Alien Nature´s and Stan Dart´s first cooperation shows their talent of evolving each unique style of Electronic Space Rock (Alien Nature) and Cinematic Electronic Chill Art (Stan Dart) to a new genre of powerful melodic Electronic Rock, that is full of rhythm, bass and melody. Kind of electronic IDM, put the VOLUME UP!!!

Torsten M Abel's and Wolfgang 'Alien Nature' Barkowski recorded the album 'Medusa' by 'Alien Nature + TMA
The perfect distillation of the classic Teutonic Electronic sound. The tracks begin with waves of synthetics unfolding, sequencer slowly filtering into the mix, and then long, undulating multi-layers of synthetic sound mutating from one cosmic, symphonic theme into the next.
A cerebral listening trip extraordinaire.

This release is the perfect blend of the long Klaus Schulze tracks and old vintage synths gear. Waves of synthetics unfolding, sequencer slowly filtering into the mix, and then long, undulating multi-layers of synthetic sound mutating from one cosmic, symphonic, sequencer theme into the next. EM at the finest.

The theme of 'Massive', the musically successor of 'Contruction', are machines used in the heavy industry - rusty and oily. The perfect distillation of the classic Teutonic Electronic sound. The tracks begin with waves of synthetics unfolding, sequencer slowly filtering into the mix, and then long, undulating multi-layers of synthetic sound mutating from one cosmic, symphonic theme into the next. A cerebral listening trip extraordinaire.

Is this still classical electronic music? Or is it already progressive rock? Anyway, Alien Nature always had a tendency to cover both, but this time its his closest approach to progressive rock so far. Lots of guitar riffs, heavy beats and rhythmic melodies in a battle between synthesizer, percussion and guitar.

The 6. album from the artist Wolfgang Barkowski aka ALIEN NATURE follows its Alter Ego and developes a scenario in the deep space. A rythmic and pushing album, following the familiar sound of Alien Nature as is known from former albums.
"Who Goes There?" is a kind of reminiscence about Space Art. Each single track refers to book titles from Science Fiction authors. The title track "Who Goes There?" is an original title of the novella that was taken as the base for the movie "The Thing" (1951 Christian Nyby and 1982 John Carpenter).
The single tracks are food for thoughts about space ships, robots and space stations as well as stories about Science Fiction in common.

Even though there are eight index points this is really one track split into parts with each part running seamlessly from one to the next. Unlike their first album this one is a Berlin School fest right from the opening second.
An excellent atmospheric intro leads straight into the initial sequence which builds wonderfully to become a bass laden rumbling stormer. Massed choral pads increase the intensity to almost apocalyptic proportions. In the fifteenth minute the sequences depart and we enter water dripping subterranean realms. A fresh slow sequence emerges like some throbbing transformer which gradually becomes faster and increasingly complex as more lines of pulsations come to join it working up to quite an awe inspiring frenzy.
The Second Part is a short interlude of windy effects and electronic bleeps.
The Third begins with rainy effects then a locomotive chugging sequence followed by yet another sequence- quite awesome it is too- incredibly powerful in a rather Redshift sort of way. It constantly shifts its position within the mix as it rises and falls in intensity but when it is at its peak I wanted to punch the air with excitement.
The Fourth Part is much darker with ominous organ sounds creating quite an eerie atmos.
Mellotron and more stormy effects get the Fifth Part underway. More tron is introduced- this time of the celestial choir variety. We finish with the sound of what could be a spaceship coming down to Earth.
Part Six initially continues in this same vein before restrained sequences return. Indeed this is quite a subtle hypnotic track.
We return to atmospherics for the rather short Part Seven. It’s all rather dark and gloopy with some strange effects, a little like half heard chatter deep in the mix. Looped percussion, almost like a hammer on an anvil provides a curious focus.
The Final Part finishes the album off in style as yet another excellent sequence surges forward then more lines of pulsations fall into formation (some of them quite melodic) as things build and build until the fourth minute when the intensity subsides a little to allow for a regrouping then rejuvenated sequences and rhythms make one final wonderful surge.
A highly recommended album.

Swinging Amplitudes is the 6th album by REALTIME. Thomas Bock presents multifaceted EM compositions documenting his love with electronic music. With this, as well pure, sequenced tracks in the spirit of „Berlin School“ were created as well as spheric and epic tracks like from outer space. The result is an diversified and ambitious album.
Another highlight is the cooperation with Wolfgang Barkowski aka Alien Nature at the track „Psychedelic Emotions“. His synth-solo was a spontaneous and improvised contribution showing his human emotions about electronic music. As well the mastering of this track was done by Barkowski.
