Moor Mother – The Great Bailout

Sonically, this suite continuously transforms by folding different time-spaces on top of each other. Funereal keyboards and ethereal harp echoes give way to haunting trumpet improvisations over stark trap beats; choral spirituals emerge from gritty bass drones; spectral strings are set against glitchy samples. But this is not just music. This is quantum physics; temporal alchemy; ancestral communion; vibrational magic; spirit channeling. These sounds & words are ultimately an act of liberating history from the colonial clutches of a linear timeline, whose violent inertia charges forward to a hegemonic and apocalyptic horizon.
