Comment: this 8-track issue was
released 9 years ago but its actuality could be even a bit more
brought forth today than many years ago. Recently artists within the
indie/alternative music exploit electronic devices as a main
instrument to express their aesthetic and artistic ambitions. I am
quite sure that soon such a sort of ambient music as represented here
will be tagged as indie. However, it should not be surprising at all
because history used to repeat itself. Its spiral curve was presented
many decades ago with the appearance of krautrock with regard to its
inner logic of development, from guitars to be left for synthesizers
and for poignant electronic manipulation until it would have changed
for a new beginning with other accents. It is partly movement, it is
partly the consolidation of an old tradition, and the rejection of
it. And sometime this pattern gets forgotten while the repetition is
again thinkable. Throughout these 8 pieces one can follow these air
and elemental part laden layers full of ennobling emotions and lofty
sensations. In fact, its sophisticated technical side does not burn
out emotions within it because it is artistically finely balanced.
This awesome outing is a bit of the discography of Abyssa.
