Continiung on the path he marked out with his Prototype and Mystikal albums of recent vintage, Roney and his extended family (brother Antoine plays tenor sax and composes; wife Geri Allen is a star on piano), including turntablists Val Jeanty and DJ Axum adroitly mix contemporary rhythmic statements with post-bop forms on cuts like Vater Time and Fela's Shrine (for Afro-beat master Fela Kuti). It might be cliched but this is a disc that rewards multiple listens.
