on the plate this week are,
air liquid "the increased difficulty of concentration"-from sm:)e
laswell/sharp's "visitation"-from subharmonic
air liquid's doulble album was what i expected to get. some good,
entertaining ambient/trance/idm. i haven't heard "nephology" so i can't
compare, but "concentration" includes a wide aray of tunes from from
melodic trance/dance, to the venerable "liquid men...", to atmospheric
trance, and that damn sexy voice makes 3 of 4 appearances (shudder).
also, a spiffy 10" is available (4 tracks) from smile@echonyc.com.
(radio folk should ask for Aden)
the "visitation" lp from laswell/sharp is IMHO much like
"psychonavigation" (from namlook/laswell). the difference is
that it has jonah's influence. track one (of two, each 30 minutes
long) is what the man said last week, jonah's live ambient with
laswell's distinctive baselines floating in and out. track two,
has this of beat, heart beat (with out the dub from lub-dub) that
puts me in a trance and eventually to sleep. If you liked "psycho-
navigation" and like jonah sharp, "visitation" is a must buy.
also add my name to the teex3 fan club.
onNow: air liquid-"ek-stasis" from the 10"
dan.....
