This is a double album released in 2002 by Warren Harris, also known as Hanna, from Brett Dancer's Track Mode label. It's a highly musical work that infuses deep house with jazz harmonies and improvisational sensibilities, combining delicate keyboards, bass, drum programming, and even his own live drumming. Featuring eight tracks including "Hajra," "Quiet Place," "Spirit Logical," and "Basquiat," it offers introspective depth that allows it to be enjoyed as a complete album, despite being club tracks. This is one of Hanna's代表作, naturally connecting the spirit of Detroit/Chicago black deep house with jazz, and it's an important record for anyone exploring US deep house from the early 2000s.
