Even though I'm still waiting for the Sequential re-release (and I guess that many are waiting for the Datacide II & organic Cloud one). - -- Riccardo .. . . . . . . . . .. tradepages www.crosswinds.net/~stm73/ .. . . . . . . . . .. - ----- Original Message ----- From: Corbin, Nick (CAP, EEF) To: Sent: Friday, May 04, 2001 5:17 PM Subject: (fax) Going crazy...? > > > Nick > > > > > This e-mail is intended for the addressee(s) named above only.

V is simply a good match to the other parts of the series. Neither better nor worse, in my opinion, just a good sequel that should please everybody who liked one of the former releases. The only obvious slight conceptual differences from previous Silence parts are the soprano vocals from Jenny Gibbert whose voice already appeared on Virtual Vices II and The Fires of Ork II, and the guitar showing up in the second half of the last track. No innovation, but sublime, yearning, classic sound... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Not having heard the first one but familiar with Biosphere's work, I'm surprised how mediocre this record is. Perhaps this will grow on me, but the whole album sounds disjointed, and at 53 min., they could've done so much more with it. "In Heaven" sounds like a "lost" track from Vir.Vices2, "Sky Lounge" sounds like a new-age waltz, "Nouvelles Machines" is a waste of 12 minutes, and the other two atmo tracks "When the Night.." and "A Way to Focus..." are mediocre at best. IMO, this album also suffers from overuse of sampled voices, something which Namlook has been guilty of for the past couple of years. I don't know if I'm alone on this, but to me a 53 min. electronic album is a rip-off (what happened to all those great long 70 min. Fax albums?), especially if the material doesn't make up for the lack of playing time. Which brings me to the lovely 79 min. "View to a Chill." I think Namlook did a great job of picking and sequencing these tracks, and I would rather listen to this and appreciate the highlights of his solo albums than listen to most of those in their entirety, as many aren't strong all the way through or just simply drag on for too long. - --Chris k. ------------------------------ End of faxlist-digest V2001 #67 ******************************* --- + To post: ; to mail a person: + To unsubscribe: "unsubscribe" to + Online info at: www.faxlabel.com www.hyperreal.org/fax www.2350.org
