Edited one year agointellectual synthy - jazz jamming and perfect sound like “ live bad effect “. I can only recommend -
very well recorded but does not connect omotionally with me at all.my digital copy will be going in the r/bin.

Edited one year agoAnother quality album added to this quality series. A excellent trip into a sophisticated listening bringing the 70/80’s muiscverse with the now modern - mixing electronic ambient-Idm-kraut-guitar and many uses of different genres from both the past and present.

Edited 10 years agoThis one has loads of "real" instruments played by Pete Namlook and Wolfram Spyra, there are even electric guitar solos! As a result the album often tends to sound more like fusion jazz or instrumental rock than ambient/techno... But the truth is that Namlook and Spyra aren't brilliant enough as instrumentalists to do any impressive solos, and the sound on this album is too mannered and safe in general for this kind organic-electronic hybrid to go beyond what others have been doing better since the 1970s. This is not a bad album, but it just doesn't stand out in any way. And I have to say that (unlike on many other Namlook records) the surround sound wasn't used particularly well here, there isn't much of a difference between listening to the album in 5.1 or in stereo.

Starts off with that oh so familiar Der Spyra sound, snaking its way through the electronic world. Laid back with a jazzy guitar which seemingly roams into a chilled out direction, yet remaining rather upbeat.Namlook and Der Spyra's sounds and melodies mix effortlessly into a spacey abyss of somber beats and wandering electronics. Closing your eyes, the DTS disc may take you to tropical places never seen. The DTS version progresses into a deep ambient venture that never lets up. Namlooks guitar work creates a psychedelic medium which enhances the electronics. This sound gives it a 60's/70's feel, yet never loosing sight on modern mature sounds. Some may find this too mature to their liking.
There isn't a weak track on this album. This is my favorite of the Virtual Vices series.
