AllMusic[1]

The AllMusic review by "Blue" Gene Tyranny states "This set is interesting primarily to hear European musicians interpret Taylor's kinesthetic directing...mostly an intense density of "free playing" (actually following specific internalized instructions and images) with almost everyone going on different gestures at once, with slow unison melodies emerging from the environment".[3]

Personnel

gollark: If your provider supports them you get one as you would for ipv4.
gollark: My nginx configs are built by Nix(OS) so I don't actually care.
gollark: I use nginx myself.
gollark: Who needs "abstraction"? Sounds like nonsense, like "generics"!
gollark: I think it'd be better to write it in assembly. Much more performant, sort of thing.
