about

"Less a blast through free jazz than a recontextualization of it, Honeysuckle still finds Oren and Hess riffing off each other at a breakneck pace. But instead of generating intense awe through sheer chops, they build some sort of fractalized microspore castle out their recordings, manipulating tape like Boredoms or Neu!, slathering on effects until the basic musical building blocks are rendered unrecognizable. This sets the mood in places, allowing the players to breathe, to explore the space, to stretch out and inhabit the weird corners of jazz that you may not often think of peering into."
-Ryan Masteller, Tiny Mix Tapes

"Opener “Climbing Up the Drain” begins with electronic waves, introducing textures that continue throughout the album, as both musicians augment their instruments with layers of electronic effects. As this pattern loops, layers of horn slowly enter, until Hess bursts onto the scene with vicious aplomb. Exploring opposite ends of the dynamic spectrum, “Honeysucker” gets down and dirty, touching on that free improv loft vibe duo exchange I dig so hard, whereas “Now Is Not the Time” blows sweet with flute echoes and soft percussion breezily flowing. This diversity in approach and execution keeps things fresh and exciting from track to track."
-Bob Bucko Jr., Ruix Zine

Just a beautiful jazzy rap album with buttery smooth flows versed with huge talent. It's not only lovely to the ears, but the lyrics are profound and empowering about the struggles that she faces. zhangtastic
