IT WAS A DIFFERENT WORLD BACK THEN.
THERE WAS A TIME
BEFORE YOU COULD AMPLIFY SOUND WITH ELECTRICITY,
BEFORE YOU COULD ACCUMULATE SOUND IN PLASTIC
AND BRING IT FROM ONE CORNER OF TELLUS TO ANOTHER.
THIS IS THE REMIX. KEEPING IT SIMPLE AND RAW.
THREE VOICES STUBBORNLY CREATING THE CORE OF ALL MUSIC; RHYTHM!
CANDLES STILL FLICKER, THE FREQUENCIES OF YESTERDAY STILL RESONATE.
THIS IS ACOUSTIC RETRO-FUTURISM.

Magic in its purest form. I love Floating Points, I love Pharoah Sanders, I love The London Symphony Orchestra. It's a match made in heaven, and the result is absolutely gorgeous. I have loved this record since its release, and realized I don't own it for some reason. So its time to change that. 9.5/10 honestly could become a 10/10 on an indepth vinyl relisten. angrypizza98
I've fallen for this one completely. Have heard it on repeat. Lucia’s singing is so touching and the accompaniment is fantastic. Experimenting and free, but still accessible and melodious. Definitely one of my favourites of 2020. emilbach
I was brought here after listening to a live performance of Makaya's on you tube. I instantly loved the song Holy Lands so much that I had to see if the album version was the same rendition as the live one. Then I listened to the whole album! Universal Beings is a just a groove... It's a mix of traditional and something new, very nice. pandr1900
Based around the question “What is trust?” the latest from Michele Thomas is a bewitching combination of jazz and soul. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 27, 2022
