Stunning dark ambience, 15 Nov 2001
By LGwriter "SharpWitGuy" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Cymatic Scan (Audio CD)
Here, as in his other dark ambient masterpiece, Somnific Flux, Bill Laswell has a collaborator. But this time it's the Japanese electronica master, Tetsu Inoue. It's a single hour-long track, Monochrome Existence, that takes you down deeper than you would have thought possible, deep into that place where only silence is deeper.Dark ambient is the genre of music you listen to for purely emotional reasons. That's true of most music, but here the emotions are infinitely more subtle--preceding anger, despair, ecstasy. Dark ambient exists to remind you that all of us have levels that can be reached, if we let ourselves reach them. Just sit back, relax, and move with the music, down, down, down--past the bottom of the well...
Cymatic Scan will take you where you want to go...and beyond...

An Underrated Gem in the Field of Ambient Music, 9 May 2011
By L. Wafflestein "The Music Collector" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Cymatic Scan (Audio CD)
Although the album is split into six separate tracks, Cymatic Scan is really one long piece of music with slow, subtle changes that give it an organic flow. As is the case with most long-form ambient music, this hour long piece was made for front-to-back listening. Cymatic Scan can easily immerse you if you let it. When it does, it becomes surreal, calming, and intriguing all at the same time -- a perfect soundtrack for those late nights spent alone or that rainy day where the only thing you're inspired to do is either curl up in bed or read a book. Its dark and ominous, but far more relaxed than many of Lustmord's grotesque creations.

BRILLIANT / VISIONARY & STUNNING..., 7 Feb 2003
By W. Wilkerson "Dog Boy" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Cymatic Scan (Audio CD)
Should you favor ambient without wanting to risk nodding off, this is one to add to your collection.Sonically solid and full of the variable textures that make Mr. Laswell the famous musician he is as well as the creative sculptures offered by Tetsu's innovative background.
I'm sold.
