2 stars I have to confess I had no big expectations about this album, I have heard a couple of Marius Birkeland Nielsen aka Breidablik's works and they were far of blowing my mind off but it was no surprise, the Progressive Electronic list in PA is full of Tangerine Dream and Klaus Schulze impersonators and some followers expect or think that's the way it should be.

Not me, I repel them like most of those same legends post 70s works, full of over used and abused formulas and overly sweet or Hollywood's action/drama cinema like melodic solutions which have lost any kind of essential identity and spark and are capable of disguising and/or justifying an otherwise unoriginal electronic musical language (even the effort of constructing a personal one or disgracing it, as it happened to those forerunner, permanently).

Well, Breidablik - The Wastelands EP (2015/2017) is not the kind of work for those, like me, who are eager for new Progressive Electronics and not the same old dish turned around and around and sold as new.

If you like TD's 80s works you are in for a thrill, if not just let it vanish in your memory it would not last that long anyway.
