Year: 2006
Genre: New Age / Electronic / Berlin-School / Ambient
DESCRIPTION
==================
This is a concept album with an outline of the story in the sleeve notes. Dark drones rise and fall punctuated by twittery effects creating something of a stormy feel. 'The Warlock Returns' doesn't take long to really get going however as a superb sequence rumbles forth. The feeling now is full of optimism. As the underlying string pads swell there is even a sense of whimsy. Things take a much darker turn for 'Warlock meets the Young Princess'. Initially it's as if we are out at night, half heard noises hinting at something unpleasant, far too close. As with the previous track the sequence materialises near the beginning and if anything is even better than the opener, all rather brooding. The lead lines however shine like rays of light lifting the mood. Just before the sixth minute mark we get crashes of sound signalling a shift in the sequences. It's as if there is now a sudden urgency. I'm reminded of 'Optical Race' period Tangerine Dream.
A couple of minutes later the sequences seem to develop an added snarl as the mood darkens once more, only to gradually fade away leaving us with a feeling of loss. Warm tones get 'Myths and Legends as told by the Storyteller' underway. An optimistic questing sequence takes us forward, the lead lines echoing this sentiment. In the fifth minute things descend to soothing pads. A new sequence rises from the shifting waters. More pleasant melodic pulsations come to join it. We move on. I initially thought 'The Dream that came True' was referring to a nightmare as the sounds and effects brought up images of dungeons. A slow bass throb emphasised this feeling then in complete contrast those sunny lead lines come back making things now seem more like balmy summer afternoons!
'The Confrontation - Warlock versus the Wizard of the Dark' begins in the same wonderfully grim way as the previous track, leading to a melancholy section. A sequence is heard low in the mix as if we are marshalling all our strength. It slowly rises, developing all the time into a very mid seventies Tangerine Dream style rumbling bass romp. Ethereal pads add a little softness. This time the lead lines are more forceful- maybe battle has been engaged. The sequences become even more intense before reaching a peak in the twelfth minute and slowly subside into mournful pads- perhaps the aftermath of battle. New sequences emerge with a couple of minutes to go but they are thoughtful, reflective even, as we drift along almost to the track's conclusion on the back of a lovely moody melody. We finish with one final twist of nightmare.
'Ghosts Calling from Yonder' has a very faint melody almost completely smothered by breathy / windy effects. An optimistic tinkling sequence becomes the main feature. A deeper one joins it as do rhythms and we start to bounce along at a fair pace. The sequences have become even more strident by the seventh minute and mellotron arrives to back them. 'Warlock's Death' begins with the cry of some wolf like creature then a metallic sequence bounds forward along with a jaunty rhythm. Given the track title (the Warlock is the goody in this story) it provides a rather positive and uplifting conclusion to the album. (DL) David Law
