Comment: Fennesz (born in 1962) is Christian Fennesz, the Austrian sound explorer/electronic musician who does not to be introduced for the melomans, though. There is presented just one lengthy composition which will be ended up at 48.13. Furthermore, it is a conceptual publication thought for one dance performance. More profoundly, he makes up layers of sparse, digitally sounding motives and on the other side these elements are backdropped with massive bass thudding. Stylistically it veers away from Borealia-tinged ambient and fine glitchtronica to more post-rock-ish epicness (indeed, undulating glitch-y soundscapes are seamlessly fused with static but mesmerizing guitar washes) or there is up more soothing sonic gliding to fade away below the sky. In the final part Fennesz will enter into the realm of subtle folktronica. In a nutshell, it sounds like a hallmark of today`s classical music.
