"My music has been getting quieter over years. Not that it was ever particularly rowdy, but the beats have been taking a back seat. The simple concept behind this release was to collect up some of my favourite quiet moments, to acknowledge there's been a thread of ambient leaning stuff since I started making music.

These bits and pieces range from something I wrote back at the end of last century for 'Jet Jaguar is Love' through to the last thing I had finished at the time Cudighi approached me. There's a few things that have never been released before, a few things that I gave a bit of a remix, and a few more that have been released but that you probably missed.

Thanks to Heather for playing some probably pretty unnatural violin parts on one track and thanks to Hannes for the ping-pong style collaboration where we wrote a track from opposite sides of the planet, one layer at a time."

- Jet Jaguar

"Quiet...is a testament to imagination, persistence, consistency."

Jet Jaguar recommends:

Big Room
by Ulla Straus

There's been this rise of ambient stuff in the last 5 years or so that has a bit of a throwback to your Vlad Delays and such - dubby, loose, exploratory... This Ulla album is the one, imo. Jet Jaguar

Only Love From Now On
by Carmen Villain

Mellow woodwind loops and underwater percussion. The tracks with Arve Henriksen are like an extension of Jon Hassell's 4th world stuff. Top notch. Jet Jaguar

Rings
by Nikolaienko

A throwback to the era of electronic music being tape loops. Burbling melodic fragments, sometimes glocky percussion. On Jan Jelinek's label, Nikolaienko's label Muscut worth a look too. Jet Jaguar
