Four ancient albums have been completely remixed and remastered, and can be considered as new releases as the music is also transformed, especially "Out of the City". They also have new cover arts. This is electronic music with very strong jazz influences. Life - Unfolding has already been reviewed on Progarchives : (four stars, two reviews) : "`Life - Unfolding' couldn't be a more appropriate title for this album, as much of the music slowly unwinds with long ethereal stretches, and it's one of Yves' more satisfying and substantial releases due to a stronger element of slightly darker, droning, more mysterious qualities, giving it a depth that is sometimes absent from his work. It's also quite comparable to ambient artists like Steve Roach, although Yves does have a recognizable sound all his own. A mix of cosmic and earthy atmospheres, why not find an unhurried time and place to listen quietly and enjoy this immersive evocative music?" "Light of Lost Summers" offers four different tracks, from Berlin School sequencing with jazzy soprano-sax like synth soloing (Breathes) to distorted guitar chorus over tablas and electonics (Caves), dialogs between Harp and Koto over oriental percussions while Water Drops make the pulse, and much more for imaginary journeys and dreams. This album is the most jazzy of this set and should be of more interest to the readers of jazzmusicarchives. "Elsewhere" is a set of three long ambient / jazzy tracks emerging from the mist, with instruments from many places of the world : Gamelan Cymbals, Tibetan Horns, Water Drums, Koto, Electronics, Wooden and Metallic Percussions, many Synths, many Udu and Guitars. The track Elsewhere is the longest of the discography (25'). The album "Elsewhere" was already reviewed on Progarchives : "Out of the City" is a musical journey beyond stress, exhaustion and solitude in search of serenity and fullness : the ambient music of this album depicts these shifts to another world, a new life and deeper feelings through six tracks traveling from dark ambient to light, beyond an uncommon rock opening. These albums are available for free listening on the web site, but also on Bandcamp and major commercial platforms (Spotify, iTunes, Amazon, etc...). They were remixed by the author and remastered by Emmanuel de Saint Méen (delusion squared). Stay tuned, and good hearing ! |
