Fantastic sounds from Flying Lotus – an artist who just keeps on pushing past any conventional expectations, to a point where his music is almost a genre unto itself!

The best yet from Flying Lotus – who we keep allowing ourselves to believe has hit an insurmountable peak with each new record – but he just keeps getting better!

Joe Ford on saxophone, Charles Fambrough on bass, Kenny Kirkland on piaqno and synthesizer, Vince Evans on synthesizer, and Darrell Brown, Jeff "Tain" Watts, and Nasar Abadey on drums. (Jazz) CD
A strong, rightly raw set from T-Model Ford – doing his thing on record as well as he has for years, but that's especially remarkable given that he was creeping up on 90-years-old when he made it! It's all acoustic, single take recorded numbers with spare backing on harmonica, guitar and ... (Blues) read moreCD

Wonderful work from a player we've loved for years – recorded here in just the sort of laidback setting that recreates all his charms in a live setting!
