You have to admire Cobblestone Jazz’s improvised modus operandi, but the results are hit and miss. ‘DMT’ is more the latter than former: a wandering 12-minute groove that drags you in with its snaking bassline and snatched found-sounds, but doesn’t expand into much more. As an exercise in controlled experimentation, it works, but as a home listening experience, it’s hard work.
