"Valerie
Loop": Extended ambient successions opens the piece in heavily
modal sweeps, painting a landscape reminiscent of some early Brian Eno /
Jon Hassell leisures ("Possible Musics", "Discreet
Music"). Jazzy bells of the keyboards and soft rustles of the
high-hat move this summer music into an absentminded meditation...
You're left standing on the sidewalk. You forget who you are... and
soundless voids appear and recede...
"When Julia Smiles": Like a sad, sorrowful ballad of olden
days, gone-by centuries, this brief comment passes in an atmosphere akin
to that of medieval troubadours portraying princesses and gallant riders
of Brittany...
It's a repetitious game, semi-minimalistic in the intense
absentmindedness and introversion of a platonic relationship with
reality.
Beautifully counterpoints of piano and strings signal a sign-language
message of restfulness and appeasement. It's a sad audio poem of the
moment...
(...)
This is one of the dreamiest, most sensual audio collections I've heard.
Beautiful! (with an edge!) The cover art by Giovanni Antognozzi
perfectly matches the fastidious content of the CD with its laconic,
minimalistic expression!
