Funky Jeff: “Sensory emotive network : Where dub meets techno and deep house”
“Sensory emotive network is a calm and emotive record, highly hypnotic but not just another dub techno record. Think Deepchord but also with lush atmospherics synth pads and nice change of chords. I especially like We now understand, a 14 minute track that builds a nice climax with ever changing kick drums that takes you in a higher state of mind almost as if the track never stops building a momentum. Just when you think things will slow down, another kick drum comes in and it takes the track a whole new level.”

Mick Chillage: SEN – Sensory Emotive Network (review)
“I first discovered the music of Sen AKA UK based John Shern through myspace about five years ago, I think it was the image from the seminal George Lucas classic THX1138 that attracted me to his music, images aside I was instantly drawn by its minimal yet deep and soulful sounds a perfect balance of ambient drones, stark techno grooves and a healthy helping of human emotion, futuristic yet familiar.
So I have been eagerly awaiting Sen’s Debut album since my first encounter with his deep vibes and this year the wait is over as “Sensory Emotive Network” gets a CD and digital release through Cold tear recordings.
The album opens with the Deep droning atmospherics and rain recordings of “Soul Rain” subtle sinister strings appear creating a sense of uncertainty, slightly reminiscent of the haunting work of Mark Isham’s classic “The Hitcher” soundtrack.
Next we have “Skychords” full of shifting swirling atmospherics and a deliciously treated bluesy guitar refrain, the addition of a subtle downtempo 909 drum sequence and a deep bass growl with tastefully placed ethnic percussion keeps the track evolving nicely, resulting in a hypnotic yet deeply thought provoking mantra. ”
