jordan Rakei)

Looking outside a window at night inside a building at the 27th floor in São Paulo downtown while i'm listening to this. Pure bliss.

Alfa Mist is being slept on big time ,I can just imagine as he gets older and goes through more of life what will come out of him. Alfa Mist ,Robert Glasper concert ft. Tom Misch,Yussef Dayes, Jordan Rakei, Mansur Brown

Music like this gives us the very best chance to connect and appreciate each other wherever we are. Chill. Most of us listening have gone through trauma that maybe nobody could understand but this calls us all to a higher ground. Beautiful. Thank you x

My friends don't listen to music like this, BUT I DO. Stay Blessed and Stay Beautiful!

Funny story: more than a year ago the Antiphon album appeared on suggested vids. A wonderful discovery! I played it over and over again for days and then slowly forgot about it. I tried months later to remember what was the artist or the album I played - unsuccessfully again and again. Then, two days ago, I started googling about the christian antiphons and bam! There it was, third google hit among videos! Man I was happy to find it again! :-D Played it again and started to search on any news about Alfa Mist. Got on Twitter, saw the news about new album coming out... Hm, 26th April 2019 ... thats like, one day wait! What a coincidence! Thank you for your wonderful music Alfa Mist!

this album is a real masterpiece

Mulago is life. from work, to work. Asleep and awake. It pours in my mind.

I’m an old timer long time jazz/fusion musician. My son just turned me on to this and I must say that I’m blown away! So much so that I just scored tickets to Alfa’s show here in Oakland, California . Totally excited to check out these great young players!

Yesterday found "Antiphon", spent the usual "go out time" listening to it... tonight, same with "Structuralism". You guys are ruining my social life lol. Great, great, great stuff.

This album is going to be my winter antidote.

dude... god bless youtube's algorithm

This will easily be on my top albums this year

I haven't listened to jazz in so long. I forgot how sweet it is❤....

His music here in UK and Robert Glasper state side....it's like a 2nd Birth of the Cool! Gratitude for great jazz

Alfa Mist reachs my top list every years. It was a pleasure to catch Alfa in Berlin at the Gretchen. So intimist and so true

It's been so long since an album made such a strong first impression on me

I'm glad I discovered the UK new age jazz scene.

Beautiful mix of jazz soul and hip hop. One of the coolest and most interesting things in recent years. Pure talent

EVERYTHING WILL DEFINITELY WORK OUT AND CHANGE FOR THE BETTER!

you know one in a life time something comes by and you are revived, touched, made new and you know you feel better, are better and going to be even better, that is how much this mans music touches me..... Thank Alfa, you are incredible

This album gives me goose bumps every time I listen to it.

I remember reading a comment here about a week after this was released saying how they'd kept on playing it over and over, and I scoffed to myself thinking it couldn't possibly be one of those albums, there's only about 3 of those in existence for me. But two months down the line I've lost count of how many times I've listened to this. Unbelievable. Thank you. South London ftw.

so grateful to share the world with musicians like these

Bless your creative mind 🧎🏾‍♀️❤️‍🩹.

all the millions of years of human evolution were worth it to come to this music and youtube's algorhythm

This is amazingly beautiful. Hearing this is like being in the presence of a timeless masterpiece. Much health, wealth, love and prosperity to everyone.

Fantastic laid back Jazz for the cool, calm and collective hip hop generation as well 👍

Omfg I'm so hype. I never clicked so fast in my life. We need real musicians like this!

Damn that last one with Jordan Rakei is amazing. Usually that sort of soft stuff with vocals is not my thing but Jordan Rakei's voice adds a touch of gold! Goosebumps for real..

This is really good, i must have listened to this at least 50 times by now. I discovered Alfa Mist at the La Villette Jazz Festival in Paris and they're just as good in concert :) Congratulations for your music.

Man I clicked on one 1970 Japaense Jazz video and youtube has been blessing me since. Just started listening to this and it is pure lava.......

I just discovered these wonderful beings of sound today. I've listened to 3 albums this being the 3rd today. When I say it was divine timing I really feel that in my soul. Today with these beautiful sounds vibrations and meanings I felt hope. I hope to one day see them live. Shed tears laugh and sway my hips and hands to the sounds.

Wow, what an amazing album. Pure talent and actual music. Thank you very much! God bless.

I (keep) sticking on this, it structures meself, don't wanna get out, it's heaven in my ears ! ... I'll tell you what/why (down there underneath...) ...not only Monsieur A. Mist is of of the rare mist I've heard as felt, but if guys around wanna know what an Artist is made of, in his own depth and all about, then here you've pushed the very right door. It's all there fine in your hears. Misty, soft, exquisite rapture then strength is taking you down within, gives you distance, looks and thoughts over. If one wants to get into introspection, this is the place. Then a soft indian summer rain is gonna wash it all out, renewing all the senses. I really hope that I'll see and listen Alpha Mist and Co. LIVE one day. For now I'm sending from South of France all my LOVE* to all the great musicians of this album, to whom & where I keep on coming back, on and on... * It is The Message, and the Only One ;-) ! (...pass it on !) ... Because LOVE is THE MESSAGE ! => ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-NwVtIPeYIeQ.html (Corrections of my English mistakes on this July 16th 2023... 'damn, did a lot of them, and still there must be some left 😡...)

Apparently the 117 thumbs down people don't know music or what sure Musical Artistry Is!!!! This gentleman Angel with his partner Youseff Dayes are Geniuses!!!! Thanks man for your ( Musical Rx ) for Depression........ 👏👏👏✌️💖😊........

I've been listening to this for several days now, i can't believe how it grows on me. How did i miss that?

Another masterpiece by Alfa Mist.

I have decided moving to London just to see performing this badass musicians!

love for this tape. endlessly. have been listening for years and the composition is still astonishing. a living legend in Alfa Mist.

What a FANTASTIC record. Just what we needed after the brilliance of Antiphon. I'm thrilled to see Jamie Leeming on guitar again, his playing has such feeling to it.

im a happy person. so happy to be able to listen to this. I really like your previous projects but this one is my favortite I think. "Glad I lived" is powerful.

This makes me happy and find peace. I'm gonna write poetry with your music. Thank you.

Listening from Nigeria…Jazz lover ❤🎉😊

I was waitin' for more after "Antiphon", saw this the other day, and went "!!!". Cheers Alfa. ✊

Artists come and go. Musicians are priceless. These grooves are masterfully produced. Your sophomore effort has us all in awe. My future grandkids will be influenced by this once they're born.

Just a phenomenal album!! And keeps on giving with each listen. Huge congratulations Alfa Mist. Authentic and awe-inspiring.

That second half of Retainer is some beautiful heart wrenching stuff, God damn

I just listened to this whole thing at 1.5x on accident.. it was an experience. Can’t wait to listen again at normal speed.

Alfa Mistˋs Sound is one of a kind, Love this Masterpiece!

This album cured me from a depression i didn't even know i had

This type of music saves lives

Too blessed to have found you in my ears tonight. Aug 2019 UK. Fabulous stuff that I was created to hear mmm thank you ☺️ 👏🏾💖👍🏾🥰

A true musical journey

Today I am grateful for the algorithm. I have listened before but “forgot” about him. Brought back from listening to Khruangbin.

This album is a masterpiece. Hats off guys!

This kind of music usually leaves me indifferent. I like it but just as background usually. But here, it got my attention. There is wonderful mind behind this, the music is never lost to a boring mood. Also, the strings are just amazing.

I am really thankful of all the good music that's appearing on youtube these days. Congratulations to the band itself

This is the best day of my life.

I can confidently say that Britain and South Africa are the best, leading jazz scenes- period!

Man the song with Jordan Rakei hits soooo nicely at the end of this album.

Can't stop listening to your music, it just hits the sweet spot on so many things I enjoy. Thank you for this album man

Thank u so much for this pleasure! Hope i can see you live someday! 💕

This album is really wonderful, I was suffering from writer's block to come up with ideas until I heard this sound and everything went back to the point of thinking genius thoughts again that gives me pleasure in life. Thanks for your work of art!

An absolutly must have album, a beautiful work, a deep jewelery... Alfa M. is a prince, who knows where some others are to gather them together, I'm tellin' you !

Love From South Africa! From antiphon to nocturn to this! Love it all

have been waiting on new material from this genius, thank you Alfa Mist!

This is such a fresh sound.. so unique... so much body and soul to it and so relaxing. This is incredible work. I'll be watching all your other albums too. May you be blessed to make more music! One of one.

I played this the other night as me and my girlfriend fell asleep together. We broke up in the morning, and I will always now carry this sadness whenever I hear the beautiful score paired to this ambiance. Oh Destiny, I am so sorry. 😔

Woo this is like the best random selection ever on youtube

Alpha Mist is a self taught musician. Blows my mind

Sun never sets in my heart.

Can't wait to hear this new album RIGHT NOW, been waiting, keep up the amazing music!

Every track a stunner. Hence why my favs keep changing :)

I would love to sit and drink a glass of wine with the programmers that made possible this suggestion. The algo that you have designed knows my taste so well

Hablando de belleza...la estoy escuchando ❤

O my god, this work it's espectacular, I love the strings, I love the trumpet, the keys, everything! I LOVE THE AMBIENT!!

Man I was so excited to see this get released. Well done.

Majestic, dreamy, beautiful!!! A treasure I'm very happy I found!

This will become a modern classic!

This is a fine album Alfa Mist - you have got together a great bunch of musicians. Great hooks, which set up the tracks and then change. A wide palette of instruments, timbres; and the string quartet blends in beautifully, testament to your great ear and arrangements. The spoken word, rap, and songs, and JAZZ make this such a varied album. And you are great live - I saw you at Village Underground, London.Quality music which should have a wide spectrum of listeners - music for grown-ups, young and older. Keep it going - music needs you!

this whole album is a masterpiece!

Falling, is just, wow, pure genius.

watching people talk about "antiphon" in the comments, then seeing its cover i realise thats the long lost album i was bumpin on my old laptop you did it again btw, amazing album

Uma verdadeira obra de arte !

alpha brainwaves induced by listening to Alfa Mist. Thank you to all the talented musicians on this wonderful album.

This album is doing something to my soul.

I didn't think I had time to listen to the whole album in one sitting... but I made time. Beautiful work

Molto molto ben curato:musica raffinata,senza dubbio.Complimenti Alfa!
