Comment: While I have deplorably not written any comments/reviews about Daniel Maze`s oeuvre, I have been a fan of him for a while. (Funny, if I think about the Canadian music I used to relate him to Loscil, Tim Hecker, Muhr, GY!BE). The musician from Vancouver has been a profilic composer searching for innovatively striking fields in the realms of ambient, minimal music, sound art, noise, and experimental electronica. Similarly to this 3-pieced album, which consists of 3 long developments. In fact, Maze deserves his surname, propelling from tense, glitch-fried soundscapes and microtonal progressions (digital stridulation of grasshoppers!!!) to slightly soaring, throbbing plateaus and austere abstractness (at times made up of the crackles only), from pulsating electronic music to laid-back noise outbursts/and metallic orchestrations laid out sometimes. I am sure La Monte Young, Luigi Archetti, and Glenn Branca would like this record. In conclusion, it is a classic album of the electronic/and ambient music indeed.
