"Technodelic Transmissions" Release 19 May, 2012
"Technodelic Transmissions" Reviews
"It's a fantastic album." - Mark Whitby, Dandelion Radio (UK)
"Lee Negin's new CD "Technodelic Transmissions" is one of his finest yet. With so much music coming from the man these last few years, I wondered what more could he do... and he shows it right here. There's just one thing... I want more Cheeze."
- Jason Peverett, 'The Peverett Phile' Blog
"Damn. It kills me that Negin did all this himself-- composed, played, produced, engineered, mixed and mastered. He even created and designed the cover! There is some crushingly beautiful work ('Yin Yang Yo Yo,' 'Just So,' 'Ripples, Waves') and also this amazing, driving, intense, crazy stuff that comes out of nowhere (check "Yankee Goes to Bollywood"). Honestly great work, again! Outstanding. Crushingly beautiful meets devastatingly brilliant!"

"More colours and sounds for the voices to speak to in your head."

CD Release December 2011. "Reflections of Waking Dreams"
Wu Wei
International Release 26 September, 2011
Quotable Quotes
"No Western musician has found so much of the formless energy at the core of Eastern music as Lee Negin has with his new CD, Wu Wei!
How long has it been since you've been somewhere in electronica that seemed like somewhere to be? Lee Negin's Wu Wei has an organic feeling seldom found from plugged in music. His music can make you dance from ear to ear in subconscious sing along communal ecstatic campfire circles. There's nothing new in this. I believe I heard this music last year in a dream. I'll grant I've never heard it awake until now. This is a comfortable and familiar, natural world where spirits play Frisbee and all the barbecues seem to be burning Nag Champa. Same as it ever was, but never quite like this on my earthly hifi. Great work!"

"Negin effortlessly forges through the uncharted waters of musical Zen and cleverly orchestrates sound into a vibrant, visceral experience.
LEE NEGIN brilliantly defines a musical realm that is his alone. He effortlessly forges through the uncharted waters of musical Zen and cleverly orchestrates sound into a vibrant, visceral experience. Mr. Negin is a savvy magician welding a maestro's baton, a mystical boatman guiding the listener on an epic journey through undiscovered sonic terrain. His latest work, Wu Wei, is a quixotic adventure where East meets West in a whimsical - yet relevant - spectrum of sound. We are grateful to play the music of LEE NEGIN on our commercial free radio stream at Pluto Radio."

"Wu Wei is a deeply textured, melodic exposition of contemporary electronic music.
This week SonicTribe.com had the distinct pleasure of receiving a prerelease CD entitled Wu Wei by musician/composer extraordinaire Lee Negin. Mr. Negin is an exceptional artist possessing an eclectic knowledge base that is deftly woven into his works. In this regard, his soon to be released Wu Wei provides the listener a further extension of Mr. Negin’s substantial abilities.
What is most impressive about Wu Wei is not only that it steps well outside the constraints of any single genre but that it so fluidly combines lounge and minimal and psychill into a beautifully cogent and moving collection of songs. Wu Wei is a deeply textured, melodic exposition of contemporary electronic music.
In an era where the CD is falling out of favor Wu Wei gives ample proof that exceptional songs can be composed and then combined yielding something much greater than the whole. Wu Wei is a mellow burn, head high pushing the listener to relax and find the subtleties among the notes. It is a rare find for those of us who envision long winding drives down the coast to nowhere specific."

"(Lee Negin has) composed and created 21st century classical music here. Very cool.
I love the way the tracks deliver gentle jolts, then soothe you, lull you, and dispense a bit of bliss just before the layered voices catch your ear to usher in a feeling of alarm, kind of like a kid at his first Halloween party. Perhaps a better analogy is this: the "Wu Wei" tracks place the listener at the foundation of an edifice while it suddenly is undergoing a metamorphosis (like in a Harry Potter movie, or -- better example -- "Inception"). You feel out-of-control for a moment before the ethereal elements come back into play. Very mysterious and awe-inspiring, if a bit eerie at times. The sonic quality of the work is superb, allowing you to just sort of fall into the middle of, or perhaps float above, the very moderne electro/acoustic orchestra that has been assembled for your listening pleasure."

"Lee Negin has returned, like a long lost treasure of the ambient arts.
Lower the lights, turn on the surround sound and escape for an hour. The music will stay in your mind for a lot longer than that. This is full on Ambient experience. Lee Negin has returned, like a long lost treasure of the ambient arts. From forest walks to automated train speech, all mixed in together. A soundscape artist at work, you will know when it hits your senses. 'Tranquil Abiding' is the opening epic track, followed by 'Mind... the Gap,' the most well known soundscapes that open you up to the world that the albums creates. Just sit back, relax and really although they are on the packet, you have no need to look at the titles, you will be somewhere else in time."
