Review: For his second full length on Ninja Tune entitled Glass, Illum Sphere aka Ryan Hunn follows 2014's Ghosts of Then and Now LP, but sonically moves further in the direction hinted by his Spectre Vex and Second Sight 12's. According to Ninja Tune, Hunn is quoted as saying 'I wanted to make an album very different to the first one with a different palette, pace and energy." The album sees a noticeable change of direction from previous releases. Starting out with the sombre ambient experience "The Journey", there's the '80s style mood lighting of "Oracle" (reminiscent of Jan Hammer), the dusty downbeat EBM of "River" is most indicative of Hunn's recent change of direction as is lead single "Thousand Yard Stare" which sees him throw down some brooding and emotive electro variation.
