AMBIENT SPACE MUSIC

O N

SynGate - CD-R 2013

ON is a wonderful blend of space music that spans future and past. “Tethys_drone” starts with shimmering tones and cool low-key percussion. The mood is reminiscent of the hip groove-laden stuff from AtmoWorks.com or Databloem. In fact, this really doesn’t sound like a SynG@te release at all, as the label tends toward more melodious material. But tracks like “phiyang” are decidedly in the abstract ambient camp, quirky but engaging. “Nectaris” is one of the few with a retro-sounding sequence, but even it would be right at home next to Pete Namlook or the like. On the other hand, as you might expect, “phaedra_2_k” is unabashedly vintage in its sound. Modern or retro, it’s all good, and these fourteen short diverse tracks fit together extremely well. Highly recommended

... This is one of my favourite ambient albums in a long time. It never just relies on over indulgent float, there is always something going on. For the most part however (apart from on two of the sequencer based tracks) the mood is relaxed and usually warm (a word I have used a lot in this review) though always with intriguing undercurrents.
