Review by rA Planetarium (PW 38) by Pete Namlook and Lakoff, Igr Ver (11) |
Not sure what I was expecting here. Because of the use of the word 'composer' I was kind of expecting some kind of classical/ambient variant. However, what we get is something indefinably cooler with occaisional alien-like vocals twisted around subtle electronica and lush atmospheres.There are a large range of styles with several tracks standing out as just plain beautiful - one in particular where a father talks to his young child about the enormity of the universe.
Musika i Slowa sets an almost musichall vocal stab against electro luch bleeps and an upbeat moody piano line that gets you tapping your feet. Indigo sounds like Aphex Twin as he used to with flutes overlaying a sweeping orchestral style that is truly uplifting and fresh.
The fact that there are twelve tracks is appealing since it gets us away from the older formulas of winding and sometimes monotonous long pieces. It also squeezes more ideas out of the 'composers' - I wonder if we will hear some more from these people?
