Album Notes & Community Reviews
Led by drummer Malcolm Catto, the London collective debuts with a mesmerizing, analog-heavy fusion of cosmic jazz and raw breakbeat funk. Heavily inspired by the otherworldly arrangements of Sun Ra and David Axelrod, 'Out There' provides a deeply psychedelic, instrumental backdrop that feels entirely untethered from modern eras.
