Our Take

WHIT DICKEY / WILLIAM PARKER & MATTHEW SHIPP - Village Mothership

Rating: 8.2

There are certain albums that transport you to another dimension, and WHIT DICKEY / WILLIAM PARKER & MATTHEW SHIPP's Village Mothership is one of those sonic spaceship rides. From the moment you press play, you are whisked away on a cosmic journey through the depths of avant-garde jazz.

The trio of Dickey, Parker, and Shipp is a formidable force to be reckoned with. Their chemistry is undeniable, as they effortlessly weave in and out of complex rhythms and melodies, creating a musical tapestry that is both mesmerising and otherworldly.

Tracks like "Interstellar Bebop" and "Cosmic Groove" showcase the trio's ability to push boundaries and explore new sonic territories. Dickey's drumming is like a pulsating heartbeat, driving the music forward with an infectious energy. Parker's bass lines are deep and soulful, grounding the music in a sense of earthiness. And Shipp's piano playing is nothing short of mesmerising, with his fingers dancing across the keys in a flurry of notes.

Overall, Village Mothership is a triumph of avant-garde jazz, a mesmerising journey through the cosmos that will leave you breathless and wanting more. So buckle up, dear listeners, and prepare to blast off into a musical universe unlike any other.
