listen & pre-order



NYC dream jazz abstractionists YAI (David Lackner and John Thayer) return with Sky Time, a mesmerizing mix of woodwinds, waves, and ethereal echo. Moving deftly from ambient soundscapes through fourth world aesthetics, Sky Time is a joyful and clear-eyed exercise of stop motion in slow motion.
