      These guys finally got me into Jazz! Was already casually listening to the classic greats but now I'm adding Alfa Mist and Christian Scott to my rotations. Jazz got so good when I wasn't looking.

    Gorgeous! Gina d'Soto's voice is fantastic, I also agree with the person saying that keyboard is a pain, but just from previous work on an audio programming /engineering project I wish we could make keyboards in general better. I'm a pianist, and Axel Tosca was amazing on it but apart from how easy misfires on them are there's so much I'd wish they'd change for piano sounds at least.
    I also got into jazz with you but also just enjoying music again in general. So thank you!

Gina's vocals were amazing. Abdias solos were spot on, Seb and TJ had the rhythm section on lock down as always. Bravo guys!!!

    Beautiful pieces, thanks much. I also like the drumming style, it breathes a 'less is more' vibe which we need so much today, as opposed to 'circus ' performances with jumping acrobats (cymbals) every few seconds. 🙃

    I just ran across you guys. Y'all sound good! I was just explaining to some brothers here in the mother land. That Africans were dispensed all over the westen Hemisphere because of slavery. And it's according to were the boat landed that determined what language we spoke. Some us speak Spanish some of us speak Portuguese, some us speak English but we are still Africans. And that's why you cats dig Afro- Cuban music, Reggae music, Jazz music, hip hop, funk,, and soul music. It's all African music can you dig it.....😂😅

    Wonderful! As an ageing Jazz and Latin and Fusion enthusiast I absolutely love it when such young talents are transferring vibes from mid 20th century to our times. And what's even more special: not by cover versions of the old standards, but by their own original compositions. My favourite here: 'Cómo Remolino'. Well done! I'll stay tuned ...
