"Features the British jazz pianist and composer teaming up with soundtrack and library music legends Duncan Lamont, Art Themen, Ray Russell, and Clark Tracey, as well as two of London's most forward-thinking artists in drummer and producer Moses Boyd, and Heliocentric's Malcolm Catto ... The remarkable seven-track recording nicely fuses together post-bop jazz melodies and freeform horn solos with downtempo folkscapes, atmospheric textures, and soulful cosmic tones. The music is beautifully moody and haunting, in what feels at times very cinematic or soundtrack-like. Overall, this is Greg Foat's most adventurous record to date, capturing a sense of British mysticism that is as wildly mesmerizing musically as the album's cover art. Highly recommended!".
