Great producer. Can't wait listening to his newest album, it's been 5 years since Immunity!

Keep missing his AV shows. Looks like he just announced a load of dates for the new album tour later this year. http://www.jonhopkins.co.uk/Live.html Glasgow link is broken though. :x

Really nice. As the man said himself, it's like a musical journey. Really looking forward to the visuals on the tour.

This is a good album, enjoying it. You just have to accept the second half of the album, which at first sound a bit underwhelming, but on second-third listen I enjoy it.

Finally gave it a go. Sadly can't say I really liked it all the way through. There are some okay to good tracks on it, namely Singularity, Emerald Rush, Neon Pattern Drum, Everything Connected and Echo Dissolve. But I dunno, I couldn't really connect emotionally with the second (ambient) half of the album at all. Something is definitely missing for me. I might have to give it another try later.
