Universal Beings
Makaya McCraven ·2018
"Makaya is a drummer who lives in Chicago and he does improvisations with a lot of other really cool musicians like Jeff Parker, Junius Paul, Brandy Younger, who's a hot player who's really good. He records his improvisations and then he takes the recordings and cuts them up and makes them into compositions and beats and stuff, and they're so cool. I love this record."

Eghass Malan
Les Filles de Illighadad ·2017
"These three women... they sing in unison and it's extremely beautiful, riding on waves of meditative riffs and the percussive power. The resonant voices on this album are echoes of pre-modern life reverberating into the 21st century."

Conflict
John Carroll Kirby ·2020
"John Carroll Kirby is a piano player, contemporary now. I think this came out like two years ago, but it's so beautiful. My favorite song is 'Walking Through a House Where a Family Has Lived'—that is a beautiful song."

"Absolutely flawless. She just gets better; everything she makes, she's just... I just really feel like she's on one, like she's really fully going into herself and being a freak, and every song on this record is like unbelievable."

Notes With Attachments
Pino Palladino & Blake Mills ·2021
"Notes With Attachments by Pino Palladino and Blake Mills is a collaboration that sounds like a mix between improvisations and compositions. It's instrumental, and I just vibe with it; it vibes."
