Passing Place

Loka, Ninja Tune's cult psychedelists, purveyors of cinematic music that disturbs and troubles and intrigues rather than comforts, return with a new album, Passing Place.This is their most confident and cinematic album yet. Less claustrophobic and inward than before, the new album has a wide-screen, rolling hills vista feel to it, perhaps most beautifully realized with Anglesey's brass ensemble Seindorf Beaumaris Band on a few instrumental tracks. Passing Place showcases great use of vocals too to augment their considerable instrumental nous.
