Nice nujazz sound in Crazy Monkeys, freely laid back. Magnetosphere creates a different ambience. Well formed and maintained, with just a sprinkling of very loose jazz sounds. The start to Re-motions is ground shaking stuff. Love it. Beautiful atmospherics and sound-scaping but there is confidence enough in the production for me not to be even writing this. La Meteo, again a lovely confident structuring and delivery. Brilliant sound construction. Very professional sounding and with a tasty sense of progression and measure. Artfully done with a fine balance and sense of what's needed in just the right spaces, at the right paces. Pretty stunning percussion.
Iceberg is no exception to the rules already in play. Everything is placed just in the right place at the right time, in just the right measure. As Pan says 'perfect' and it actually is, a sign of a truly accomplished musician who takes his art seriously and doesn't need the likes of me telling him that. However, I will tell the prospective listener that this is well worth listening to, just for the experience. Never mind downloading an album for nothing, get into the sounds and support this magician.
Quiet Now is absolutely fantastic, it needs to be played loud. One of the best interpretations of 'silence' in music, I have ever heard, if not THE best. As an ex-drummer I appreciate how skilful you have to be to play percussion like this and the accompanying sound shaping is totally exquisite. Fine stuff. Ssssh, just listen. Then, we arrive to meet the title track, usually the force majeure, and here it is but is also, curiously, is not. What it does say to me that the whole album has already been that and this is just the last track, to finish a perfect album off perfectly. Wide in structure and spacious enough to pack in a lot more, but again there is just the right amount to make it work fantastically well. A prime mover in musical alchemy. Thanks for sharing the experience.
