THN005 >> RKTIC - NORTHERN LIGHTS LP
[14.09.2001 | Cold and spacey minimalistics]

Our fifth release comes from Rktic, the latest project of rp
(for those who don't know him, he has released a few EP's together
with Stereo Jack on Uptide, a project with numerous releases on
Superstition records, also running the Netlabel Rohformat
[former Schleudertrauma], part of the demogroup Farb-Rausch...
expect a new 12" these days on another famous german techno label).
His tracks are a little bit like a mixture of basic channel,
monolake and cologne tracks but still provide their own style.
The release is compliant with any CD burner and impacts the best
way listened at complete darkness. To make sure you don't loose
your fine CD we recommend to download and print the covers for
your brandnew cd. In Addition to that you may choose a desktop
background picture for a resolution of your taste.  The 70 minute
journey begins with the short intro "Geiger Radio". There isn't
much to say about it so we begin with the track "Spaces In Spaces".
Chilly pads, weird sounds makes this a lovely soundscape, drums
are added gradually and makes this 15╜ minute long track a nice
and soft journey. Very impressing! Next track is "Riding The Pipeline"
that begins with reverbed industry noises, bassdrum and some bass.
More drums are added gradually and the delayed "stabs" is excellent.
It feels like you are standing at the tundra near a factory and
listening to the track. The fourth track, "the Opposite of" begins
with a sneaking bassline that becomes stronger and stronger, fx
builds upp the feeling of the track and after some time the bassdrum
and other drums arrives. The bassline continues to filters up and
down. Another great track! The next track, all 14 minutes of it,
"A walk on deep snow", is a journey with beautiful pad, lovely
bassounds and lovely delayed fx. Its definatly one of the best
tracks i've heard in a long time! It's hard to describe how it
sounds but its overwhelming good. The sixth and the last track is
also the longest. 20 minutes and 42 seconds long! The track is
called "Evolving North" and its recorded live! It contains clicks,
pads, drums, fx. Pretty hard to describe the track but its fits
very good into this album! The whole album has everything you want...
clicky stuff, spacy stuff, cold stuff, chilly stuff... The title
of the album really fits, this is really the "Northern Lights".
