PROG REVIEWER

EMERALDS is a USA electronic music trio conformed by John Elliott, Mark McGuire and Steve Hauschildt.

The Overlook (2009), digs in back in time and shape to paint along the lines a retro picture of The Berlin School�s mid 70s sequencers electronic music mode with some Krautrock splashes.

If anything its simplicity adds up bonuses by not trying to make a big fuzz, overexploit or appropiate what is not theirs, Emeralds indulge in these fields without any further pretentions but to taste the waters and bring in some personal flavors of their own along the way.

To set its coordinates in the Progressive Electronic music map, it stands close to Klaus Schulze�s , in that before mentioned period in time, works, but, as I also wrote, their personal imprint is felt along the way.

It heralds better releases to come.
