What we say

Rating: ecstatic This record left our Ant feeling ecstatic.

MONOSTATION go for a double whammy straight to the cerebral cortex with Alchemy Numbers 8 and 9 both released at the same time. Readers of these pages will no doubt be fully aware of my fondness for this series. 'Magnesium' (Number 8) is a slightly claustrophobic track with frequencies that at times seem unpleasant resonating in you're head. One of the noisier pieces in the series but as always the beauty lurks beneath .'Cling' momentarily eases the pressure but the intensity and atmosphere increases. Ambient drone at it's most powerful. Tremendous stuff. 'Potassium' (number 8) is a profoundly moving work, simultaneously heart wrenching and hypnotic. A truly magical sounding track that evokes the same kind of emotion as John Foxx and Harold Budd's 'Translucence' LP. Only one more to go. I'm curious as to what these guys have in store for us next.........On Limit Switch as always.

What the label says:

monostation proudly announce the 8thand 9th release in the alchemy series. available as usual from smallfish records, norman records, piccadilly records, and other selected outlets. We have decided to release 2 together to speed up the completion of the project to enable us to put foward our planned official debut lp (more details of this coming soon). The collection of four tracks over the 2 releases draw from avant classical - new american pyschedelia - minimalism - drone. Influences Cage, JOMF, JAMC, Johan Johanson, Jefre Cantu to name but a few.
