Medo's Little Trap - Medicine Sound
GENRE: Electronic, Pop, Minimalism, Electroacoustic
Label: La Bel
Release date: 2012
Total running time: 00:17:35
A medicine sound against humanity that screams and shouts.
A small work which is like a whisper, re-discovering the basic things to say.
A delicate work, between electro-pop, acoustic ballads and symphonic bewilderment.
MeDo’s Little Trap is a container, an imaginary collective, whose only composer and permanent member, tries to hide in order to come across only as a pure musical act. The idea of the collective dates back to 2010. The musical production took shape in 2008. Actually the record project involves the publication of a full album, but since self-production requires a very long time, the collective/non-collective decided to release in the meantime a 4 tracks EP: Medicine Sound.

Frore - Axis Mund
GENRE: Electronic, Ambient, Drone, World Fusion, Tribal
Label: Earth Mantra
Release date: 2012
Total running time: 00:51:26
Thematically, the album is obviously about the Axis Mundi mythology, the turning point of the world and line through the Earth's center around which the universe revolves. Some cultures believe the Axis Mundi is a mountain, some a giant tree. Paul reports: "The idea behind the piece was exploring the climb up the Axis Mundi, or going into the Axis, depending on how you look at it. The piece starts off dark (at the base of the tree / mountain), and filled with shadows. From there it gets a little lighter, although there are still some dark elements mixed in. Finally it ends in a view from the top, or the place deep inside. Basically, it's just about getting lost in a world and going for a ride."
And what a ride the listener experiences. Musically, the piece evolves at the ideal peace, flowing slowly from scene to scene without calling any attention to the movement. The ambient elements are particularly well done, with radiant swells of texture revolving effortlessly around the axis of the listener's consciousness. As always with Frore, the percussive elements delight. Rattles, clay flutes, fujara, shells and stones, rain stick, frame drums, djembe, and other percussion instruments provide a dramatic foundation upon which the entire piece rests. And the production quality amazes us. Paul has always focused carefully on the details of his recordings and his instrumentation, but he seems to have outdone himself with this album. A perfectly balanced spectrum, a spectacularly detailed mix, and a superb mastering sheen combine, a masterwork as the result.
Listeners will notice a strong Steve Roach or Vidna Obmana influence, but to us the Paul Casper influence outshines them all. This is the music of Frore, fresh and inviting, the kind of sound journey that makes us want to listen again and again. We feel strongly that this album will go down as one of the best tribal ambient albums of 2012, and one we are exceptionally proud to bring to our listeners. In our view, nothing less than music for the ages.

Gardens From Light – The Axis Of The Skies
GENRE: Electronic, Drone, Dark Ambient, Soundscape
Label: Resting Bell
Release date: 2012
Total running time: 00:77:00
"The Axis Of The Skies" is a huge 77-minute piece, loosely inspired by the H.P. Lovecraft story Polaris. It is designed to evoke a feeling of drifting in and out of a dream world, whilst simultaneously floating through space towards a dying star. It is divided into 5 pieces but is best enjoyed as a single long-form piece. If you take a listen, you’ll drift into a massive world of sound. Sparkling melodies; dark, droning environments and GFL's trademark use of field recordings are all there, changing around and guiding you through this journey. The climax of the piece is the fourth section, "Gravity Assist", with its slowly-evolving, harshly distorted parts changing to a very subtle and quiet passage leading into the final part of the work.
