	Mick Karn - Biography
		Mick Karn emigrated to London as a Greek Cypriot when he was 3 years old and from an early age was looking for ways to express himself.
		Mick explained: "It looked as if musicians were enjoying themselves and I was intrigued by their ability to escape into another world but frustrated with my own attempts to join in, However, it was only a matter of time before I found the right instrument and direction to aim for, purely by chance.
		Mick decided to play an unfamiliar five string bass to differentiate his playing from the style listeners had become accustomed to, and in some cases left the bass out altogether, concentrating on bass clarinet as the lead instrument.

	Mick Karn: More Better Different - PopMatters Music Review
		The title More Better Different summarizes the ways in which the expectations for yet another Mick Karn record (his ninth) can be defied or surpassed, and as such it announces one of the better music-for-art's-sake records released in a long while.
		As he began honing his artistic approach long ago when Japan was disbanded in 1982, and has since found his particular voice, Mick Karn is content to further deepen and explore his individual strengths.
		Ultimately, the record is a tasteful and attractive example of what Mick Karn has to offer; it emphasizes his mastery of all that he has tried before, yet never obscures his obvious gift as a bass player.

		To most of the civilized world, Mick Karn is best remembered as the bass player from art-rock glamsters Japan.
		The dire chimes of "Never Thought" are ominous enough on their own without Karn's spooky goth-guy vocals, but his throaty poetry adds an even darker layer to an already unsettling song.
		Fortunately, Karn's impressive compositional talents and skill with a variety of instruments keep him from falling off the wagon.

	LEFT OFF THE DIAL - Album Reviews - Mick Karn: More Better Different
		Mick Karn, the ex-bassist from the band Japan, explores some new territory in his recent solo release, More Better Different.
		Karn is also somewhat of a virtuoso, and while not necessarily appealing to typical musical sensibilities, it is always interesting to listen to a true virtuoso at work.
		Karns virtuosity, however, is not primarily in his bass playing, but rather in his production skills and his arrangements.

	Mick Karn - Titles \| Best price for Music on CD Album
		Bottom line-- if you're a Karn fan, you should eventually check this one out, but his CMP albums are vastly superior.
		Mick Karn, formerly of the British New Wave/Progressive band Japan, IS my main inspiration when it comes to playing fretless bass, but he's much more than just a bass player.
		He has a distinct Middle Eastern feel to his music which comes from his early upbringing; he was born in Cypress.Primarily an instrumental album, with some guest vocals, including an appearance by ex-Japan bandmate David Sylvian, Titles is a challenging work with both atmospherics and depth from a very creative and talented musical mind.

	Mick Karn - Dreams of Reason Produce Monsters \| Best price for Music on CD Album
		Its got its shortcomings, and it may be better for Sylvian fans than Karn fans, but overall this is a rewarding album and well worth a listen.
		I first experienced Mick Karn's bass playing when I saw him play in London in 1978 with Japan.
		But seriously, if you enjoy Mick Karn, than this album is definitely a collectors item, if only for the fact that it reunites David Sylvian and Mick.

	Mick Karn More Better Different Album Review - SoundsXP
		I got neither; instead, Mick’s bass gurgles like a babbling brook while atmospheric Eno kind of instrumentation and atmospheres ramble along in the background.
		If Mick Karn had performed this on a laser harp while wearing white gloves, he might have got away with it but sadly a lot of the record sounds like it has been beaten by the late 80’s stick.
		As is probably not surprising, a lot of the song structures seem to hang on the bass lines, and while pleasant enough there is nothing on this record that hasn’t been done before, and probably better, by someone else.

		Liquid Glass is the superb outcome of Mick Karn's collaboration with Japanese contemporary artist Yoshihiro Hanno.

	Mick Karn - Three Part Species : album review
		If it wasn't for men like Mick Karn, my formative years would have been filled with a lot less hairspray and eyeliner, synthesizers and saxophones.
		The antithesis of punk's raw energy and three-chords-are-all-you-need ethos, they rewrote the rules and helped to ensure the Velvet Underground were never forgotten and split just as hordes of their copyists were taking the styles and sounds they created into the mainstream.
		Since then, Karn has worked with everyone from Bauhaus's Pete Murphy to King Crimson's Bill Brufford via Natacha Atlas, Riyuchi Sakamoto, jazz, drum and bass and whatever else has taken his fancy.
