3 stars Once in a Lifetime is the second NEVER KNOWN album, recently re-issued on Afe Records (A. MARUTTI's own label). This album consists of dreamily-ritual excursions through ancient time and primordial elements. It starts with the two trancey-minimalism drones (A Waiting, Through the Gate), introducing us to liminal spaces. Day Two represents the beginning of a voyage through the origins and the primal-ontological foundations of life. It is made of expanded organic chords floating in deep distance. Almost without transition it directly carries on the completely sonic-black mental-scape with its strange metallic "doomy"-like echoes and high-pitch fantom-like frequencies. From dark austerity it passes to a beatific state of ravishement with the intimate and dreamy "On the Beach". This album is in the vein of the previous NEVER KNOWN, continuously beautiful with intensively mythical tellurian symbols.
