I always love when Victor Wooten is involved in a project as he is really one of the jazz greats, and a Tremendous influence on artists. He is a special guest on one of the tracks on the album. The sound of this album is closer to a Spacey or Planet Jazz, which is self-proclaimed by Matt White as well. They really have their own sound when it comes down to it, but they do have a similar sound to Space Orphan. Pretty decent overall, and something different to listen to that is for sure. I enjoyed tracks 2, 4, 6, and 7 the most.
