INALIENABLE

"Strong bass lines from Ken Edwards and Yair Katz’s lively drumming form a bedrock on which the sinuous lines of Elaine Edwards’ soprano flourish, with Dervish-like circular excursions, notably on Inalienable and Time Is Now/Tixerb Kufyeh (anagrammatically subtitled for Remainers)."

– review by Matthew Wright, Jazz Journal

"As influences they cite Middle Eastern music, Japanese Kabuki theatre, Frank Zappa, John Coltrane, Xenakis and Steve Reich - an eclecticism which typifies the possibilities for the artist now as we swim through what the musicologist David Toop has called an ‘ocean of sound’ that floods over us from the cyber world, where music from every genre and period floats in a timeless present.... Afrit have succeeded in fusing together different elements to create a distinctive presence."
