Using the Absynth software program recorded and mixed in real time, Jamie has made a beautifully textured long form piece filled with subtle charms and deep, murky spaces. Constantly evolving and shifting, moving in an almost organic way, "Synthphonics 1" is a wonderful disc to explore and a must for any fans of the dark ambient genre. rik maclean - rik@pingthings.com http://www.pingthings.com = ambient + electronic + chill things Send an e-mail to pingthings-subscribe@yahoogroups.com for updates on *all* the latest releases on sale at ping things . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
