We are joined once again by Leo Abrahams on guitar (although it's highly unlikely you'll be able to tell it's a guitar due to Leo's mastery of sonic origami). Today's rules: 75bpm / Bells / Space / 6 mins

About Crossjam
From the publisher's feed
Crossjam is a daily music improvisation between Stevie J Jones and Jules Maxwell, recorded every lunchtime at their little workspace in Brockley Cross, London.
Jules and Stevie J grew up in a Northern Irish coastal town called Bangor and have known each other for 30 years. Between them, they have played with a host of bands and artists including Brian Eno, Dead Can Dance and AIR as well as creating soundtracks for shows at The Royal Opera House and Shakepeare’s Globe Theatre.
Crossjam is an opportunity for them to set aside their ongoing individual projects for about ten minutes each day and make some music with each other. The recordings are raw and unedited, published every weekday afternoon.
