"The second recording Mark Nelson has made under the Pan American imprint continues and expands the rhythmic intricacies of its forbearer as new instrumental and melodic textures are added to the mix. Like Pan American, 360 Business/360 Bypass was recorded by Mark Nelson at his home studio. Special guests Alan Sparhawk and Mimi Parker of Low add vocals, cornetist Rob Mazurek from the Chicago Underground Duo/Trio contributes some distinctly Cherryesque horn solos, and the entire album was mixed digitally with the aid of Casey Rise, the designer at Classics, Chicago. Rhythms trace and underpin vaporous melodies, or disappear altogether. Pan American balances atmospheric dread with hints of dub, funk and bossa nova as few artists can, hinting at a whiff of Studio One while utilizing digital technologies."
