Michael Kiwanuka - Small Changes (Vinyl)
Michael Kiwanuka has announced details of his fourth studio album ‘Small Changes‘, his first since 2019’s ‘Kiwanuka’. Co-produced with Danger Mouse and SAULT mastermind Inflo, Small Changes will arrive on 15 November via Polydor Records.
Recorded between London and Los Angeles, it's Kiwanuka's first album since becoming a father twice over, and features contributions from Jimmy Jam of Jam & Lewis and bassist-to-the-stars Pino Palladino.
The album announcement coincides with the release of two-part single "Lowdown", with "Part i" taking inspiration from Kiwanuka's love of '70s Afro-rock artists like Nigeria's Ofege and Zambian group Amanaz, who he says sound "almost like a '70s African take on The Velvet Underground," adding that the song is intended to be a "sort of throwback to that time in your life when you’re essentially a slacker in retreat from the world’s expectations.” With the string-soaked instrumental "Lowdown (Part ii)", Kiwanuka leans back into the extended guitar solos that he does so well.

PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
SHIPPING
Flying Nun offers free shipping in Aotearoa New Zealand on orders over $80. We have record stores in both Auckland and Wellington and will ship your record from whichever store is nearest. We aim to pack send your order next business day. Pick ups are also available from both stores.
