Led by the title track “From Above” (sample 1)—a bossa nova-flavored jazz house track featuring the flugelhorn—the album showcases a smooth jazz house sound through the masterful use of a diverse array of instruments and tones. From “African Girl” (sample 2)—a soulful track featuring free-flowing keyboard work and powerful lyrics—to “Chucho” (sample 3), where a low-end groove is vividly embellished with light-footed keyboard playing, this is a superb album that showcases the depth of jazz house from multiple angles!
