My review
Simon Heath of Atrium Carceri once again shows that creativity and originality is the key to success. "From Soil To Space" takes his Krusseldorf style to a whole new level, and not only that, he also shows that psychedelic chill out music is way far of being dried out of ideas and innovations. He just looked at things from other, microcosmic perspective and revealed incredible world of sound. I found the title to be absolutely perfect for this album, and it's style. It tells a story of molecules of elementary particles colliding and reacting, slowly changing matter and transforming into new ones. It's a tale of evolution and a journey of one big melting pot of chemistry such we are to vast and unexplored space. Sound quality on this album is spectacular. Simon is very well known for his high quality output, but as opposed to blurry post-apocalyptic sound of Atrium Carceri, Krusseldorf is clean, harmonic and punchy. Moods vary from really mellow and dubby pieces resembling his work from previous album "Bohemian Groove" with tracks like "First Blood" and "Soe Doe". While these are not particularly innovative, things get deeper and trippier with amazing microscopic glitch works of "The Cell", "From Soil To Space" and others, focusing on different rhythmic structure and very original melodic sequences. Well, anyway, this album is best heard from start to end, because every tracks has its own story and identity. It is really a rewarding listen, and i think it is suitable for wide range of music lovers: idm, psychedelic chill and ambient fans will all appreciate this sound. Also, it reminds me a little bit of Bop's "The Amazing Adventures Of One Curious Pixel" because of those cutting edge glitchy sounds, beats and basslines all fused together into this thick, compact wall of sound. Highly recommended |
