Das Werk
Expo '70 is the improvisational essence of Justin Wright. Started in Los Angeles in 2003, Expo '70's first album "Animism", which debuted in 2007 on Kill Shaman, is an eclectic mix of krautrock, ambient drone, space exploration and minimal compositions. Comparisons range from Brian Eno, Ash Ra Tempel, A.R. & Machines, SunnO))) and Earth, but without sounding exactly like any of those artists.
