Entstehung
Nachdem der Jazzpianist Matthew Shipp das 2002 erschienene Album Fantastic Damage von El-P gehΓΆrt hatte, schlug er diesem vor, ein gemeinsames Album zu produzieren. El-P willigte ein und die Arbeiten zu High Water begannen 2003. El-P rappt auf dem Album nicht, es handelt sich bei High Water um sein zweites Instrumentalalbum nach Little Johnny from the Hospitul: Breaks and Instrumentals, Vol. 1.cite-ref-1[1] El-P produzierte lose Liedstrukturen, ΓΌber die die Musiker von The Blue Series Continuum improvisierten. Auf dem Song When the Moon was Blue ist der einzige Feature-Gast zu hΓΆren, El-Pβs Vater Harry Keys, ebenfalls Jazzmusiker.cite-ref-2[2]
Neben El-P, Matthew Shipp und Harry Keys arbeiteten folgende Musiker an dem Album: William Parker, Guillermo E. Brown, Daniel Carter, Steve Swell und Roy Campbell, Jr.cite-ref-3[3]
Das Lied Intrigue in the House of India verΓΆffentlichte El-P ebenfalls auf seinem 2004 erschienenen Mixtape Collecting the Kid, dort auf manchen Pressungen unter dem Namen Time is Running Out.cite-ref-4[4]

Kritik
β[...] the album is essentially a reminder that El-P's jazz detour is only a temporary diversion from the music that shaped Def Jux.β
β...das Album ist im Wesentlichen eine Erinnerung daran, dass El-P's Abstecher in den Jazz nur eine vorΓΌbergehende Abwechslung von der Musik ist, die Def Jux geprΓ€gt hat.β
