A musical serial. Episode 167: Waterforms
Music for Sleep’s long ambient piece Waterforms is given almost half an hour to work it’s quiet inducing beauty in this episode. Some sounds in this piece call the work of Pete Namlook to mind. He is featured posthumously with a work from 1998. Closer to the present year are Sergey Filatov and Joe Fujinoki, both their works released by th magnificent and often featured Pantheon label in 2018. Sensenta regular Günter Schlienz has the last word with the opening track from his 2019 album Know Your New Age, which -and this is saying a lot- may well be his best album to date.
