This album presents a new style in Ron's music; a little less accessible this time but still his typical soundscapes and outstanding sequencers capture this great feeling that made his music stand out years ago. This CD focuses on Ron's reputation as a major talent. He has been slowly carving out a niche as one of Europe's strongest proponent's of "sequenced minimalism." These adjectives seem to be diametrical if not downright mutually exclusive. Ron makes the concept work by softening his sequences and surrounding them with the gentle and playful minimalism for which he has gained some renown. While Alio Die and Vidna Obmana are still Europe's leading minimalists, Ron is certainly among the top European proponents of pastoral ambience!
This album is an essential example of optimistic minimalism from the Netherlands.
