Ebia - Space Explorer

Artist: Ebia
P: 2006
Splendid EM with a staggering space climate surrounded of heavy and powerful sequencers. A sidereal wind pushes a distress message whose transmission is muddled by the waves of a bad reception. The cracklings of the static voices cease and from this icy silence a sequence with circular and cold notes emerges. The caresses of the synth veils alleviate Star Voyager placid environment, whereas a second sequence, rounder and cordial, infiltrates on waves of percussions which break in sequence bearing; like Caesar In Camerun, a Clara Mondshine classic. Percussions and tablas launch Star Voyager rhythmic structure. A minimalist one that break in background, whereas the synth pushes long solos with beautiful harmonies stopped by hooking chorus. A synth which, on each lap, increases his tempo and intensity on superb layers which are coiled with tenderness and emotion, stifling almost all static parasites which are the only proofs of life.
Ebia’s Star Voyager is among beautiful album we discovered lately. A little master piece, full of rhythms, stunning sounds effects, amazing turn over on seizing synths. Jörg Bialinska reminds us of Gert Emmens with it’s dynamic and melodic EM, except Ebia is much more explosive. Blow by blow, he released 2 solids opus which mix harmony to complex musical structures.

What terrific value this CD offers: about 3 hours of beautiful, otherworldly and atmospheric music. This album focuses on ATB's more downtempo side providing a soothing yet uplifting experience for the listener. As usual the production is crystal clear and spacious sounding.
