Review.
From the very beginning stanza's music throws you into the land full of pricisely constucted sounds creating gloomy atmospheres aimed to provoke listener's vision about urbanistic landscapes. "This is a futuristic description of the big cities and I really wouldn't like to live there." Mechanical pulsations in form of heavy drum beats weaved with dense everchanging eerie electro manipulations being frequently injured by metal scratches, altogether build up aforementioned subltle atmospheres. The music is constantly changing and no vocals are used here although sometimes they are replaced by voice samples which fit the whole musical obscurity just fine. All of the sounds blend together creating a pulsating labyrinth of sounds from which sometimes voices cry out. The stereoscopic and placement of various instrument voices change and move sporadically to create a changing texture that is the base of this definitely experimental approach creating a unique enviroment which becomes more and more defined through subsequent listenings .
