ALBUM

This fourth album from the unique British jazz ensemble is the follow-up to 2009's Isla. Recorded by Greg Freeman (Goldfrapp, Roni Size), it sees the band experimenting with electronica, layering a miasma of gaseous keyboards over heavily syncopated beats both programmed and live. Atonal free sax bleats compete with warm and soothing melodies and the band's signature instrument, the steel drum-esque hang, is muted into the background texture. The album also features a guest performance on the track "Steepless" from Sweden's Cornelia Dahlgren.
