Awenson - Wizard
SKU
01-DR 8468
This is an album of spacey electronic music by a French synthesist that has nods to classic Klaus Schulze, but that manages to give the music it's own twist. Basically, you'd never think it was Schulze; it obviously isn't him, but if you love the classic era Klaus, you'll love this one.
"This French keyboards player was particularly influenced by Germany and the Berlin School. Hence it is no wonder if his second album "Wizard" (His debut was self-produced under the name of AWEN) reminds so much of the atmospheres created by TANGERINE DREAM or Klaus SCHULZE. It wouldn't be right to only see imitation there, and disregard the impact that the artist got from another one in the genre, namely Jean-Michel JARRE. AWENSON draws a really personal music from all this, and it should delight the connoisseurs. "Wizard" includes two long instrumental pieces with evocative titles, one of 41 minutes and the other clocking half an hour."
