Reviews
- Absolutely unique. Only Hassell sounded like Hassell. Someone asks for recommendations of similar music, the trouble is Jon was and explorer, and not a colonizer, and few enough followed in his footsteps. A heady mix of loops, drums, breathy horn and gamelan structures interweave and leave. Travelling without moving without drugs. Bliss.
