Album Notes & Community Reviews

The endlessly innovative saxophonist continues his pioneering experiments by extensively running his instrument through various electronic effects and pedals. Fleshed out by lush brass and woodwind arrangements, the sessions successfully bridge the gap between soulful hard bop phrasing and futuristic, voltage-controlled textures.
