REVIEWS

The Power Of A Hat is an eclectic selection of some of the oddest semi-funk, semi-pop, semi-jazz, always quirky music you'll ever have the chance to hear.

Kent Sparling
He Hears All

Kent is on the staff of Skywalker Sound (George Lucas' studios), and has mixed "The Virgin Suicides" and many of the foreign language versions of Star Wars (What does a Chinese Wookie sound like...? He knows!). He also is a talented composer and songwriter, and has excellent CDs of ambient music on his own label (jicamasalad.net).

I played keyboards in his band Eyeland (where I first met Toby Hawkins ). He knows hecka lot about carpentry and electricity, and is majorly responsible for the building of the G-Spot Studio. He has been involved in all 3 of my solo recordings. Thanks, Kent!
