Solar Flare was conceived at three different sessions in Munich and Basel by Jürgen Eberhard, Chris Sigdell and Oswin Czerwinski. | |
From what I gather from the website of NID they have been around for some time, but somehow escaped me. They are a three piece band from Munich, consisting of Jürgen Eberhard, Chris Sigdell and Oswin Czerwinski. The pieces on this release were captured at three different sessions and all a certain live feel to it. Based upon what I hear I think they use a variety of synths, guitars, samplers and effects. I also believe that the material was recorded on a two track recorder, leaving not much room to mix or edit the material. Especially in the longer tracks this can be heard all to well. A long piece like 'Post-flare Loop' doesn't have enough variation or dynamics to hold ones attention throughout, which is a pity. Some form of editing and mixing would have made this into a much nicer release. Now it comes off as a not too well imitation of Troum or any some such darker ambient industrial bands. by frans de waard @ vital weekly Reptilian HUB modem that crashed to the paradise apparatus of the human body pill cruel emulator corpse feti streaming of the soul/gram made of retro-ADAM chemical anthropoid NID are covered cardiac mass of flesh-module plug-in.

"Solar Flare" ist eine atmosphärisch dichte und dunkle Angelegenheit. Ein weites, flächiges Panorama wechselt mit wabernden, schwülen "Urwald"-Momenten. Die 7 auf "Solar Flare" präsentierten Ambiancen überzeugen auf jeden Fall, eine Live Beschauung wäre sicherlich interessant. "A solar flare occurs when magnetic energy that has built up in the solar atmosphere is suddenly released." Mehr dazu im Booklet der limitierten CD Veröffentlichung. by Creative Eclipse | ||
