Offering - Live at Le Guess Who
by Nicole Mitchell and Moor Mother

supported by 8 fans who also own “Augmented Variations”

Intriguing, enchanting and terrifying all at once. To me it's the perfect soundtrack I'd envision for waking up in a strange nation and not knowing the name of the place, or any contextual understanding about the culture, or even remembering how you got there in the first place. It has the capacity to be a negative or positive experience in equal measure, a testament to the two talented women behind this record. Ben Harris
