about

This recording is no innovation it is the update to a sound that a lot of artists had been inspired by. The music ranges from symphonic strings and slow oriental rhythms to deep environmental sounds and takes you on a journey through your mind.

„Circle Of Life“ (Track 1, 20:01), ein mangels Dramaturgie keinen dramatischen Höhepunkt erreichendes Epos, wirkt wie eine Mischung aus jenen Fingerübungen, die ein K. Schulze nach vollbrachten Nachtwerk nur zum privaten Abchillen aufnimmt (und gleich ins DAT-Archiv abschiebt), und einem Album-Outtake des Dark-Ambient-Meisters Mathias Grassow. Und in „Deep Inside“ (Track 2, 8:00) setzen den Ton monochrone Chöre, denen man die eine oder andere Seite oder zumindest einen kleinen Beat als Fundament gewünscht hätte. Nicht das beste Namlook-Album also, aber ein lohnendes doch! Denn in „The Night Before I left“ (Track 4, 9:31) fügen sich alle zuvor im Übermaß angetroffenen oder bitter vermissten Elemente zu einem homogenen Space/Ambient/Trip-Hop-Crossover-Instrumental zusammen. Da, endlich springt der Funke über.

Silence Frankfurt, Germany

Silence from 1992 is Pete Namlook‘s first album release on his own Fax label and the first one of the outstanding Silence series. His creative range across the five albums is impressive: from stately progressions of warm, organic synthscapes to purely atmospheric pieces of pure texture. A timeless release series that proves that less really is more. ... more
