After a duo album – Live at Okuden (ESPDISK 5007CD, 2015) – and two trio albums – Live at Okuden (ESPDISK 5009CD, 2016) and This Is Beautiful Because We Are Beautiful People (ESPDISK 5011CD, 2017) – by Matthew Shipp and Mat Walerian, all for ESP-Disk”, they offer a quartet album that continues their strategy of working with different musicians each time out. Michael Bisio and Whit Dickey are long-time collaborators with Shipp, but the addition of Walerian”s Zen style changes the dynamics of their interactions. Walerian and Dickey, masters of restraint, were a match waiting to be made, and their instant rapport is one of the attractions of this album. Personnel: Matthew Shipp – piano; Mat Walerian – alto saxophone, bass clarinet, clarinet; Michael Bisio – bass; Whit Dickey – drums.
