Vishudha Kali - Unfinished Devastation Narrative

Unfinished Devastation Narrative by Vishudha Kali

4...according to our on Wed 15 Nov, 2006.

Also in are are a load of ambient CD's fresh from Russia. They're on Faria Records you know. They're by VISHUDHA KALI, EXHALOT, OOPHOI and ALIO DIE. They're all a much of a muchness to my ears and I'd be hard pushed to differentiate between them. They're packaged absolutely divinely in special little packs with loads of colourful postcards in. The music is ambience.... twinkly, floaty and drifty. I've heard a reasonable amount of ambient music over the years and this sounds like it's pretty good quality. Ie as good as anything else I've ever heard. If you're a fan of Pete Namlook and that kind of floaty drifty toss you'll bleedin' love these.

“Unfinished Devastation Narrative” is probably the most notable album in VK’s discography, of course if there are any unnotable. It is a very personal work and it’s the best recommendation for fans of the author. This album is not similar to his previous releases neither in style or sound. Listeners will find here a sort of cosmic-music, played on a physharmonica (portative organ), singing bowls, accordion, various handmade and analogue instruments, Sounds of nature, recorded in sacred places on uninhabited islands of Ladoga lake, where author has been meditating for a long time, have also been used in the album. The album includes: - 5 11-minute tracks of assembled acoustic ambient - new ways of playing various handmade instruments and natural sound sources - conceptually re-worked melodies, structures and streams, creating endless mystique moods and dreams - quality sound and professional mastering - a luxurious conceptual package art The pictures must be noticed individually. All of them are reprints of the author's drawings, reflecting his esoteric experiences. Each picture adds new sense and depth to the corresponding track. In this sense there are no analogues to this release. The album is very deep and extremely conceptual in every point, there is not a single accidental sound or design element. Limited edition of 689 copies, and this number also represents a deep conceptual idea. Number 6 symbolizes the beginning, 8 - the infinity and 9 - the ending. Every listener will enjoy the album, everybody will find something interesting in this release.
