The first studio LP in five years from London jazz scene's breakout stars traces new ground.

It’s brave, accomplished, daring and wonderfully catchy in ways you don’t expect.

The unstoppable momentum of hypnotic build-ups and genuinely unique, masterfully maintained combination of moodiness and muscular physicality that characterises Feeding The Machine place Binker & Moses far ahead of the combination.

Luthert’s manipulations merely serve to highlight, loop or amplify the moments of greatest connection between the pair – proving that this is one of jazz’s most exciting young outfits.

UK jazz masters step boldly towards their own event horizon.

In a loose sense, Binker and Moses’ Feeding The Machine is a multiform sonic endeavour that exhibits zealous free jazz crossing tangents with ambient, electronic and minimalism.

Feeding The Machine is an incredibly intense experience. Akin to a tornado, it’s an album that sucks you deep into its heart and sweeps you skywards.

The focus on deeply intuitive, sophisticated improvisation integrated with Luthert's instinctive, tasteful electronics is welcoming, adventurous, and abundantly creative.

The sax of Binker Golding and the drums of Moses Boyd are joined by the modular synths of Max Luthert on this wild, atmospheric fourth album.

A sprawling and holistic spiritual jazz journey from drummer Moses Boyd (whose past work I am a fan of) and saxophonist Binker Golding, which also boasts a twist in the form of Max Luthert's subtle electronics (akin to Floating Points' work on 2021's 'Promises'). The album remains consistently ambitious throughout its 6 mostly lengthy tracks, even if the most avant-garde tracks like 'Active-Multiple-Fetish-Overlord' appeal the least to me personally.
