"'Most Favored Nation?' and 'Study #1' . . . are a pleasure to hear, and also provocative and disturbin g in quite personal ways." - Noah Creshevsky (director: Center for Computer Music, Brooklyn College, NY). "['As Though They Had Never Been' is] beyond thought and [is] into reactive space." - Pamela Zero (The Avant Guarde - mp3.com radio station) "Awesome! just great ... it [James Bohn's Music] sent great searing flying wedges of sound through my head!" - Mark Millstein (Faculty Director of WSMU 91.1 North Dartmouth, MA).
