As promised, the long awaited Various Artists release has now arrived. Consisting of 18 tracks (around 1hr 20 minutes playing time) of some of the best submissions received from previously unreleased artists, along with some familiar faces.
The release includes ambient, idm, experimental and easy listening works, with even a vocal thrown in (for good effect). Each track of the VA is supposed to work alongside the others to create a 'picture' of Serenity.
Tracks to listen out for: Julien Mier, Life in a Teacup - Kuniklo, Still, Millipede - Paramount to name just a few.
Artists featured in this release (in order of play): Audio Cephlon, Kuniklo, ShtiFt, Kontrakt, Torley, Dril, Soundcheck, Julien Mier,Berestez (!), Island near the clouds, Millipede, Yoga Kills, Tiny Disco (half of which is otherwise known as our very own Mr Fyrek), and Worms of the Earth. Cover artwork by Aleshenko Semyon.
Enjoy this mix of excellent works and don't forget to leave comments on your favourite tracks. |

It tickles.

Deckard and Rachael goes out for an evening walk to the seashore with a bottle of good wine. Finally they see some shooting stars.

For some random reason my car mp3 player started with this track today, and I suddenly felt myself completely outdated and boring. There are some other great tracks on this release, but this one is really outstanding for me. | | | | nightmorph wrote on 11/04/10, 11:42 pm | As I wrote in my review on LiveJournal, this is the most consistently listenable compilation on Kahvi yet. I like the unified theme, which seems to be serenity, as seen in a machine world.
Favorites: everything by Kukiklo, Island Near the Clouds; their tracks end alll too soon. Same for "Sole Noid" by Torley: fantastic, but over too quickly. I need to find more stuff by Torley and Island Near the Clouds; these new artists really got my attention!
Other favorites: Soundcheck's second track, "More attention," was very evocative; it stirred my imagination the way Alexi Virta did on his album "Meets Torsti at the Space Lounge," which puts "More attention" right up there with the very best netaudio I've ever heard, period. It's too bad that his first contribution, ".ch.ch" was unlistenable. Still, he makes a worthy comeback with "More attention." I want more like this.
Tiny Disco: who's the mystery artist along with Mikael Fyrek? This track was quite good; the beat was almost four-to-the-floor, not the usual crunchy organic percussion Mikael is known for. Compelling yet unpredictable. Very beaty and meaty. More? More would be nice.
Well done, Kahvi. Thanks for this album; lots of good scifi soundscapes. | | |
