“Wanderer Of Time” could easily become a classic in the retro-scene. It has it all: haunting sequences, traditional sounds, great effects, nice rhythms and beautiful melodies. Tangerine Dream couldn’t have done it better in their big years. The epic title track, which opens the CD, already sets the standard for the rest of the album. The very melodically “Gaspra” is a composition Gert created for the double compilation-CD with is provided with the 27th issue of the English electronic music magazine “Sequences”. “Alien Matter” contains some of the best sequences on the album. “Elektra World” and “The Voyage Of Voyager 1” also have influences from Vangelis because of the fat solo’s from the Yamaha CS-synths (remember the harmonica-like solo sound in Vangelis’ “Ballad”?).
“Wanderer Of Time” is an album, which might place Gert Emmens on one of the top positions of retro-electronic music. Dutch treat.

Artist: Gert Emmens

Gert Emmens has the unique ability to mix the pure essence of the Berlin School with excellent melodies. In his music, there is almost no room for ultra-long intros and stretched sequencer lines. No, all of his tracks have a head and tail. This approach has put the Dutchman on the very top of electronic music and “When Darkness falls upon the Earth” proves this once again. This album is the best he has ever made.
The album starts in ”Rendezvous With 2004 MN4” with a great (short) ambient intro after which the sequences and rhythms fall in. Gert’s solos (amongst others -he uses a lot of “old” gear- the legendary Yamaha CS80-synth) are fat and fitting. What an opening. But there is more.
The title track and “Nostalgia” contain some of the best melodies Gert has ever composed.
“Casting Shadows On The Cold Ground”, quite Tangerine Dream-like, is maybe the best Berliner Schule-track he has come with so far. The sequences are masterful.
“The Morning After (extended version)” was initial a piece written for “Analogy”, an analog project that will be released soon.
The last track “Requiem Pour Sam” is a short melancholic track that was made especially for two fans of Gert because of the sad loss of their little boy Sam. With “When Darkness Falls Upon The Earth”, Gert delivers the best retro-EM has to offer nowadays. And the cover -by Pablo Magne- is again a treat.
