DESCRIPTION
==================
Well, David meant to keep this to review for himself, but I'm awfully glad he accidentally mailed his pre-release copy to me with some other discs, because it is fantastic! I enjoyed their 'Ocean Drive' CD, but this is an even stronger release. Things start in fine form with 'Gruga Park,' a typical slugfest of sequencers galore with wonderful synth lead lines. I also really like the percussion which, along with the sequencers, really moves things along extremely well. There is energy aplenty here. After a great first movement for the first nine minutes, a totally separate, and equally good sequence, finishes off the last third of the track. Beautiful, clean choirs herald this last passage, along with sweeping majestic electronics. Then a classic Berlin school bass pulse propels exquisite sequencers and some cool astronaut-like vocal samples. This is just brilliant, it gives me chills every time, very powerful electronic music. An absolute grabber of a track, I can't say enough about it.
'Dreams' is more like prior Pyramid Peak material, lighter in tone. This one doesn't do a lot for me at the beginning, but strong sequencing rescues it partway through, including a great finish in the last minute where a stellar sequence is allowed to solo until the end. Two more strong, classic Teutonic tracks finish things off. In short, a great CD. Berlin school fans will not be disappointed. (PD)
Above was a review by Phil Derby of the original release of 'Random Events'. This re-issue also has a bonus track however, in the form of a live version of the title track. It is even more exciting than the studio version. It is faster, has added oomph and is just a bit longer. (DL) David Law
