A Willed and Conscious Balance, the latest feature for DC/NY/beyond jazz linchpin Luke Stewart, is the first album of material arranged for an ensemble by multi-instrumentalist and composer Tomin. The bulk of the album was recorded in one day at The Bunker in Brooklyn, and features a truly incredible lineup that includes members of Irreversible Entanglements and jaimie branch’s FLY or DIE.

Tomin’s wielding of this crack squad is singular though, instantly setting this material apart from the discographies of the contributors. The sounds heard on A Willed and Conscious Balance take the listener somewhere new. Somewhere fresh yet familiar. A group exploration of simplicity that yields something complicated, just like life itself.
