Press reviews: "Listening to J1's (Jon Turner's) music is like taking a trip down the lane of currently popular dance forms: Trip-Hop, House and dreamy breakbeats are all represented here. This is good, because this artist is a talented and imaginative arranger who uses samples, voices, and -- of course -- ever-present beats to good effect." Will Lerner (Listen.com) ...... "Hopelessly downtrodden electronic style invokes Portishead's trademark style. Roughly textured beats carry each brooding melodic blend." Melissa Piazza (Listen.com) ......
