Cyclotimia – celestis (CD)



Fourth album from this Russian electronic music duo of Max Khachmanukyan (music sampling, keyboards, market rituals), and Leonid Makarov (sound engineering, drums programming, and electronic manipulation). This is my first Cyclotimia listening experience. I know you can`t judge a book by it`s cover. All I can say is DAMN (sorry Ron Simmons)! There`s a beautiful picture of space on the cover. I`ve been hearing this one none stop all week long, yes it`s that good. There`s no standout pieces. The whole album is standout material. Cyclotimia likes experimenting with various forms of electronics: spacy downtempo, cold / space ambience, weird spacy instrumental, dark black holish instrumentations, cold / spacy minimalism, and downtempo ambient noise. In space, no one can hear you scream. Space is the place. There`s a black hole in my soul. This is it`s soundtrack. Imagine a three-way jam session on the dark of the moon with Lull, Tangerine Dream and Lustmord. Well that`s about it. More info here: http://zhb.radionoise.ru/eng/news.html
