Roedelius - 2010 - Ex Animo


Review

Ex Animo is consistently calm, collected and dispensed with each rhythmic element. The focus is mostly impressionist or sometimes romanticized sounds of the piano, accompanied by subtle, ambient-like electronic sounds. It may sound a little to "Easy listening" and indeed, the music mostly a relaxing character; for it but then again varied. And even under a quiet surface, it can boil, as the wonderful Eo Ipso shows. In this extremely minimalist piece a short, repetitive sequence of notes is backed by strange noises, hisses, hums and creaks are constantly in the background. Bizarre!
