THN055 >> SELFFISH - ENA
[18.04.2004 | THOUGHTFUL AMBIENT LOUNGE DUB FOLLOW-UP]

Andrew Eigus aka Selffish is the protagonist of the Thinner
guild of electronic music producers who concern themselves with
an Ambient/Lounge approach.

After his 2002 Thinner impact “Enas”, Thinner is  delighted to
release Selffish’s new album - “Ena”, that took about 2 years of
production time. But the long time waiting for “Ena” has been
worth it. Eigus unfolds a masterpiece of magnificent songs with
a wonderful romantic electronic feel to enchant everyone who is
listening while provoking a permanent state of trance.

“Ena” provides a musical tension that rises constantly throughout
the whole release. Bubbling basslines, haunting keys and swirling
strings set the mood that can't fail to get under your skin and
is sure to appeal to the discerning Ambient and lounge circles.

Starting with the rather dramatic “Bare Poles” and it’s cold polar
pads and distant flickering stabs, it takes a while until Selffish
appears with an appealing bassline, for setting the right mood to
enjoy his sonic world. “Se Ipsum Tantum Amare” hails from the
distance, but the marching bassdrum approachs the listener right
from the front, shuffling. With “Jet-Legger”, Selffish creates an
igloo full of ethereal and mindcleaning sounds around a twirl, that
is carried by very slow relaced beats and finally has a surprising
and smooth transition at the later part of the song. “The Film” is
more grounded opposed to the first three tracks and leaves the
ambient pads for it works more with subtle heartbeat sounds and
constant hi hats. “Stronger Than Me” opens the midnight part in
“Ena” – turning on the pace, building up slowly the Selffish-
typical intelligent Lounge/Dub beats to a very intense emotional,
mental figure with this oh-so-bittersweet melody hook in between.
“Nighttime” catches on with urbanity, very subtle figures and
so-much-going-on in the background, perfectly preparing for the
“Why” ride … rotating stabs and tunnel pads fade in and out.
“Prism” - is a quite complex and intelligent shifting diamond
that rotates in shine, while “Lo-Fi Funk 67” is more of the
reflexive and chilling dawn of the day, for when it’s getting
watery with “Elusive” and Selffish departing with “Uli” … until
the next shadows of him will come across the Thinner sunset.
