5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant retro style sequencing!, 16 Oct 2007
By Jon Kirkman - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Ian Boddy & Mark Shreeve have been at the centre of the UK Electronic Music scene since the late seventies and have known each other since they both appeared at the very first UK Electronica festival in 1983. They've both enjoyed considerable success in releasing a succession of solo albums. However it wasn't until 1998 that they first collaborated under the ARC banner for their first CD release, "Octane". Then in 1999 Boddy set up the ambient electronica label DiN that has achieved considerable success in releasing CD's by artists such as Robert Rich, Tetsu Inoue, Markus Reuter, Chris Carter, Surface 10, RMI & of course Ian Boddy.

"Fracture" is ARC's fifth album release and their fourth on the DiN label. It features their fabled retro style sequencing, courtesy of Shreeve's giant Moog modular system, coupled with a heady mix of quirky melodic lines and spacy atmospheres. The album is wholly instrumental and the first four tracks constantly morph and evolve with a set of chilled out grooves and sublime melodic themes. The fifth track, "Rapture", is an epic in every sense. Nearly 23 minutes in length it features a central, pounding sequencer riff section cocooned within truly awe inspiring deep space ambiences for a truly memorable track.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sequencer music with real substance and authority, 20 Mar 2008
By R. Hallett "ambienthighway" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I do find all the releases since 1998 by the two individuals concerned [Ian Boddy & Mark Shreeve ]rewarding interesting and challenging. This is another to add to the output that will neither displease or exceed your expectations. Perhaps we have been worn down by time and output of some great electronic music to expect too much. In isolation of other electronis music titles this is a substantial and rewarding CD.
For me the problem with this release is the clinical efficient execution of this music. Its not spontaneuos and a foot is not set wrong in the playing of the sequencer patterns and ambient background. If you like this sort of music, its really best to get everything since 1998 by Boddy and Shreeve [Arc & Redshift] to get a complete picture. Great sequences and ambient backdrops in the music, nicely recorded. Recommended
