Featuring elements of soul, jazz, hip hop and rock mixed with dozens of assorted flutes, horns, vibes, and homemade percussion instruments, the album draws from a myriad of influences that give it an almost cinematic feel. Tracks to check out include “Mojave Dervish,” the ethio-sounding “Zero G’s,” the syncopated rhythms of “Juju Beans,” “Lock Pop,” “Double Dribble,” and “The Wash”. That said, every track bumps in it’s own unique way, and the music will have you flipping the record back and forth on repeat. The album is full of visionary instrumental tunes that pay homage to the past, present and future. 12 tracks in all, released by Aural Tradition.
