**Imagine Sun Ra-meets-Actress on this stunning, deeply experimental, electronic jazz set!**

'Griots' sees Detroit-based, jazz drummer Gerald Cleaver further exploring the depths of the electronic music scene that's rich in his Motor City hometown; combining these influences with his personal musical background. Cleaver has for years been one of the leading drummers and composers in New York's jazz scene. Griots is all about spontaneity, dealing with a wide range of influences and ideas, blending them in an at times gentle, at times ferocious flurry of rowdy synthesis, FM tones and muted drum machines.
