| | Graham Haynes : BPM - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect |
 | | On BPM (i.e.,"beats per minute"), Graham Haynes intermingles Miles-influenced horn lines, techno rhythms, world music grooves, ambient textures, and -- brace yourself -- samples of Wagnerian opera, with surprisingly successful results. |
 | | Haynes concentrates on his horn's middle register and seems to choose his phrases carefully, drawing out and clearly articulating the notes with nary a hint of vibrato. |
 | | Haynes uses technology to create imaginative and even subtle sonic environments, and, of course, he is an evocative player on his primary instrument, the good old-fashioned cornet. |
