N2  - Traversing luscious, big band swing, head-nodding boom-bap rhythms, and yearning vocal melodies, the album is expansive, soulful, and moving, in both body and spirit. Alfa achieves his most fully realized, expressive musical work to date, coupling his keen ear for looping, memorably emotive piano melodies with intuitive grooves and a free-flowing jazz improvisation
