Following his departure from Shapeshifter, Jim Tetlow formed an ongoing occasional project called Hemamorphite, who play a meditational music involving synthesizers, Tibetan singing bowls, guitars and voice. This album fits in perfectly as the step between later instrumental Shapeshifter and early Endgame. The long awaited debut AWAITING LEWIN is a padoxically powerful meditative album riding the edge between serenity and psychedelic distress! The music is often calming but there is an omnipresent sense of unease.
