"These Things Happen" is a unique album from a percussionist who has worked with Arthur Russell, Laurie Anderson, Steve Reich, David Byrne, Brian Eno and many more. In some ways this bizarre masterpiece has the vibe of an instrumental Talking Heads record, at least percussively, but the use of sampling and constantly shifting themes elevates the album to an undefinable yet nevertheless thoroughly enjoyable status. Lots of saxophone, world music beats, electronics, and production that at this point would be called hypnagogic make this a dense albeit very fun album from David Van Tieghem.
