Jay Tholen offers up a very interesting musical journey with His Shadow Is Light. The heavily electronic, experimental EP is a far cry from anything you are likely to hear on Christian radio. Boasting Psychedelic and World Music influences, Tholen weaves together a patchwork that is likely to attract fans of Danielson, Soul Junk, and mewithoutYou. The most compelling track is the epic, seven minute "A Lesson in Trust." This is a terrific record, though disappointing in that it is just five tracks and 22 minutes long.
