Roz Milner It’s a free jazz good record that reminds me a lot of Art Ensemble of Chicago at their quieter moments, like the 50th anniversary record

about

"Inhale and exhale slowly, this is a multi-layered album to give yourself to. A warm blanket that will envelope you as it ebbs and flows. An ocean tide that has no beginning or end. It just is. It just exists. Completely sublime. Drop the needle anywhere on the first track of this compact disc, and you will be instantly drawn in. It's ever changing, flowing, organic, and seemingly effortless.

It fades effortlessly into track 2, and a vocal emerges. An ethereal incantation to spellbind the sea of instruments. The ensemble gives in to ambiance, disappearing into the ether. So lovely. Time suspended. In the latter section musical patterns gradually interweave. A bass ostinato holds everything down, while the guitar spits out disentangled notes. In the end, it all gives out to static noises and ultimately nothingness." - Philo
