Steve Dinsdale - New Church (2009)

A sense of cathedral reverence dominates much of this release, but that veneration soon gives way to more stellar expressions of speculation.

Heavenly keyboards establish a divine panorama, generating a luminous firmament that is swiftly populated by dreamy riffs of a very vaporous character. Church organs enter the flow, enhancing the overall divinity. The appearance of grinding mechanical elements grounds things with industrial hints.

Denser keyboards generate a psychedelic flavor that is punctuated by languid beats and eerie effects. The melody adopts a pensive demeanor, as if brooding over lost epiphanies. An airy vista is reached wherein solitary beats establish an imminent nobility in which electronics exchange mammoth sighs leading to glittering tones of inspirational definition.

The stage is now set for an emotional escalation. Contemplation perches on a vertiginous edge, surveying a realm of seething potential. Moody steel drums emerge from ponderous rhythms, generating a sense of expectancy, while stratospheric keyboards goad everything to dizzying heights. From this elevated vantage, haunting textures generate a spooky mien as the music brushed against the underside of heaven.

The keyboards adopt a more piercing resonance as the upward ascension continues, breaking through the ozone layer and entering interplanetary space. Expansion ensues, and more dire tonalities enter the mix, evoking masterful demands for states of being beyond hope.

Ultimately, a realm of true infinity is accomplished with regal keyboards supported by rich textures of glistening charm.

These compositions embody a voyage that begins in traditional theological terrain and evolves into more comprehensive doctrines that unify wonder with modern sensibilities. The listener provides a human perspective as celestial marvels are explored and states of divinity are shorn of all mysticism, ultimately reaching a level where true immortality is revealed to be cognitive creativity. /Matt Howarth - Soniccuriosity/
