 Global Goon reviews
Global Goon is still quite underground and overlooked by many, so this stateside release will definitely please new fans who weren’t fluent in the Rephlex catalogue in ’96.
Global Goon's Family Glue is a truly excellent repose of what IDM should and should not be, but the Goon CD came with a copy of E-Rock's Thumb Zine --a small press mag from the 90s, chock full of all the goodness IDM used to muster.
Goon is also more straightforward and less self-indulgent than Aphex, as all eleven tracks on this succinct set make their point with dispatch and end before the four-minute mark.

 Splendid Magazine reviews Global Goon: Vatican Nitez
For years, rumors have persisted that Johnny Hawk, aka Global Goon, is actually Mr.
Never being one to confirm or deny rumors, James has simply ignored the chatter and gone about the business of being one of the weirdest men on the planet.
On the other hand, tracks like "I'm on the 73" and "Stan's Slaves" show a propensity for stealthy, Aphex-ish synth flourishes and gloriously off-kilter rhythmic jumps -- which says nothing of their acidic underpinnings and warped mawkishness.

 AxisofLogic/ Global Empire
For despite all the grandiose political rhetoric and world-historical perturbations emanating from the Bush Regime's imperial project, we should never lose sight of one simple fact: Deep down, these guys are nothing but cheap hoods, two-bit chiselers hustling for loot, thug-brained goons with no more grandeur about them than the meanest pack of Mafia knee-breakers.
For them, statecraft is just a crowbar for bashing heads and jimmying open lockboxes.
But underneath they're still nothing but witless, murdering, money-grubbing goons.

Apparently Johnny Hawk (aka Global Goon) roomed with Richard D. James in London in the mid-90s before releasing his 1996 Rephlex debut Goon, which was followed by Cradle of History and then Vatican Nitez.
With only one exception (the spacey yet unremarkable “Pause”), all songs are up-tempo; anyone looking for somber melancholia won’t find it on Family Glue.

Seated in the cradle of electronica circa 1992, the Goon has continued the legacy of vintage aphex/mu-ziq with some spot-on electronic pop tunes.

Daymon Kiliman (Springfield, IL United States) - See all my reviews
Global Goon has created a freak-funk epic with Family Glue.
Those familiar with his work will recognize his distinctively flavored style: the intense emphasis on playful melodies, simple but expertly produced organic drum patterns, occasional and cheeky use of his own voice as an instrument, and funky bass guitar grooves.
