Sunya Beat - Comin' Soon

Artist: Sunya Beat
P: 2006 
This CD from 2006 features 77 minutes of dynamic electronic music culled
from live performances from 2001 through 2003 at Burg Herzberg Festival,
Ricochet Gathering Poland, and E-live Eindhoven.
Sunya Beat is: Axel Manrico Heilhecker on guitar and loops, Harold
Grosskopf on drums, and Steve Baltes on keyboards and loops. Grosskopf
and Baltes have both played extensively with Manuel Gottsching in Ashra.
Energy runs very high in this music, with its pounding velocity and rollicking
delivery. The band is tight, and the tuneage is ecstatic in scope.
The guitar is hyperactive and acrobatic, generating riffs of blinding intensity
and sequences of shimmering delicacy. Nimble-fingers achieve chords of
engaging complexity that cavort with serpentine agility. Shrill passages
achieve an astral quality, while at other times the riffs attain an elated rock-
out demeanor that is breathtaking.
The percussion is masterful, bursting with sultry rhythms of cosmic rapture.
Beats explode with dynamic disposition, accomplishing tempos of
mesmerizing appeal. Besides providing propulsion for the tunes, the
rhythms become a living force that seeps into the subconscious and
imprints itself on the audience's genetic code, leaving a glorious lasting
impression.
The keyboards establish lavish tapestries of ethereal substance, then
pepper the mix with melodious sweeps of endearing character. Dreamy
passages are created with ease, streaming like honey and bonding the
music's aspects into a surging fluidity. The electronics are sinuous and
sneaky, lurking between notes like a supernatural force.
These compositions display acute perfection, exuding a demonstrative
entertainment factor that is superbly infectious. The elegant fusion of trance
and high energy is wondrous to behold.
One of the CD's most delightful tracks is "Bond's Off" in which the band
toys and twists with the James Bond theme, producing a dazzlingly snappy
version full of captivating beats and bewitching guitar licks.

Sultry electronics, agile percussion, and searing guitar combine to create luscious music that is as capable of transfixing as it is of energizing the listener.

Utilizing versatile sounds, the electronics provide a steadfast degree of charm with bewitching textures and more demonstrative riffs.
The percussion is topnotch; no surprise considering Grosskopf’s legendary status earned from his work with Klaus Schulze and Manuel Göttsching’s band Ashra during the heyday of German electronic recordings.
