No.

I like that piece and if it were successfully extended into something long enough to make one of my record reviews I’d call it an ambient/drone neo psychedelic duo with at least one member who obviously likes Ummagumma. I’d rate it “recommended” but unfortunately it doesn’t actually exist, yet.

Frown on the other hand has a respectable discography fully realized available on Bandcamp and Spotify. I think his finest release is probably Andaman. We discussed it at length on lamp lighter. My assessment of it is “highly recommended” which may sound like a small distinction but it’s a much higher praise than just “recommended” in my mind and is used as a cue to fans of the genre that hold up I’m really serious you need to take the time to hear this.

And sorry if I’m beating a dead horse but the fact the entire albums are realized and actually exist and made available for consumption- the comparison is between potentially good music that hasn’t been realized to great music that is, in fact, realized.

So, no, it doesn’t out frown frown. Instead of trying to out frown frown I’m looking forward to hearing you out Joe Pass frown.
