Considerado por muchos el mejor disco online del 2005, sonmi451 reedita algunos de los tracks de un CD publicado en u-cover llamado “Vladivostok” bajo el nombre de “the quiet EP”.
Como su nombre lo indica, se trata de música tranquila, envuelta en una especie de poesía auditiva llena de acordes menores, dub, ambient y voces manipuladas. Música instrumental que emociona y hace soñar. Una música como muchas otras, que a fuerza te muestra que tienes sentimientos y que vale la pena vivir si de escuchar este tipo de discos se trata.
*****
“It’s a delight to welcome Belgian artist Bernard Zwijzen, aka Sonmi451, a veteran of release of real-life labels such as U-Cover, to Monotonik with his rather divine 4-track release, ‘The Quiet EP’, which artfully blends ambience and melody in some delightfully beguiling ways.
The EP, which includes both tracks from Sonmi451′s super-limited edition U-Cover CDR ‘Vladivostok’, as well as new material, starts out with the title track from that CDR, which is ambient drift incarnate, before moving on to ‘Inner Structure’, which uses loops and an almost triphop aesthetic, with gently trilling voices and tinkling rustles spreading slowly all over the dial.
Things finish out with ‘Quiet Piece For Bram’, which swells and swells to awesome heights of rotating ambience, before ‘Dilating’ delves all the way into clickhouse, with some gorgeous percussion and chord rumbles – a fitting end to an excellent EP.”
