Saxophonist Binker Golding and drummer Moses Boyd are a semi-free jazz saxophone and drums duo that embraces hip-hop, funk, and avant-garde influences. No mere improvising duo, their approach is built as much on hooky composition as it is on the freedom principle. They are both bandleaders and session players; they came together after working the road and in studios with others, and cut 2016's Dem Ones. 2017's conceptual Journey to the Mountain of Forever included an expanded line-up of musicians (who included Evan Parker, among others) and cemented their status in the London jazz renaissance. They worked the clubs as a duo and recorded together in the Moses Boyd Exodus. The pair issued a couple of live albums and returned to studio recording with 2022's Feeding the Machine, featuring honorary third member Max Luthert on loops and electronics. « hide
