Inspired not by John, but rather his wife Alice, YWFT Coltrane strives to achieve Universal Consciousness through the jump out of Detroit and the piano ladder up to the ashram. Go drop the needle on the record of the same name while gazing deep at these letters–soul mates without a doubt. It might take a moment, and maybe some mood lighting, but you should see what we’re talking about without having to change your name to Turiyasangitananda. Originally a handset font (named for another jazz great, Cannonball Adderley), it made its way through the Vedantic pathways to reincarnation as YWFT Coltrane in glorious Opentype, and we’ve been generous with 291 glyphs and all the fancy features thereto. Style and grace from inner space. Astral motion by the ocean and a magic tune on the moon. This font works well in culture, fashion and all of that next-level stuff you saw in those magazines at the coffeehouse.
