Chris Cunningham vibes 

Track sounds pretty cool??? Although 0 change in sound as always

thought immunity was great back in the day. heard recently and not sure it holds up as much as i thought it would. 

If he leans into sound design on this one then I’m all for it.

Open Eye Signal will always be great, but I know what you mean

music for psychedelic therapy is quite good as well.  i like jon hopkins. i think he’s kind of a gateway drug to more experimental stuff for some people. it’s all very pleasant but there’s some interesting ideas underneath at some points

Immunity is great and Singularity is good as well. This announcement made me return to these albums after like 5 years. I am looking forward to this project even though I sometimes feel like Jon gets overhyped. His music output is good but it's not as revolutionary as the critics made it out to be back in the days of 2013 and onward

Always had a soft spot for him since I saw this vid back in the day

8 versions of one arpeggiator

Worth checking out I thought. Nothing groundbreaking but still enjoyable if you take it all in in one sitting. Ishq's contributions shine through, though I definitely preferred his more recent ambient work on ceti and lost worlds.  

Edit: Bleep's insta has a post that gets into the contributions from Clark, Ishq etc on Ritual.

Indeeed 

Also did u know he meditates? 

He makes very nice sounds. If I were to be critical he's more of a trend follower than setter. I've enjoyed all his releases although theyve gotten a bit samey. His remixes of artists hit though. 

Tried listening to this and my home started smelling of ethereal oils.

I just ran into Mr. Jon Hopkins. He was organizing a yoga class for pregnant woman to promote his new album. When i was taking a piss he came into the restroom and walked past six urinals and took the one right next to mine. And started telling me that my sexual chakras were closed and asked if i wanted him to open them up. Of course i start freaking out and got out of there fast. At the end of the class he gave me a home knitted sweater to apologize. And he showed me some pictures of a Chinese kid he just adopted?
