about

Following the live Kind Mind recording from 2020 that focused on the 'intimate and inventive' style of improvisation the trio had been engaged in up till that point, this new full length studio album dramatically shifts the approach. Built around 6 new compositions by Josh Cole and guided by a heightened interest in shaping improvisations with electronics and samples (aided by Matthew Pencer and Sandro Perri), the music is intentionally distilled, the compositions presented with clarity, restraint, and minimal elaborations. There are of course moments when the improvisational characteristics from the live recording resurface, but these moments exist as part of the reflective narrative embedded deep within this recording.
