maoltod I love the instrumentation on this album. Acoustic and electronic sounds are seamlessly integrated.

The longer pieces are these beautiful, sometimes groovy, meditations that develop wonderfully.

Plus, some bass clarinet + bass unison parts, which is a not-so-secret weapon for deep grooving. Ask Herbie and Miles.

Wonderful music, Joe. Favorite track: Second Wind.
