Moutin Factory Quintet: Deep

Read "Deep" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky


Deep. So very, very, deep. Rarely does a single four-letter word so eloquently and accurately capture the spirit of an album. Everything from the grooves to the compositions to the thought content embedded in each musician's statements can be summed up by that simple-yet-complex title.
