Macro's one long winding track was the kind of thing that used to put me off FAX discs but I'm happy to chill out to this kind of thing once in a while, not least because this is an inventive and varied piece of music that can command your attention if you want to, or act as a kind of wallpaper music at low volume. Macro begins with fractured and echoing voice sounds on a dark shoreline while a giant generator crackles on the purple beach. Echoing drum and metal taps finally give way to a mournful and growing sound crossing which warms up the cold air. A stark cymbal sound gives way to a light beat that taps along in a slightly disjointed way but the effect is quite dramatic. We are no well away from the alien shore and somewhere in space as the format is set for an interplay between synth washes and light echoing sounds and the use of drums that, second time round, appear more persistent and the surrounding ambient warmth almost gives way to something resembling a theme that takes us out in a style similar perhaps to Psychonavigation. Create 2 Environmental San Francisco I The sound of a skateboard and trains clicking by are gradually overlaid by understated lurking orchestrals which give the feeling of approaching menace. Fire sirens and random low-key electronic stabs create an atmospheric urban landscape. A much warmer set of chords enters the fray to calm things down but the environment returns along with a pulsing bass beat that just rolls along. Contrasting beats with environmental sounds works well and could almost resemble a curious ambient form of jazz. Beats, sounds of traffic and noise lead the track out. Fine stuff. I was less keen on Siddharta and OM. In Siddharta electronic birds and washes of sound provide a backdrop for a spoken word piece while OM begins in a similar way with an electronically treated voice chanting wisdom as sub bass and washes of ambience fill the room. This particular piece improves into something more coherent but it remains a bit irritating. Environmental San Francisco II brings us back to the kind of territory we know and love. The sounds of heavy traffic moving are cut into sound fragments that end suddenly with echo's. This surreal effect is used as the backdrop to building warm synth sounds which shine out over the murky urban noise. Clicking beats and soft cymbal sounds give a slow pace to the washes of sound and voices barely heard in the background. Something of a fifty/fifty disc but many may rate the middle two tracks higher than I did while the San Francisco tracks are classics in their own right that probably make it worth getting for these alone. - --- + To post: ; to mail a person: + To unsubscribe: "unsubscribe" to + Online info at: www.faxlabel.com www.hyperreal.org/fax www.2350.org ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 27 Apr 1999 9:01 -0800 From: "Basil A.
