This record is a dense, lush jungle of endlessly engrossing soundscapes that rewards deep listening just as richly as it excels as background mood music. Heavy, but not necessarily dark, Distortion Hue has appropriately soundtracked many moments of my life over the last year, providing a foil to the events of our time while offering a safe sonic buffer to contemplate them. Aside from being emotionally explorative, Westbrook’s work here is also technically astounding; truly a tour de force. John Jolley
"Electronic chamber music" from this lauded ensemble, with the musicians "sampling" the notation for a stunning, innovative sound. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 8, 2017
A glimmering ambient suite from Swedish composer Tomas Nordmark draws connections between the NYC avant-garde scene and classic film scores. Bandcamp New & Notable May 5, 2021
