This England-based dance and
funk, but mostly
jazz, band brings nothing but energy to this project. The production is sleek, and the arrangements are precise.
Maysa Leak reaches her higher notes without abandoning the fullness of her unwavering lower range. Half of the songs on this album utilize her vocals, while the others are instrumentals. The instrumental tracks feature
bebop-influenced solos, in particular
"L'Arc en Ciel de Miles," which is an admirable
tribute to the late famous
jazz trumpeter. However, each song's solo is just as riveting as the next. The one constant on this album is the steady strum of bassist
Randy Hope-Taylor. Contrary to the group's name, their music is anything but incognito -- it's excellent and as conspicuous as ever.
