Ameerika netiplaadifirma Noisy Vagabond'i all üllitatud 6-looline taies voolab kuulaja ajju, valgub sealt edasi üle organismi ning väljub märkamatult. Peaks nagu imeline kuulamiselamus olema - kas pole? Kes eeldab vulgaarsust, valuimpulsse ning vigasust, siis seda siin ei pakuta. Mainitud intrigeerivuse puudumisest hoolimata on tulemus meelierutav, kuivõrd sisuliselt on tehtud kuldlõige ämbiendi, postroki, klassikalise muusika ning New Age'i kokkupuutealalt. Elik jäädes ankrusse mõtlikkuses ja sissepööratuses, hakkamata nuudeldama ja kolistama, et luua kohustuslikus korras kontrasti ja kontrapunkte. See muusika siin on harras voog, milles vähesed elemendid on rakendatud hapra meloodia teenistusse -- justkui koosnekski taies kontrollitud ent paisuvast elektroonilisest orkestratsioonist, mille faalanksist aeg-ajalt tulevad esile klaverid, vokaal ning kitarrid. Emotiivselt need pingetõusud ja -langused hullutavad kuulajat -- mõtlen, et see on ka vaikusega kurameerimine - isegi vaikusesse vajumine - viisil nagu seda tegi Talk Talk karjääri teisel poolel (pluss Mark Hollis'e sooloalbum). Soovitan kõigile osa saada sellest imetabasusest.

Leeduka Dominykas Niaura teine album -- pärast viieaastast pausi sama maa netiplaadifirma Electron Emitter'i all. Muusika, mida nimetaksin transgressiivseks indiks -- avatud uste ja akendega; avatud peaaegu kõigele. Ühes loos mängib eepiliselt aeglane, ent raskete klaveriakordidega lugu tänavaaskelduste taustal -- või siis vastupidi. Või siis meisterlik tuulekellade kilin-kolin madalate basside kohal, millele hiljem lisanduvad oreli impro ning sõnaline pool. Pisikesed elemendid, ent täpselt ajastatud ning doseeritud. Üks lugudest läheb väga diibiks kätte läbi süvatehnoliku tunneli. Tuletab meelde sama liini artiste Eestist nagu Myrakaru, varane Galaktlan ja Uni. Tänapäevane indi tähendab loomulikult ka sämpledeelse elemendi ja mutantkingapõrnitsemise esindatust. Isegi konkreetmuusikale suudetakse anda eepiline mõõde. Kõik see avardab emotiivselt fooni, aga ka annab lootust, et muusikas ei ole veel kõik ära öeldud -- võib edasi areneda. Üldistades -- leedukate oma Seefeel või Paavoharju (oleneb konkreetsest loost või vaatenurgast). Väga kõva album! Uksi ja aknaid ei õnnestunud riivi panna.

See 7-looline taies Kataloonia pundilt sama piirkonna netiplaadifirma Bestiar'i all on kujundatud rokkmuusika konventsioonide ja katsetuste piirimail, sillates pungi jõulisust, sirgjoonelisust ja toorust meloodiate, nurgeliste kidramustrite, korduste ja neile ehitatud uute kihtidega. Meetod on arusaadav, ent muusikasse kätketud korduste ja improvisatsioonilise elemendi segunemine tagab teosele piisava sügavuse, et seda korduvalt ja korduvalt kuulata. On nii matemaatilise kidramuusika mõõdet kui jahtrokilikku pastelsust. Normaalne, et ei pakuta pakendatud eimidagiütlevust.

Lobit

Tõmmates paralleele Radiohead'iga, siis võiks üllitist "RISK ISKR" pidada Vene duo (Jevgeni Haritonov ja Mihhail Lezin) "Kid A" albumiks. Nende eksperimentaalmuusika/rokk on siin peaasjalikult abstraheeritud madalabitiseks pruuniks müraks. Sinna vahele on pikitud helindeid, mis korraks juhivad tähelepanu eemale, ent üldjoontes on see nüristava helindi näide -- ilmselt eesmärgistatult. Müramuusika mõiste algselt oli seotud modernismiga -- nimetatud voolu esindajad uskusid arengusse, kusjuures sõda pidi olema uuenduste katalüsaatoriks. Tõsi, Esimese maailmasõja destruktiivsus (võrreldes varasemate sõdadega) tegi ka nende arusaamadesse tõsiseid korrektiive. Ja õigusega -- praeguseks hetkeks ollakse jõutud arusaamisele, et Neljas ilmasõda peetaks kaigaste ja kividega. Eks see 10-looline peegeldabki sõja kui fenomeni absurdi ja inimloomuse madalaimat ühisnimetajat, olles peeglina sellest igati väärtuslikum ja seistes kõrgemal. Teisalt jälle võib seda taiest mõista iroonilise kommentaarina muusikas kõrge kvaliteediga helindite poole püüdlejatele, näidates, et seesugune esmapilgul madal võib olla vähemalt sama emotiivne. Siin on üks väga ilmekas absurdi edastav koht, kus inimhääl moondub kana kaagutamiseks, millele järgnevad püssilasud ning karjumine. Album on üllitatud paar nädalt enne Vene-Gruusia sõda PROC-REC'i all.
