Ahmed - Nights on Saturn (Communication) (2021)

Astral Spirits - AS150 (US, 2021) 00:00​​​​​​​​ 1. Nights on Saturn (Communication) Personnel: Pat Thomas - piano Joel Grip - bass Antonin Gerbal - drums Seymour Wright - alto saxophone Recorded on December 5, 2019 in London. Produced by Seymour Wright. Ahmed is a quartet named after Ahmed Abdul-Malik, making disjointed heavy grooves with a lot of extended techniques, meant to be as far from your average free jazz as possible, yet still impossibly loveable and rhythmic. Seymour Wright, a champion of the Cafe OTO halls, appears and makes his usual multiphonic heavy performance, with the rest of the band backing him up like an RnB performance from the halls of hell. Enjoy!
