Press responses:

‘Heaps Dub’ is idiosyncratic to the last – with each piece lasting exactly five minutes and managing to pack more freewheeling instrumentation into those 300 seconds than many similar outfits manage over an entire album.
Intricate, clever and (most importantly!) fun, ‘Heaps Dub’ is the sound of musicians in love with their craft. Root down!
( Boomkat, UK )

One of the albums getting very high rotation at Chateau Peril at the moment is Root 70’s Heaps Dub (…) Saxophone, clarinet, trombone, double bass and light touch drum work combine with Friedman’s subtle post-production effects, revealing the strength of Friedman (and Atom Heart’s) original compositions even when freed from their digital roots. Root 70’s Heaps Dub is one to check. ( Perilious, AUS )

“Heaps Dub” turns out to be a successful release – one that is infused with sufficient energy and fervour. ( Vivo, PL )

…to me the magic is in the subtle changes, the interplay between voices, the explosions of timbre -it’s by far the most MUSICAL thing i’ve heard this year. ( Philip Sherburne )
