Press Reviews
NEWS! zerO One makes 1998 TOP 5 ambient album listsat Musical Starstreams (http://www.starstreams.com/top98.html)AND Backroads Music (http://www.backroadsmusic.com/catalog/ambient/top_66.htm)REVIEWS: Amazon.com....Hearkening back to first generation electronic-groove music--Tangerine Dream, Jean Michel-Jarre, Michael Hoenig--the anonymous creator of Zero One uses samples sparingly, relying instead on rich swaths of synthesizer wash, synthetic drum programming, and electronic bass figures. The long, repetitive structures of pieces like "Hell Is Cooling Off," "Trust," and "On the Threshold" support percolating vintage synth sounds and supple beats too light for house, too breathy for techno, and too jazzy for trance. Subtitled "Calculated Adventures in Electronica," the album includes liner notes about French mathematician and astronomer Pierre Simon de Laplace, whose "differential operator" (the binary "01" code) is a key component of modern physics, and whose Nebular Hypothesis helped us understand the Solar System. While this may explain the projects name, it seems to have little bearing on the music, which nevertheless has its own empyrean delights. --James Rotondi CUSTOMER COMMENTS: ***** Five stars! Pristine sound, rich synthesizer sonic textures. The beautiful sonic result found in this CD is a combination of rich synthesizer sounds and inspiration. The synthesizer nowadays is a so widely used instrument that its easy to forget how expressive it can be. The listener can trip into the sound textures of Zero One. It has subtle electronic percussion and processed vocals blended with synthesizer sounds that are in continuous motion, which results in a unique character. |
