Impulse! Records proudly announces the signing of free jazz collective Irreversible Entanglements with their label debut, Protect Your Light. Fusing elements of jazz, hip-hop, global music traditions and spoken word, the album sees the quintet (vocalist/poet Camae Ayewa, saxophonist Keir Neuringer, bassist Luke Stewart, trumpeter Aquiles Navarro, drummer Tcheser Holmes) break molds with adventurous improvisation driven by poetry about the Black experience, love, power, community, liberation.
Protect Your Light is focused and fierce; it is, in places, measurably different as the band...learned to use the studio as another musical instrument, employing its possibilities for space, textures, dynamics, overdubbing, and intricate mixing....Protect Your Light expands the group's already abundant gifts. Anyone - fan or newcomer - open to avant jazz and spoken word will register delight, surprise, and possibly awe at the creativity and inspiration on the album.
