Hmmmm

I'm a bit surprised that after the ground-breaking Manafon this is the next release...oh well...

Its a bit of an intermission before the next act arrives, probably to get some of the old faithfull who were less than enchanted with Manafon back on board. Manafon had inspiring and some uninspiring moments for me, and I'm more of a casual fan myself, but I'll likely get this album.

I'm annoyed that the Random Acts of Senseless Violence (Dai Fujikura remix) track isn't on it.

I wish they'd done that

There are a few Samadhi Sound adverts in this months Wire magazine - Jan Bang's ... And Poppies From Kandahar gets a whole page, Toshimaru Nakamura's Egrets and Akira Rabelais' Caduceus also get half a page - there's also a good review Toshimaru Nakamura's Egrets by Clive Bell in the same issue.

Bell worked with Sylvian on When Loud Weather Buffeted Naoshima and provided notes on Amplified Gesture.

As mentioned in the Roundhouse thread - there's also a half page ad for the John Foxx Short Circuit performance on page 77 of this months Wire magazine as well.
