“Recorded live in the studio in one afternoon session without overdubs or edits, the album focuses on "1/1" as its source, opening with expansive fields of cymbal crushes from percussionists Sheridan Riley and Tabor Allen. In one speaker, Philip Glenn's Hammond organ laps and trickles; in the other, Cathlene Pineda lays down Wurlitzer chords that recall Alice Coltrane's spirits exultations on "Oh Allah". When the familiar six-note motif makes its entrance, it's through trumpeter Kris Tiner, who rejects the original's studies blankness in favour of lyrical, expressive vibrato, unfurling the riff and reach its tips out in new directions. Despite the liberties he takes, Schlarb still seems to hold Eno's music in great esteem.” - The Wire

Just the kind of gentle soundtrack I need when I am doing simple repetitive manual tasks. Impossible to decide on a favourite track because they are all wonderful. Jeremy Cherfas
