Vintage Reviews:
Sweet grooves and soulful tunes from this Philly collective – a surprisingly nice batch of tracks that sparkles with the spiritual depth of recent work from the London scene! The lovely Ellie Perez lends her lead vocals to about a third of the tracks on the set – making for some really great tunes that have a drifting cosmic feel, tripping lightly with lots of great keyboard work! Titles include "Come Alive", "Luscious", "On The Rise", and "Free My Mind" by Ellie Perez; "Between", "Koln Shivers", and "Spiders Etude" by Fractured Reverb Underground; "Hollands Tunnel" and "Blur" by Jazzheads; and "Loves First Night" by Barry Meehan. -dusty groove

Bathe gracefully in the deep, cleansing, soothing, gentle, experimental luxuriance of jazzy lushness. You can thank Philly’s own Tim Motzer (guitarist/multi-instrumentalist/producer for
Les Nubians, Ursula Rucker, Kenny Lattimore and King Britt’s Sylk 130) for dishin’ out this 65-minute trip through a downtempo dreamscape that caresses your relaxing head and massages your soul. Motzer strings together previously recorded tracks from an array of his own projects and collaborations to yield a seamless, continuous mix of supple, multicolored goodness. So, soak in the soulful, trip-hoppin’ atmospheric vocal verdure and lyrical sweetness of Ellie Perez and Barry Meehan. Crawl into the subterranean, sax-laden, organic nu jazz of the Jazzheads. And let yourself free-fall weightlessly to the beatless ambience and glitch-y experimentation of Global Illage and Fractured Reverb Underground. Let Motzer do the talking while your soul does the walking, and your body can sit back with headphones and some cushiony pillows.
