I can't recall anyone's mentioning this double CD release on Instinct's
"This Is Acid Jazz" series. One CD is called "kosmosis of the heart" and
the other is "kosmosis of the dub." A very simple comparison would be that
the former CD is the "jazzy" stuff and the latter (...dub) is the "trippy"
stuff. Looks like 5 of the dub tracks are remixes of "...heart" tracks.
At least one of the tracks, Falling, is familiar to me from a comp, but
I'm not near them now and can't say which one it was on. Falling is one of
the tracks that is on both discs with a James Bong remix on the dub CD.
All-in-all, nothing really new on this recording but it fills the space
well and the contrast between the discs is interesting. On the first
couple of listens, I thought the jazzier disc was better but then the dub
disc fits that that late-at-night trippier mood.
