"Soul at the Hands of the Machine" features Brown’s flowering ensemble, includ- ing multi-instrumentalist, downtown heavyweight Daniel Carter (Project Logic, Other Dimensions in Music); spoken word songstress Latasha Natasha Diggs (Straight Ahead Records, Bill Laswell, Ryuchi Sakamoto); guitar wizard Morgan Michael Craft (, Michelle Ndege Ocello); emerging saxophone colos- sus Andre Vida (Anthony Braxton), future bass doc- tor Shahzad Ismaily (Graham Haynes) and engineer Chris Flam who has developed a knack for mixing live and electronic sounds in his work with DJ Spooky, Matthew Shipp, and William Parker.

early press:
Hailed by The New York Times, Village Voice, JazzTimes and The Washington City Paper as "aggressive," having a "smart sense of pyrotech- nics," and "briskly explo- sive," Brown is poised to make mind-blowing sound waves in 2002.
