Very well-performed, well-engineered.

I find the emphasis on atonality to be pretty old-fashioned in a way that isn't appealing.

What a coincidence! I recommended Miguel’s music to a sax player I met last night at a rehearsal and then realized it had been awhile since I checked out his recordings. Listened to Golden City twice in the car and loved it!

I only recognized Alan Ferber’s sound and thought I’d look up the personnel tonight.

Congratulations!
