Meditation Tape by Marquis Hill
“Hill’s smooth tone and striking improvisation are enhanced by the trio of musicians who lay down a rich and dreamy foundation for the trumpet player. Keyboardist Brett Williams pulls tones from the Fender Rhodes that are reminiscent of R&B and dance synthesizers. All the while electric bassist and drummer Junius Paul and Makaya McCraven lock into solid beats, intentionally placing and displacing 16th notes. The musicians establish a stable sense of time, yet their playing remains light to the touch.” - All About Jazz
