RB #008 [astrowind - somewhere the music had been played]
“After two amazing releases (The Night The Stars Flew/Electrosound & Into Vernadsky/12rec), Astrowind come up with another great 7-track-EP.
Deeply influenced by german krautrock, Somewhere The Music Had Been Played puts you in a warm blanket and let you float in time and space. This deep harmonic athmosphere guides you through the complete release.
From the first track soft bubbling synth-patterns and soundscapes take you by the hand and let you forget time and space around you. And leave you after 35 minutes in a calm and peaceful condition.
By the way: The whole EP was recorded during a live improvisation on soviet-era analog synth and desktop FX. An exciting example of creating music together spontaniously.”
