Album Notes & Community Reviews
The British-Bahraini trumpeter explores the concept of the 'inner saboteur'鈥攖he voice of self-doubt鈥攐n this mesmerizing, highly acclaimed album. The record brilliantly merges complex, psychedelic jazz fusion with the quarter-tones and traditional percussion of Arabic music, heavily utilizing a custom quarter-tone flugelhorn. It stands as a vital, deeply atmospheric milestone in the contemporary British jazz explosion.
