I don’t think it would be much of an exaggeration to call <I>Creating Patterns</I> a masterpiece. Because it is -- a masterpiece of electronic jazz. 4 Hero have come so far since their early days as drum ‘n’ bass pioneers that it’s astounding to see their transformation. The opening track, “Conceptions,” sets the standard with its thoughtful and smooth instrumentation. The rhythmic sense is still intact, as evidenced by the careful and complex drumming on “Golden Solitude.” The highlight, for me, is the quiet and truthful “Another Day,” featuring the soft vocals of Jill Scott -- it describes how I feel all the time. The Spanish vocals on “Unique” add a different flair, and the chorus on the hippie anthem “Les Fleur” will lift you to another plane. Terry Callier’s soulfulness on “The Day of the Greys” makes it transcendent. What are you still waiting for?
