>excellent spacious ambient release.

yep, i certainly have to second lance's recommendation. funny, because i'm sure i popped the disc in when it first arrived & i didn't think i liked it... but on reflection, it's really, really nice. i especially like the fact that it doesn't wear its production on its sleeve -- a subtle combination of digital and analog (or "organic" as some will insist upon calling it), it's neither all glitch nor pure guitar-drone, though there are certainly elements of both. lovely, spacious bell-tone shimmer. it's funny, because it's been a long time since i heard any ambient i really, really liked. i wish there were more stuff out there like this (and parmentier), that managed to create new spaces in ambient music rather than treading the ol' isolationist drone-scape. p

actually phil several years ago i started to shy away from ambient releases but have gotten back into the genre within the past year or so. if you like the pulse programming release i suggest you try: . Cathars: amorpheus cd (Miau-Miau International) . Andrew Coleman: s/t 12" (Thrill Jockey) . Shuttle358: optimal cd (12k) . Novisad: s/t cd (Tom) . Jacob Mandell: Healing cd (Kodama) . Minit: music cd (Sigma Editions) . Vladislav Delay: ele cd (Sigma Editions) -->-Lance--- mclance@nacs.net lance@inaudible.com p.o. box 450715 westlake, ohio 44145 united states

any place online to hear snippets of this? also can't find a web page for aesthetics or any place that has the disc for sale. thanks. also...must insist people get the cathars cd. listened to it again last night and must say it rocks (in an eno/oval kind of way).
