Metaphormosis by Maria Warner (aka Michael Neil)

Inspired by Kafka's novella 'Metamorphosis' and the decline of the world's insect population.

...busy minimalist and rather complex sequencer sketches dominate the 22-minute “Circulation of Flies” contrary the vintage free-form textures making up the 27-minute (4-stars) “Requiem Insectum” . The latter is special to me, dwelling in the timeless atmospheric, a distant space where heavenly mellotron tapestries and strings of analogue pads reminiscent of classic Schulze and TD from the early and mid ‘70’s merge sophisticatedly. The reveal of a gentle shifting, profound emotive current is imminent as this great piece evolves. Bert Strolenberg - www.sonicimmersion.org
