Seven notes.
That's the only thing gathering electronic prodigy Floating Points, jazz legend Pharoah Sanders and the London Symphony Orchestra. Seven minimalist notes floatting in the air, seven notes deploying in a 46-minutes transcendental meditation worthy of the greatest classical, jazz and electronic work of art. The musical profundity found by the alchemy between those free entities is of such beauty that every variation around these seven notes move to tears. Pharoah Sanders brings a spiritual value to the record that transforms the album in a journey to the mystical depth of the human mind.
And that journey takes us to elusive lands. We now walk through ethereal landscapes, in a blue pale colour covering our senses in order to enchant our world. The music fades, then hammers, just like a tide neighbouring two moons, one full, and the other looking like a gentle smile. There's only a few compositions that sound like an enduring feeling of elevation. "Promises" is one of them, a music piece for eternity.
