MODE....... VBRkbps / Joint-Stereo

Next to Redshift, FSP are the most popular band amongst our customers,
so a new album is something of an event. Desolate Landscape just
oozes atmosphere as a low brooding rumble is joined by sinister
undulating drone. Gradually things get more intense, like a vast
turbulent cloud of evil coming down to Earth engulfing all before it.
In the fourth minute a sequence can be heard low in the mix like the
frightened pulse of some fleeing animal. Another sequence in deployed
then another as if an opposing force is joining battle with the
darkness. The pulsations keep coming forming an avalanche of notes that
will have fans of mid seventies Tangerine Dream in raptures though I am
not sure if TD ever did anything quite this powerful! A haunting lead
line hangs above all the mayhem like the vast hand of some divine being
ready to strike. My God what an incredible way to start an album!

Gent 4 has a rather steamy rainforest beginning with cosmic twitters
and shimmers mixing together. More electronics mimicking strange alien
animal noises create en edgy tension. This is atmospheric picture music
of the highest order and the sounds chosen are simply awesome - in a
nightmarish sort of way. Sighing wordless vocal pads are punctuated by
metallic clangs- sounds from the depths of Hell itself. A percussive
sequence can be heard very low in the mix making things sound a little
Schulzian. Slowly, oh so slowly, this sequence becomes more prominent
and another can just be heard developing in its wake. This second one
grows and overtakes its partner. Melodic pads swell as the power
increases. Think of Mirage. A further sequence bubbles up through the
mix. Its mesmerizing stuff best to just close your eyes and let the
music take you with it.
