Press Reviews taz, Berlin/Germany (6/97). Far from any peak of time comes this well mixed up melange of Jazz, Trance and World-Music…Fortunately, nobody becomes thrown out into cold water just before Goa or paradroped to dream reservates above Australia. It`s more like finding oneself sometime, late afternoon on a hidden mediteranean beach, that is not too much interested in uninvited visitors and even is not to be misunderstood as a „Chill-Out Area"

Additional Info InRegio, Germany (3/97). Far out from common attitudes of listening, Horacz Bluminth is moving on his first Solo-CD. Electronic sounds, a bit reminding to EMB from other times, but also to contemporary ethno- or ambient-techno sounds, mixed and underlined with multiple acoustic instruments like clarinet, saxophon, harp, flutes, violins and percussion. Once oriental like 1001 Nights, twice melancholic and fragile. A challenge to the not trained listener is the singing: First confused - it could be a language from the arab sphere, he has to recognize that the voice is only one instrument among others. Improvised phonetic as a fine contrast to the „international-english" phrases.
