About
Listeners expecting the stylish soul-funk of Sault’s 2020 albums <i>Untitled (Rise)</i> and <i>Untitled (Black Is)</i> might be momentarily thrown by the cosmic choral-and-orchestral suite of <i>Air</i>, but thematically, it fits: Like all their music, <i>Air</i> is, at heart, a study of Black artistic traditions, in this case early-’70s Alice Coltrane (“Solar”), the soulful ambience of Stevie Wonder’s <i>Journey Through the Secret Life of Plants</i> (“Heart”), even a little of the modern-classical side of artists like Anthony Braxton. And as sci-fi as the sound can seem, the core feeling is one of uplifting Earth—a message confirmed as equally by the skyward arc of the strings as by the prayer-like recitation on “Time Is Precious.” Or, as producer Inflo tells Apple Music, not fantasy, but “art in reality”—air.
