    An album full of exaltation of African music in conjunction with pop music and rhythms of black origin turns it into a classic to know how to appreciate what black music gives us the best. The duo surprised me once again after a series of addictive plays on "River" this time I'm giving endless reproductions in Away Away, No Man Is Big Enough for my Arms and Deathless.

    Um álbum lotado de exaltação da música africana em junção com a música pop e ritmos de origem negra transforma-o em um clássico para saber apreciar o que a música negra nos proporciona de melhor. A dupla me surpreendeu mais uma vez após uma série de execuções viciantes em "River" desta vez estou dando infinitas reproduções em Away Away, No Man Is Big Enough for my Arms e Deathless.

    When the album is taken as a whole, its full beauty is floodlit--a rare experience in the age of singles.

    Their willingness to embrace worldly influences--and infuse their own urbanity--into their arrangements is crucial with regards to enabling the spirited reveries to accommodate the twins’ extrasensory wordplay, bringing a stability to the arbitrary grooves.

    Ash is an album that captures this exact moment in time and does so with unquestionable virtuosity.
