i just got a lagowski release called prismatic, recorded march 94 - april
95. the only idm-type lagowski i have to compare it to is
toxality/time/formant from 92, which to my ears still maintains its
vitality (actually my ears are being newly awakened as i've been lost in
beatless ambience for quite some time). prismatic has similarities, and is
very nice, a steady onslaught of beats with washes and pulses of smooth as
well as quirky electronics. there are a few intriguing vocal samples looped
here and there, with an occasional ambient break. only one song here to
satisfy lovers of lagowski's ambient side, a 12 minute piece of rumbling,
pulsating drones and sounds with mysterious spoken word loops. called
impossible dream, it is prime eerie ambient lagowski as documented
earlier in time by his false dawn, die datenschleuder, and knowledge releases.
prismatic is on the hypnotism label, and fits in well stylistically with
previous releases.
