From Boomkat:

Chi house deity Jamal Moss harvests diverse highlights of his early ’22 tape trio spanning warehouse jazz, comic ambient and polychromatic noise on a keenly awaited vinyl edition with his Mathematics label  ‘The Shittest Sounds U Don’t Ever Want 2 Hear With Spiritual Name Titles 2 Prove How Deep I Am’ ‘fesses a definitive portrait of the singular artist at some 25 years deep into his thing. A touchstone to us and many others for decades now, Jamal and his Hieroglyphic Being avatar are emblematic of a true skool, yet dare-to-differ, slant on Chicago house principles that became lost or mutated in translation as the club phenomenon has developed since the mid ‘80s. Not one to throw the baby out with the bathwater, Jamal has gestated and adapted the early house aesthetics of drum machines + synths with overproof amounts of imaginative soul to practically become a genre in his own right.

 

 

Plucked from quickly sold-out tape editions, the tracklist here embraces Hieroglyphic Being’s full cosmic house spectrum, with each cut inimitably distinguished by subtle modulations of repeating pattern and offset by hypnotic, improvised ribbons of melodic thought. Between their stylistic variation and quite literally in the track titles, the album-compilation tells a story taking in references to Sun Ra and the most busted Chi jak trax ion the blown out warehouse jazz of ‘Circumpolar’, thru to misty-eyed, beat-less reminiscence on ‘A Dream Within a Dream’, and the 3rd eye-gyring harmonic keen of ‘This is From the Radiance’.

 

 

Weaving in space between, ‘Delta Oplus L’ generates incomparably bittersweet harmonic resonance, and ‘The Prograde Direction’ dispenses deeply rough hewn house beauty, while ‘Black Love on A early Sunday Morning’ epitomises his sound’s psychosexual thrust, and ‘Future Shocked’ channels ideas on Alvin Toffler via Ron Hardy and DJ Rush, building the energies toward a massive steamer ‘Thanks 4 The Tracks U Lost’, and irrepressible momentum of ‘All God’s Children’.
