Hiya...
Anyone hear this yet? I'm listening to it now...just streaming at my place, medium volume as I'm pottering around the apartment, giving my dogs their DEMANDED attention...really gorgeous stuff. (Hmmmm, my condo as an installation...there's a concept!!)
I'm thinking if it was, say 20 years earlier I wouldn't really be "appreciating" this stuff as much as I do now...but that was a different time, and definitely a different head space for me. But now is now and this is a perfect foil for all the Cyclic Law material (and it's plentiful) I've been overdosing on lately.
So, there is enough going on here sonically to keep this from being a pure low key ambient drone cycle (at least about an hour into it of it's 5 + hour duration over the course of 5 cd's) but still, extremely slow moving and quite blissful. Lots of electronic sound-posts to latch on to such as incredibly sustained ringing bells, minimalist piano notes drenched in all kinds of reverb, deep subsonic bedrocks, tapped metal against metal and under-pining alot of it is the infinitely sustained electronic drone.
I'm liking it the more I hear...and I can probably see myself reaching for it during different environmental scenarios. (What I mean by this is...I live on the 22nd floor in downtown Chicago and have a great view of an industrial/urban landscape that is in flux right now...gotta love gentrification, right? Anyway, the view obviously changes with the southern exposure I've got, not to mention seasonally. This music is a great limbic soundtrack to all of that.)
High recco on this one!
best
Michael
