This is music that harks back to Brian Eno’s way of thinking – beatless meditations that feature thick reverberation, slowly moving guitar loops and vocals that are sometimes difficult to pick out but work well in the heat of the moment. There’s a clear chemistry between John Foxx, his improvised vocals and subtle electronic dressing, and Guthrie, whose studied guitar work nonetheless feels free of constraints. It works particularly well in the context of coming down after a heavy night out or easing into the day, but always provides something musically stimulating, like a particularly intense meditation session. Something different – but keeping the fire of 1970s ambience burning strong.
