David Binney - Here & Now

The new album. Further compositional and musical explorations. Elements of a lot of Electronic music, improvisation. Featuring some fine musicians including Louis Cole. The new album Here & Now is a departure from earlier records. A direction that I am very into and excited about. It's much more electronic yet features live players too.
