CYCLOTIMIA "eschaton" cd

The unmistakably unique talent of forging emotional impact is the trademark of CYCLOTIMIA. Always operating on the edge between neoclassical arrangements and stripped methodical automation, Eschaton again challenges the approach of sculpturing music into vital images and reveals more contemporary strength than ever before. The impressive bandwidth of techniques presented here is stunning. Almost groove oriented (Market Report), sometimes beat-driven and danceable rhythm patterns (Meltdown) meet complex pieces of radical sampling and the concrete use of electronics (Norns II). The apocalyptic tenor of previous works now gives room to more subliminal nuances. A massive album that finds its musical climax in the crushingly epic Gloria. With the fast moving and thought provoking video Same Place, the CD contains an impression of the group’s audio-visual works for the first time.
