Between Insides and his successor Immunity Jon Hopkins worked with King Creosote the charming Diamond Mine, which set to music the ruminations of the Scottish singer / songwriter to a background which was half rural folk and semi evocative Klanggeplätscher. Immunity is not nearly as audible as it was this cooperation, but its soft, airy feeling sounds on some of these songs to: "Breathe This Air" expands from a throbbing house rhythm to a spacious piano-meditation, the same Max Richter as Diamond Mine also remembered calling, while the title track - the random King Creosotes includes singing - the album decides to whispering kind. This feeling extends to less obvious way on the rest of the album; Immunity is often a more mixed and extensive sounding work as Insides, especially on songs like the Brian Eno-like "Abandon Window" and "form by Firelight" that makes a playful study of contrasts in the way it creates small delays and then unwinds a peaceful piano melody. Some of the most impressive moments Immunitys go closer to the mix of rhythm and atmosphere, the Hopkins hevorhob on ... "Collider" uses the sighing song of Dark Horses' Lisa Elle as punctuation for almost imperceptibly changing beats and heavy bass line the track helps to build up to an evocative, elegant whole; however transformed the aptly titled "Sun Harmonics" Elles voice into something angelic in the course of twelve quiet minutes. Despite these high points, the album still reflects how Hopkins' smoothly polished approach both curse as blessing. Immunity shows that he was more mature as a composer and producer in his subtle, capable nature, yet his tracks feel sometimes like the setting for a center of gravity that is never reached. But even if it does not always demands the full attention of the listener, Immunity is nevertheless carefully crafted.
