TIMEWIND

As a first-time listener of progressive electronic music (never really cared for synthetic tunage), this was a lot to take in. 'Timewind' is a pretty solid album, despite the fact that I don't like the genre. There's a lot in this record to love: the album cover art, the ambiance, the subtle strings in the background throughout both songs, and most of all, the minute details; those quivering keyboard fadeouts, the occasional keyboard high note, it is all surprisingly beautiful to me. The wind in slow interludes is subtle but amazing. But this album is not all highlights. I had some prosthetic bones to pick with this album. One of which is the insane length of both songs. Until I listened to this album I had no idea you could smash a whole thirty minutes into Side A. And I am typically unfaltering when it comes to sidelong tracks, but this is insane. And when the song has little to no structure, it's a bit too monotonous. 'Bayreuth Return' felt a little too slow to me. It had a similar soundscape for most of the track. 'Wahnfried 1883', though, is really the better song on this album. It has a more interesting feel to it. There are many more sounds and a more diverse atmosphere. Anyways, I would recommend this album to any fan of Klaus Schulze or the progressive electronic sub-genre. If new to either, I would not. But, I had a fun experience listening to it. You might too.
