PETER ANDERSSON

Music for films and exhibition is the first full lenght solo album by Peter Andersson. For beginners, we must remind that Andersson figures as the great precursor of the forest-dark ambient music genre. The spacious droning darkness of his respective projects (Atomine Elektrine, Raison d'être) prefigures the rising of a particular nordic-ambient scene (Sephiroth, Beyond sensory experience...) largely impregnated by archaic dreams, paganism and mystical aesthetism. Globally this new release is less claustrophobic-lugubrious than the previous releases, it's more mellow but equally wonderfull. Music for films and exhibition is an intensive cinematic and religious experience. Inner images clearly emerge from the listen. The Tulpa parts give you the feeling of floating sensations. Tulpa part III (The Meadow Dream) is a heartbreaking elegiac piece, a magic fly to heaven. Some pieces contain obvious references to concrete music (Tulpa part II...) to kosmische space age (Virtual body) and to martial percussive ambient art (The rim...). Music for films and exhibition is the missing link between Lustmord and Brian Eno's organic electronica. A recommended introduction to the pluri dimensional dark ambient musical universe.
