Comment: these 29 blithesome minutes can be compared with Tangerine Dream and the so-called Berlin School though the US-based Macroform`s 10-track issue chimes like a diluted, watery version of it. Yet it does not mean it is weaker than the German legends` music. It is not the point at all. More concretely, it does mean some similar sonic templates and stylistic elements are adopted to be added to the sonic body yet its emotive side is arranged quite differently. For sure, it is a blithesome journey through outer space, across the meadow, on one`s serene mood. For instance, listen to Verbatim which is thoroughly awesome. In fact, at times some compositions go onto a more thoughtful strip yet the sensation is bittersweet rather than sad and somehow depressive I would dare to say. Obviously Tedious is the most "invasive" track on it with those readily bouncy rhythmic parts and thumping bass drumming at bottom. There is no hesitation to have any doubts about the experience and skills by Macroform. With the recent one you can listen to 43 albums by him at Jamendo (since 2006).
