Lee Hinman This track introduced me to the poem "A Child Of Mine" by Edgar Albert Guest, which came at a time when a friend was mourning the loss of a child. Favorite track: Giving In.

Jon Musselwhite There is something beautiful and mesmerizing about this album. It swallows you whole as you cruise down the motorway at midnight. Blending instruments, and beats, it does what music should do - take you somewhere else. Favorite track: A Hair On The Head Of John The Baptist.

Stef B Relaxing yet heavy. Almost atmospheric in some songs. Moar pls. Favorite track: Giving In.

about

Menton J. Matthews III is one of those artists who should have lived in the sixteenth century, along with Shakespeare and da Vinci. His project Saltillo grew out of the ashes of Sunday Munich but perfects a style of electronic and violin-laden trip-hop that is original, seductive, and bold. The first album Ganglion was released in 2005 and now sees a re-issue through Artoffact Records featuring a bonus track and remastered. Recommended if you like: Portishead, DJ Shadow, Massive Attack.

With “Ganglion,” Saltillo has truly thrown down the gauntlet over what it means to create a truly original trip-hop album in today’s music scene.

—Matt Wolfe, Sputnik Music

For once, the press sheet hype ('quite possibly the finest release we've ever heard') doesn't seem like hyperbole.

—Mark Teppo, Igloo Mag
