5.0 out of 5 stars
A stunning album,
This review is from: THE BLUE NOTEBOOKS (Audio CD)
I can't recommend this album highly enough. The 4th track, Shadow Journal, is possibly one of the most beautiful pieces of music I've ever heard. Difficult to define or put into a category but I'll make a stab at it by calling it a mixture of classical, electronica and ambient/chill out. Simply stunning. £12 very well spent..

This review is from: THE BLUE NOTEBOOKS (Audio CD)
Like Memoryhouse, Max Richter's sadly deleted first CD, this album is suffused with a forlorn melancholia. The quotes from Franz Kafka (beautifully read by Tilda Swinton), compound the feeling that this is a nostalgic homage to the lost world of East European cultures that were shattered by Stalinist purges and Nazi pogroms. The standout track, 'The Shadow Journal', is impossibly beautiful, distilling the album's sense of loss into an achingly sad refrain for violin and, suprisingly, a jay!
Small but perfectly formed.

Excellent, innovative piece of work,

This review is from: BLUE NOTEBOOKS DMM V [VINYL] (Vinyl)
I bought this on Vinyl having already purchased it on CD. You can hear snippets of the tracks from various websites (Y@@@ube etc) though i'd guess if you're reading this review you know what to expect. Modern day composing using technology and tradition, this album offers the lot.. delicated chamber pieces to futuristic pieces. It is very relaxing and therapeutic and I would wholeheartedy recommend this guy's work to anyone.
