Moor Mother, meanwhile, continues to bring together the past, present and future of Black music tradition from a metaperspective on a quarterly basis, thinking more discomfortingly and more freely than anyone else, all while talking, as I’m told, about the Jaylen Brunson signing with a grounded matter-of-factness as if she actually is from this planet. »Jazz Codes« is an album on which more ideas come together than in some free jazz discographies, and that is precisely why, once again, far too many people will capitulate far too quickly to this album.
