Helmed by producer and saxophonist Pete Cunningham, Ishmael Ensemble's richly inventive 2019 debut A State Of Flow marked them out as an explosive new force in UK jazz, imbuing lush cinematic compositions with left-field dub and electronic sensibilities redolent of Bristol's vital musical landscape. NamedThe Guardian's 'Contemporary Album Of The Month' and Mojo's 'Jazz Album of The Month', it saw the group perform Maida Valesessions for both Gilles Peterson and Tom Ravenscroft, as well as feature on compilations for Brownswood Recordings and Soul Jazz Records. Cunningham's rise as an in-demand producer led to remixes for the likes of techno royalty Carl Craig, as well as legendary jazz label Blue Note Records alongside a plethora of the UK's finest musical talent on Blue Note Re: Imagined. Ishmael Ensemble has since become a platform for Cunningham to subvert the conventional notions of producer/artist relationships, unsettling genre tags, and transcending the familiar landscape of UK jazz itself. Across the album's 10 tracks, Cunningham practices a holistic approach with a long list of collaborators. Together, they explore vast new sonic terrain with an honesty, intimacy and emotional heft impossible for a conventional band. Visions Of Light tells the story of Ishmael Ensemble's development across it's two sides. The first draws from the energy Cunningham and his bandmates discovered whilst extensively touring A State Of Flow. The album opens with a cascade of harp glissandos and the gorgeous 'Feather' - Holysseus Fly's lush vocal lulling the listener into a false sense of security, before her voice is warped beyond recognition in the high-octane, cacophonous 'Wax Werk'. The tracks that follow take a darker, heavier turn. The driving, uninhibited performances of Stephen Mullins (guitar) and Rory O'Gorman (drums), along with Jake Spurgeon's agile synth work, lay the foundation for Cunningham to deliver his most confident and direct saxophone performances to date.
