Odważny, ale i wycofany, spokojny, a zarazem umiejscowiony w kontekście chaotycznego świata album awangardowego kalifornijskiego trębacza. Ukłony w stronę Roy'a Hargrove'a i Roscoe Mitchella.

Ambrose Akinmusire follows his acclaimed, genre-busting bestof-2018 manifesto "Origami Harvest" with another visionary statement on his new album "on the tender spot of every calloused moment," which finds the trumpeter examining blackness on an uncompromising set of modern jazz laced with a heavy feeling of the blues. The album presents 11 new compositions by Akinmusire and features his quartet with pianist Sam Harris, bassist Harish Raghavan, and drummer Justin Brown with guest vocals from Genevieve Artadi and Jesus Diaz.
