Guillermo Scott Herren has already released three albums this year and on top of that sneakily put out a Japan-only album titled “Meditation Upon Meditations” consisting of nothing more than beats. From what I can tell, the most recognizable tracks on here go all the way back to 2005. “Travel Journal” was a bonus track for the Japanese version of 2005’s “Surrounded By Silence,” here we have it renamed as “So Much Over Time.” Other tracks include “Return From Home” and “Pescado” that were featured on the “Megachopped Suite,” a download-only from the Warp website accompanying 2007’s “Preparations/Interregnums” albums. Fans of Herren’s work will not be disappointed with this release. It is a mixture of the old and new weaved in and out of each track. Here’s a simple thought: I love how Herren uses his voice for harmonization over the melody for much of his beats. Why isn’t this one out on wax?
