A slow ambient track from 2000. Joni (who was now a permanent addition to the line up, from the autumn of the year 2000 onwards) had a great sampler, Kurzweil 2500R, and he was much into sampling and soundscapes. It gave us a great boost in the more textural work and there´s literally hours of material like this in nemesis archives.
As a counterweight for the hard work at creating multitracked compositions full of overdubs, we did a lot of very loose improvisations that were in the can as soon as they had been played. We loved this kind of instant composing without any pre-set ideas and some of the early stuff really clicked. Some of the best ambient material of the albums “Music for Earports” (2001) and “Xtempora” (2005) was created like this.
honestly this album takes quite a bit of time and many listening rounds to actually "get into". No doubt it is technically excellent, with more advanced composition elements than earlier records, however it isn't that easily accessible either. Perhaps this is actually a strength as each time you will listen to there will be more details to discover. Martin R
Beautiful Berlin School music. I especially love the nod to TD's "Ricochet" on Omega Pt.3. I hope the rumours of Arcane being "retired" aren't true, because music like this is too good to lose. eugene51
Omni Gardens' music is an invitation to a gentle organic world where the soft melodies are warm and dappled like sunlight hitting water. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 27, 2023
