In the flow, you can hear callbacks to some of the great free-jazz innovators - the wide-ranging tonality of Tony Williams's ride playing, the "multi-directionalism" of Rashied Ali - seam- lessly incorporated into a style that feels individual but also bigger than just him, as though he's holding the kite strings while greater forces are at work. Fraser's movement from dull clanging death knells to thumping snare drum to cascading cymbal action is breathtaking, a constant shape-shifting that never feels rootless or contrived, the perfect balance between total control and complete surrender. Mark Streeter, Now Magazine "It's the push-and-pull (between order and disorder) that makes this such a vital and compelling listen."
