Very good for those nights when the crawlies creep. I discovered the music of Ghedelia Tazartes a few weeks ago when I heard a copy of 'Voyage a l'ombre' on the label Demosaurus, which immediately made it to my Top Ten of Ninety-Seven. I usually don't go for music with voxes, but was sufficiently disturbed by the overwhelming scope of this man's musical ideas and vocal ability to start foraging in his back catalogue. I found one other, and now there's this CD which is a combinattion of works begun in 1997 and completed in 1997. Whether any of it has been released before is unclear, nor does it really matter because this is music which capably stands the test of time, no worries mate.
Saturation is such a tiring thing.
Instruments range from analog burps to pipes and gongs and stuff, often interjected by his voice, which is sped up, slowed down, reversed, dissected, digested and regurged and is never normal. I read somewhere that his voice is the voice of angels and demons, shamans and newborns - it's true. Chilled spines and resonant spire. Glowing skin which we're not always in. Dig it in your dug-out.
