| september 2011 release ; endlessly delayed, now finally available :: jd emmanuel’s best 80’s tape, re-mastered and issued on vinyl as a co-release between his own north star productions & pieter eykens’ apropos aguirre ...
... originally issued in 1986 (under the name “daniel emmanuel”) this largely eschews the straight riley-lineage “time-lag-isms” of “wizards”, instead working a rhythmic approach (anchored by killer stereo-field drum-machine thump & pulsing ostinatos) that incorporates channel-hopping live-played portamento-heavy synth filigree rendered in perfect stacked fifths over burbling lfo’ed “accompaniment” that enables one to reach their zenith in a far more enjoyable way than any number of mid-80’s pina chestnuts ...
... if meditating to the “terminator” soundtrack sounds like a perfectly sensible way to pass the time, then you may have just found your new favorite record (it’s in my top 20, for sure) ; highly recommended !!! |

zorn14 jd emmanuel - ancient minimal meditations lp
re-issue of the amm tape recorded between 1981 and 1985 by jd emmanuel, a new age composer who has received a lot of praise from people like lieven martens, wolf eyes.
