3 stars I entered this release with a biased prejudice to find out, as usual, that it is not that healthy to do so.

Anyway, without any twist or turns, this Robert Henke's "Atom/Document", 2008, is far from being trash, if anything, it is uneven.

A performace combining sound and vision and as any soundtrack release, one has come to terms with this limitation of half the picture. In this trying to approach different styles, maybe due to the unseen, as such, visuals in fact some sections are not that good.

Pros-

What works out, works out great, to the point of bringing imaginary and personal visuals derived of the music, thus it in fact has a very depictive sonic nature. The music composition in general is intelligent and as such attractive. I did enjoy its changing electronic moods and its melancholic piano sections.

Cons-

The electronic dance/trance like moments are very weak and in this flaw rests for me the real deal breaker of this release. What could have turned out as a great breaking point, like a Robert Henke's REAL "hard core/dance/trance/meditations", stays quiet short of doing so.

Besides that everything is quiet fine.

***3.5 PA stars.
