Cold Blue Music announces the release of JLA's new CD: the place we began.

"...unique and engaging music that springs from an experienced intensity of absolute listening."
– Kevin Macneil Brown, Dusted

"...the range of sonic combinations runs from comfortably colorful to stark, and many places in between."
– Dave Lewis, AllMusic

"Four very interesting pieces ... great pieces of electronic music. Excellent work."
– Frans de Waard, Vital Weekly (The Netherlands)


"... four electro-acoustic settings that are both austere and sensual and exude a stillness that resonates throughout... luminous and spacious..."
