They showcase both acoustic and electronic artists who produce eclectic versions of contemporary music.

John Scofield's first guitar-solo-recording ever gives a résumé of all the influences and idioms he has cultivated over his career in performances on guitar, accompanied by his own rhythmic pulse and chordal backing using a loop machine. Besides jazz, John is known to have always also had a soft spot for the rock and roll and country music he grew up with, revealed here in unencumbered renditions of Buddy Holly's "Not Fade Away" and Hank Williams' "You Win Again". Between elegant and personal readings of standards, like "It Could Happen To You", the traditional "Danny Boy" and Keith Jarret's "Coral", Scofield presents his own timeless compositions - some new, others known. For the guitarist, it's all about "the way you get the sound out of the string and what you do with it after you attack it."
