Novel 23 :: Biogenes Resources (Art-Tek)

Biogenes Resources is a testament to what a new generation of Russian electronic artists would do. The hope and whimsy that permeate the album hark back to a time of potential, where possibilities stretched across the many time zones of the vast Eastern land. In this reproduction, using the original MIDI files, the past reminds us of both the preciousness of our freedom of expression and that such expression can never be stifled.

Jessica Roch :: Human Music: Live Improvisations I (Past Inside the Present)

Human Music: Live Improvisations I serves as both a statement and a philosophy. What I hear is a collection of live performance recordings, each about 6-7 minutes long, one player/performer using layers and loop technology to play many instruments at once in a live setting, creating classical flavored music improvisations and instrumental expressions with haunting vocals that are entirely without word content, just emotional tones that bend and transmit.
