With "Observer", the latest release from Magic Sound Fabric, Cameron
Akhunaton takes a dive inside the subconscious mind. His enlightening
sojourn bridges electronic, dub, alternative and ambient music with a
great deal of mysticism. Akhunaton uses tracks such as "Let it Go" and
"The World is an Illusion" to capture the spirit of release from
self-imposed boundaries.
Reviews:
Exploring the sounds of electronica in its purest, and perhaps most
pristine form, Magic Sound Fabric masterfully serves up the chilly and
evocative evidence of those explorations on Observer.
Proclaiming:
"There's no reality in duality" on the album's opener, "The World is An
Illusion" is a prelude of what is to come. Intimations of
science-fiction and sumptuous synth-laden grooves nurture the perfect
parallel between existentialist allusions and the obstinate beat-head.
"Heaven's Coming Down" is eerily beautiful and brilliantly organic
amidst the album's well-established digital disposition. Guitar-laced
"Only Love is Real" coalesce with fragments of head-nodding dub, while
"Majesty" and "Beautiful," Observer's instrumental tracks, hold their own - polished and glaringly dynamic.
Turning
futurism into an aural odyssey, Magic Sound Fabric eludes the
club-thumping culture of electronica, and brings intelligent life back
to the stereo. - http://www.eclectriciti.com/
