The first track on this album is potentially a little misleading, sitting firmly as it does in Bad Plus piano power trio territory (it's even an Aphex Twin tune, a band the Bad Plus also covered on their debut). But the further in we go, the more the music goes beyond fast tempo angular deconstruction and is more embracing (pun intended) of broader influences, including chamber music, world and funk. An odd formula on paper perhaps but one which the RM 3io pull off with apparent ease, distilling a disparate brew of influences into a single and individual style ; engaging melodic exploration; unstoppable rhythm and an insistent dynamic sense - altogether very modern jazz (Dave Foxhall)
