Transceive - Exit to Nowhere

SHREEVE influenced synth musician returns with more excellent instrumental electro-rock 10 years after his ‘Transformation’ CD blew us all away in 2006! Thankfully, ‘Exit To Nowhere’ brings about no real change in style and influences, with the strongest of these still being the classic Mark Shreeve solo years! There’s also more than enough in the way of exciting melody, rhythmic power and strong dynamics right across this 7-Track album to keep everyone happy, right from the “Berlin School” through to those who enjoy a stylish tune or two! This music is bombastic as well as melodic, delivering a powerhouse of soaring, high-flying synth melodies, huge massed choral passages, penetrating, pulsating sequencers and driving drum patterns …and that’s all just in the near 15-minute opening track alone … then after that there’s another 48 minutes of pure synthesizer drama and audio pyrotechnics to take in! You certainly won’t be snoozing off when ‘Exit To Nowhere’ is blasting from your speakers, that for sure! The man behind TRANSCEIVE is Steve Nelson, and he lists his musical influences as: Mark Shreeve, Jean Michel Jarre, Klaus Schulze and TANGERINE DREAM and you will indeed hear elements of then all melded together in the genuinely exciting music on ‘Exit To Nowhere’, an album which you should wholeheartedly enjoy if you are into the music of any of the above artists! ‘Exit To Nowhere’ was produced by: Steve Nelson & Dave Livingston.
