The available review highlights Uton (Jani Hirvonen) transforming saxophone recordings by Janne Martinkauppi into drone-driven, avant-jazz and ambient soundscapes. Sax On, Sax Off (recorded Feb 2016 in Turku) blends noise, synthetic minimalism and post-industrial textures. Released on Eiderdown Records, the album is presented in six movements. The reviewer rates it 4/5 and praises Hirvonen's approach as sound alchemy.

For:Listeners of drone, experimental, avant-jazz, ambient and noise music; fans of saxophone-based sound manipulation and small-label releases.

 Jani Hirvonen is a true sound alchemist: "Sax On, Sax Off" is practically an album based on the work of saxophonist Janne Martinkauppi, whose recordings have been virtually transformed into a new synthetic form, which teeters between new age and what is defined as avant-jazz.
