Album Notes & Community Reviews

The debut solo album from the prolific Swedish flautist and composer is an infectious, groove-heavy exploration of progressive jazz-fusion. 'Ramadan' seamlessly blends traditional jazz improvisation with hard-hitting funk rhythms and subtle Middle Eastern melodic scales. It established Lindh as a leading figure in the European crossover jazz movement and remains a highly influential release among funk and hip-hop producers.
