DESCRIPTION

http://www.synthmusicdirect.com/ptnorth.cfm
A moody but beautifully melodic sequence provides a first class start to the opening title track. Lead stabs add to the enjoyment still further then a rhythm mixes with the morphing sequence awesomely. Things are given an even further kick. My hands and feet just can't keep still. This is soooo good! Soft pads and piano detail get 'Maltrine' underway. A plucked string sequence takes over acting like a lead line in its own right before another synth line combines with it completing a blissful melody. The pace starts to quicken and the excitement level increases. Just close your eyes and let the beauty of it caress your mind as the power elements get your pulse to race. It's one of those albums where I am in danger of running out of superlatives way too early. If anything this track is even better than the opener.
A bass sequence surges forward as 'Illuminated Area' powers up. Then in comes the lead line. And what a lead line! It is just impossible not to try and play air keyboard to it. The sequence becomes even more dramatic as things are taken to euphoric proportions. I know many will think I am getting carried away here but this is as good as anything Tangerine Dream did during the early 80s and if it had been sent to me by Mr Arcane himself I would have thought he had just sent me one of his very best tracks. Unbelievably 'The North Nodding Synth' keeps up the quality. Just where do these amazing sequences and melodies come from? Oh my God what a lead line! Think Schmoelling era TD at its most sublime. 'First Legion' has some nice stereo effects, the pulsations bouncing from speaker to speaker. A lead line darts between the notes agilely whilst a second then a third sequence strike up along with a subtle rhythm. More lead flourishes take the track to even greater heights. Each element is beefed up to amazing proportions- music as pure energy arcing through the air. Then all of a sudden just after the halfway mark tranquil pads still the racing heart for a gorgeous interlude. The sequences are still there but gentler than before.
This calmer feeling transfers through to 'Visual Contact'. This is quite a percussive track with real quirkiness. The melodies however are just as stunning . I am reminded of solo Schmoelling from the 'Wuivend Riet' period or even one of the numbers from the first half of his latest album 'Instant City'. Appropriately deep drones and ominous effects get 'Deep Darkness' underway. Lightness breaks through in the second minute however in the form of an acoustic guitar type sequence. Excellent lead synth stabs come to join it, combining together to form yet another terrific melody. 'Port of Anchorage' has a rather Eastern sounding beginning before developing into a happy jaunty track which wouldn't have been out of place on 'Le Parc'.
'Digital Dreams' begins with all manner of windy sounds and whooshing effects. Indeed it is rather apocalyptic. A slow mournful sequence starts up backed by moody pads. A brooding rhythm slowly starts to form. All the different elements gradually become more intense then subside again in the third minute to slowly reform but in a rather edgy manner. A couple of months ago I raved about 'Timecode' but I was stocking this album before that one. I should have really reviewed it first but such was the 'buzz' around Uwe that I had sold out before I could write anything about it. Indeed I can see this being a constant problem. This will just sell and sell. It is likely to be one of my biggest albums of the year (2006). If you liked 'Timecode' or indeed just the highest quality melodic sequencer music you really must get this! (DL)
