i just can't get enough of the budd/foxx release! i'm hoping there's more. especially, at the moment, "weather patterns," "coming into focus," "avenue of trees" and "underwater flowers." refreshing music. the whole look makes me think of samadhi sound.

It is a stunningly beautiful and moving collection of pieces.

Although I wasn't instantly drawn into it, it took a while to grow on me. Words can't describe the beauty and emotion in the music. It's a truly unique album.

It woud be nice if John worked on some more tracks with Harold Budd, but then again John could do a complete piano work solo. Somewhere between hes work with Harold, and the C.O. prodject.

I'm not sure I would want another album like this - I think as a 'one off' (okay, two-off!) it really stands out as something special.

But perhaps some kind of piano album from John - whether it be acoustic or electronic, would be very interesting. Actually I think something in a similar style to the "Quiet Man 3/4" tracks could work remarkably well.

An electric piano album would be nice, but i was thinking more on the lines of an accoustic one. My favourite pianist is Satie, so something in that mode from my favourite modern day artist im sure would be amazing!!

Hi Tom,

There's a Foxx collaboration with Robin Guthrie to emerge at some point, and at the Cargo gig last year, we heard an album by Foxx and Steve Jansen - which, for a reference point - reminded me of the 'Plight & Premonition' album by Jansen's brother - David Sylvian and Holger Czukay.

There's no specific release date at the moment - but as usual I'll post full details just as soon as they've been confirmed...
