Although this album is nearly a year old, I just got hold of it last week - it's been spinning more or less continually since then. Maybe somewhat fancifully, I hear them as working in the musical space opened up by the duets of Coltrane & Elvin - & then Coltrane with Rashid Ali. The impact of the electronica in their last two releases has worked to open up their music in quite subtle ways, & is present more as an embellishment than a "third instrument".
