In The Moment

Pared from nearly 48 hours of live, improvised performance, recorded at one venue over 12 months & 28 shows. MAKAYA culled, cut, rendered & remixed the mass of sounds into 19 potent pieces of organic beat music. From local luminaries of post-rock (Jeff Parker of TORTOISE) to left-field hip-hop, the stage was made as a proving ground for style experiments based in jazz & hip-hop but faithfully receiving the spontaneous summoning of a host of subconscious influences. From free jazz to krautrock to downtempo house, what they arrived at was a new lexicon w/in an improvisational framework.
