Here's the great review we've had from Zero Tolerance Magazine (#30 jul/aug)

The Psychogeographical Commission - Genius Loci - Acrobiotic Records

5/6 (Exceptional)

One of the more interesting releases to pass through reviewers hands this year, The Psychogeographical Commission create ambient, textured music that celebrates and explores the relationship of person and place, namely Urbanus Humanus and the luxurious concrete, steel and glass cage he has constructed for himself. Heady stuff to tackle with lyric and tone, but the purveyors mrsix and Hokano  do a fine job blending sonic experimentation with a dark and velvety rhythm to bring the listener to a new level of awareness of their surroundings. In short, it works. The album’s title, Genius Loci, meaning ‘Spirit of Place’, tells well of what lies within; meant to be listened to while gliding though the tube or dwarfed by buildings, this release works equally in the rural landscape. Fans of Coil and Nurse with Wound may stumble upon a familiar brilliance here and would do well to pick this one up if you can find it. More is to come in the future from this project, and I for one am looking forward to it.
