Anthony Milton


Mais outra perfomance de Anthony Milton.

Vejam os comentário0s sobre esse album, que encontrei no site Ikuissus:

The concept for this album is a pretty simple one, Milton received an Orla chord organ (an instrument that pretty much begs to be used for drones) as a present from a friend and decided to use it as the primary source material for this album. You might be tempted to think Antony has gone and sabotaged himself by chaining himself to such an instrument for an entire album but, through some skilful recording and processing, he has produced a wonderfully dynamic drone album.

'Sky Voltage (reeds)' features a bass throb that seemed to wanna tear apart my shitty bedside stereo the first time I played it. When played at high volume this record is really quite forceful. Its drones are too soaring and insistent not to capture your full attention. Like Morton Feldman's Rothko Chapel, this is sound that leaves no corner of the room unfilled with sound.

'Some Dreams Must' offers a momentary lull in the ecstatic organ action, opening with the sound of what seems to be the organ's fan belt. It then moves into some piercing whirring notes played on the Orla's higher register. The track swells into something that is kinda like a piece by Growing, but played by one guy with an organ.

The record ends with 'Chamber Lull', a lovely closer featuring plucking of the organ's springs. It offers a slow return to the world after total sound immersion that has gone before.

Cue this album up back to back with Tony Conrad's "Joan of Arc" to really take a journey inside that eternal sound. 9/10" - Cola Nitida / Foxy Digitalis

Diferente e unico!!!
