Idris Ackamoor & The Pyramids are back with their first major new studio album in over 3 years, an epic, sprawling new work exploring the future, the past and the urgent reality of the present, Afro Futuristic Dreams. Recorded between San Francisco and London and brought together by the genius of Malcolm Catto at his analogue Quatermass Studio, the new recording represents another bold step in Ackamoors ever-evolving journey in jazz, adding full, intricate scores including string sections and choral elements to the Pyramids trademark spiritual Afro-jazz sound; Driven by the core Pyramids members Ackamoor (sax, keytar, organ), Margaux Simmons (flute), Sandra Poindexter (violin) and Bobby Cobb (guitar), tracks range from hard-hitting commentaries about police brutality (Police Dem) to celebrations of the ancestors and departed loved ones (Requiem For The Ancestors, Re-Memory) and hazy cosmic journeys, including the albums title track and the sparkling, experimental closer, Nice It Up.
