Moments Worth Listening For
The eerie, shimmering integration of solar magnetic field recordings on the title track that grounds the quintet in a cosmic space.
The rhythmic shift into the 'River Samba' where the quintet's tight interplay creates a buoyant, flowing momentum.
Tom Harrell's exceptionally lyrical flugelhorn solo on 'Dream Text' that feels like a whispered secret.
