Praise for I Want More
Appreciating the love for I Want More.
"Emotive electro-jazz" - MOJO [4 stars]
“McCaslin on I Want More perhaps comes closest to discovering a new world of sound that’s distinct from the one he helped create on Blackstar. It’s a uniquely hard-hitting, direct, studio-driven recording that organically joins together elements from electronica, post-rock, jazz and improv more persuasively than perhaps anything before it.” - Jazzwise [4 stars]
"a visionary program of original compositions" - Jazziz Magazine
"Strap yourself in and get lost in this daring soundscape. If this is the future of jazz, we may not yet be prepared, but McCaslin and crew aren’t wasting time with baby steps." - Glide Magazine
"Bowie, of course, heard their potential and utilized it for his final work, his coda. Donny McCaslin and his group have retained this designation with honor and full-bore energy and spirit now to move on." - Jazz in Europe
"I Want More does full justice to its title. After the eight tracks on the album you definitely want more. Whether on record or live. This is McCaslin, Lindner, Guiliana and Lefebvre at their peak." - Written in Music [4.5 stars]
"What makes this first album that McCaslin releases on the British Edition Records so good is that he pushes the band sound even more in the electronic direction and gives the quartet a fresh sound of their own." - De Volkskrant Newspaper [4 stars]
"Diverse, challenging and experimental..." - UK Vibe [4 stars]
