| finally in stock !!! cd version (lp on marriage) of this serious grower; one of the most-listened-to albums around the mms offices here for the past few months & one of my contenders for album-of-the-year...
the second album by adam forkner’s white rainbow, following the heels of his epic “white rainbow box” ... listen to the sound sample (to your left) - this is just the sort of summer-fades-into-autumn armchair ethno drone-psych that i can get behind; entirely spaced-out & always joyous washes of upper-register guitar scrabble & synth ostinato... with those darbukas & casio beeps all but buried in the mix...
really great stuff; highly recommended. |
| | artist: white rainbow
title: prism of eternal now
catalog #: krank110
formats available: cd
release date: october 01, 2007
after years of outer space exploration in yume bitsu and surface of eceyon, as well as stints as a hired gun for a multitude of artists including dirty projectors, jackie-o motherfucker and devendra banhart, adam forkner decided to turn his focus inward and began to record solo material. and focus he did, working at a dizzying pace that culminated in the production of the 5cd/1dvd white rainbow box (2006 marriage records). the remarkable thing about that album was not that it was 4.5 hours long, but that the overwhelming majority of it was of extraordinary quality and not mere filler.
with the release of ...eternal now, white rainbow has surpassed typical solo project territory and is now a virtual elemental force. at a somewhat brief 71 minutes, his kranky debut pulses and flows with mantric chants, clattering percussions, sighing sustains and guitar leads unashamed of their scorching transcendence. he breathes new life into archaic sub-genres such as progrock, new age, and hippie folk incantations, while never stooping to the negative aspects of any of them, and at the same time remaining a step ahead of the technologically crippled and virtuoso-less looper pedal scene. prism of eternal now leaves behind the bounds of gravity for a free floating meditational headtrip of inner space exploration. |
