4 stars If you are familiar with Tangerine Dream's typical sound developed during the "Phaedra", "Rubycon" period you will be very enthusiastic by this second Edgar Froese's solo album. The electronic / synth explorations are also clearly similar to "Aqua". This record announces the colour with concrete sounds taken from ambient samples of monkeys. "Concrete" experiences were also delivered on the previous "Aqua" with aquatic, airplane sounds. Next to this brief and original introduction we fall into a hypnotic and contemplative electronic adventure, dominated by Mellotron parts, sometimes experimenting acoustic elements as the flute (already used in the sad, melancholic TD's track "sequent C")." Rubycon" & "Ricochet" fans will enjoy all the old analog synth melodic parts accompanied by heavy / rhythmic electronic arpeggios. Froese's best effort in solo, a landmark and a memorable album of experimental / electronic prog music.
