Album Notes & Community Reviews
Heavily influenced by Eastern spiritualism and classical Indian raga structures, the German composer delivered a profound exploration of acoustic trance and repetitive piano phrasing. 'Transition' relies on cascading, highly hypnotic minimalist patterns that slowly evolve over extended, meditative compositions. The deeply tranquil, incredibly spacious recording stands as a highly respected, deeply immersive achievement in the realm of modern post-minimalism.
