Ill Considered are all about making freely improvised music. They start with a loose theme and build from there with deep grooves and plaintive melodies. So far since 2017, there have been no fewer than 15 albums on their own label. This special hand-stamped white label drop is limited to just 300 copies and features one piece on each side of hand-numbered wax. Over nearly 20 minutes, 'Track 1' (part 1) unfolds with dark drum work and expressive sax that conveys a smorgasbord of emotions. 'Track 2' (part 2) is a little less sure and intense, with a sense of mystery in the sax and the bass notes that linger down below.
