Recorded between San Francisco and London and brought together by the genius of Malcolm Catto at his analogue Quatermass Studio, the new recording represents another bold step in Ackamoor's ever-evolving journey in jazz, adding full, intricate scores including string sections and choral elements to the Pyramids' trademark spiritual Afro-jazz sound; Driven by the core Pyramids members Ackamoor (sax, keytar, organ), Margaux Simmons (flute), Sandra Poindexter (violin) and Bobby Cobb (guitar), tracks range from hard-hitting commentaries about police brutality ('Police Dem') to celebrations of the ancestors and departed loved ones ('Requiem For the Ancestors', 'Re-Memory') and hazy cosmic journeys, including the album's title track and the sparkling, experimental closer, 'Nice It Up'.
