Recreation 8 tracks Running time: 1:02:28 Released: 01/2007 |
Review 1: René van der Wouden’s "Recreation" comes from a studio session held in the spring of 2004, a little before Pro Sequentia. Completely in conformity with its title, Recreation looks to me like a light album. The Dutch synthesist seems to have fun by mixing the styles and the areas. From austere he can jump to frivolity, and vice versa, giving a coloured album, without borders and framings, a little as the kids who have fun in recreations.

Pro Sequentia 5 tracks Running time: 1:07:26 Released: 05/2005 |
Sweeping and majestic, Prosa 1 starts this synthesizer fest in grand style. Soaring pads and effects ring out. Then a moderately paced sequencer loop arrives, followed shortly by a full-on rhythm section that picks up the pace. The lead synth is a tad on the cute side, but the bright upbeat nature of it is enjoyable. Airy synths draw the track to a close. Prosa 2 takes time to develop, starting with a cool lengthy space music intro, including some nice chords and reverberating bell tones.
