High Risk (feat. Shigeto, Jonathan Maron & Mark Guiliana)
“Dave Douglas is a well-established jazz player, and Zach Saginaw—who records under his middle name, Shigeto—composes lightly psychedelic instrumental hip-hop. As part of the quartet High Risk, they make serene and meditative electric jazz with a focus on ambient sounds.”
