Album Notes

Padmanabha’s collaboration with master hornman Daniel Carter, wipes them away. An organic blend of music that mixes fine jazz playing with exotic sonic atmospheric touches, only 3 of the 60 minutes on this disc are devoted to crashing and roaring. The rest is one improvisation after another of Carter’s creamy tone on trumpet and sax paired with Padmanabha’s chilled rhythms and seamless electronic looping, from the shuffle of “Story Out of Print” to the tabla on “The Jewel Is in the Lotus” to the hand drumming on “Remembrance”, which glides on Carter’s buttery clarinet. Self-released and modestly packaged, this CD brims with originality and an ancient, spiritual vibe and is a true find. For more information, visit www.utechrecords.com and www.ravipadman.com
