   Matt Howarth / SonicCuriosity – 2022-11-22

   This 2002 CD offers a superb dose of powerful electronic music cut with lavish loyalty in the Berlin School style. Stately synthesizers generate elegant passages of dreamy substance. The electronics shimmer with chill-out predilection, slow building structures of sound that spiral into dizzying heights as they cast off ingenious riffs and cosmic textures. Each passage leads to a higher level, further ecstatic sonic plateaus that reveal even loftier altitudes ahead. Hints of synthesized cello and violin often overtake the liquid keyboard pastiche, attributing somber flavors to the heavenly ascent.
   A solid presence of lively E-perc accompanies these mesmerizing electronic melodies, injecting pep and propulsion to the flowing pulsations. Intricate and complimentary, these rhythms ingratiate themselves with the harmonic physiology. There are occasions where the percussion adopts a commanding control of the composition, plunging everything into a desperate realm of extreme gravity comparable to immense mountains in penultimate collision.

   This CD’s 71 minutes are divided into three tracks (a pair of 28-minute pieces, and a single one measuring just over 13 minutes), allowing the music to unfold gradually, accreting demonstrative layers that combine with remarkable force to achieve head-spinning crescendos with numerous transcendent peaks along the way.

   2003. Matt Howarth / SonicCuriosity

   It sounds like a stream of tears. But tears of beauty and wonder and joy. The simplicity of it gives it that mood. It is unstressed and SO relaxing to listen to.
   Thanks a Million Keller, Schonwalder & Broekhuis

   Bas Broekhuis, Detlef Keller & Mario Schnwlder est un trio allemand qui ralise de la trs belle M du style Berlin School. Drei, leur ralisation antrieure est un des meilleurs cd de M. Encore, ils viennent den produire un excellent. Un des meilleurs de cette anne. Il souvre avec Come in and chill out, et quelle ouverture. Une douce intro avec des squenceurs harmonieux. mesure que la pice progresse, des rythmes sajoutent donnant une belle cadence. Une trs belle pice. There are colours in the darkness a un tempo trs Schulzien.
   Un beau dosage de percussions qui donne un rythme hypnotique sans tomber exagrer dans la rptition. Encore une fois les squenceurs sont trs beaux. Le tout se termine avec du pianotrs beau. Wolfsburg dbute avec une intro saisissante, qui captive loreille la premire coute. Un tintamarre de percussions qui dbloque sur une symphonie lectronique. Cest un pur dlice, un vrai style Berlin School.

   Courez acheter ce cd, je le recommande fortement.
