The gaye device Well I went looking for something different and unusual and I found it in this incredible album by John Elmquist. Far out cosmic choirs, jazz, rock, classical and avant garde all blended together in an absolute aural delight! I love it.

Sven B. Schreiber (sbs) What a nice surprise to find a new John Elmquist album in my feed today! I don't know which genre his music belongs to - maybe it's still to be created. For the time being, I'm filing it under "avantgarde". This is the fourth album of his in my collection, and each of them is a gem. It's a big pleasure to me to listen to his bold way of using orchestras and choirs to enrich his weird and continually surprising compositions, which seem to originate from a friendlier parallel universe. Favorite track: Mister Green.
