Electronic producer Floating Points and spiritual jazz legend Pharoah Sanders collaborate with the London Symphony Orchestra on this stunning meditation. The album consists of a single 46-minute composition that builds gradually, with Sanders's saxophone entering midway through Floating Points's hypnotic electronic patterns and orchestral swells. The piece creates genuine transcendence through patient development - layers accumulate slowly, creating immersive environments that reward deep listening. Sanders's playing, recorded when he was in his eighties, retains remarkable power and beauty. The London Symphony Orchestra adds grandeur without overwhelming the electronic and jazz elements. This is essential contemporary music that bridges multiple traditions while creating something genuinely new.
