I have heard them here and there, but this is the first deep dive I have taken. Lots of interesting things going on musically and I can see why they are popular, but I must say the emotional tone in this particular set is pretty neutral. Doesn't have the punch of similar projects (e.g., Matana Roberts' Coin Coin, or Art Ensemble of Chicago's We Are On The Edge) to my ear. </p><p><a href="https://youtu.be/IU4vpE2eGho" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">youtu.be/IU4vpE2eGho</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>

A bit slick for my taste, but the musicians are all fantastic, sincere, and emotive.
