Through these recordings Sly5thAve felt he had found a way to make people connect with orchestral music; \"I've long felt orchestras around the world are inaccessible to most people – whether it be the programming or the cost, or the location\".\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe LP is Sly5thAve's first full album of original orchestral arrangements and features the musicianship of Sly5thAve's collaborators and Ghost Note bandmates - headed by Snarky Puppy's multi-Grammy–winning percussion duo Robert \"Sput\" Searight and Nate Werth, alongside previous collaborator Roberto Verástegui. Sly5thAve's passion for collaboration is expressed on singles from 'Liberation', as he revitalises the beloved Destiny's Child classic \"No, No, No Pt. 2\" with help from Jonathan Mones; through the MonoNeon bassline of \"Monoxide\" featuring MacKenzie on vocals and guitar from Peter Knudsen; and on closing track \"Big Brother feat. Daniel Wytanis\", a track that features and pays tribute to both Robert \"Sput\" Searight and Nate Werth, alongside Ghost Note member and mixing engineer Ben Burget.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTracks:\u003cbr\u003eDisc 1\u003cbr\u003e1.
