ngl this s*** lowkey boring
dont say that just about to start my first listen and I have high hopes
Getting overwhelmingly positive reviews which is great to see. If this is to be Pharoah Sanders' curtain call then it is a momentous one.

This is really beautiful but I didn’t expect it to be so mellow. Nevertheless, excellent album. Definitely one of the better projects I’ve heard this year
I always appreciate this kinda music but i know I’ll never listen to it again past a first listen because there’s just no real melodies to it, just rly dope musicianship

Was also surprised by that. Quite restrained, somber and contemplative. But there are flashes of intensity scaattered in which makes for a really beautiful result overall.
this really levelled up my commute today, def going to be my study music for the near future. Such a cool collab. On first listen also thought FP might've been a bit too restrained? But maybe the subtlety of his contribution was what makes it work, it was a great decision for sure to give Pharoah the spotlight
how is this??? been anticipating this but seen mixed reactions
nah it's rly rly good
You was expecting some Trap beats?
nah was expecting a heavier electronic sound cause floating points.
okay after 3 listens I think this is pretty sublime
i love this album so much

same here g. this is gonna have heavy replay value for me
this was pleasant i didn't like the orchestra though i'm trying to be in the abandoned tunnel
Gonna roll up and blast this to drown out the blues playing next door (I live next to a bar)
finally got to this and it was heavenly
you gotta be in the right state of mind and place to enjoy this but I thought it was very beautiful and spacious. listened to it while high and studying and felt like I was meditating
Sanders was a perfect choice here and I hope he gets his flowers for this project. can already tell I'm gonna replay this a ton
