Esgi - Echoes In Time
Label: Bandcamp
Release date: 2008
Total running time: 01:09:34
Essentially a concept album comprising twelve tracks of varying pace and feel. Written over the space of a few months in 2007 initially for a sound track, the project developed into this album. Now re-edited and remastered, 'Echoes In Time' is intended as a chilled out escape and something to drift away to.
From the rhythmic pulse and guitar of 'With No Beginning', the Eastern orchestral chants of 'Dawn Of Mind', the smooth melancholy of 'Alone Again' and the filmic feel of 'Destiny', Echoes In Time seeks to explore the world of fantasy, film and emotion.
'I Wonder' with its Close Encounters influence proves this in point and 'A Paradise Lost', which takes us back to primordial lands after a Great Extinction and its rebirth in 'A New World'.
The title track drifts between here and then, slightly disconnected from the rest of album, while 'Of Wars And Power' explodes with violence and fury.
'The Drifter' captures the relief of surviving absolute terror. (Ripley in the escape pod at the conclusion of seminal classic 'Alien').
'In Your Heart' is a more contemporary, guitar solo based track and 'There Is No End' completes the journey with a strings and breakbeat style affair.
I hope you enjoy the album!
Love,
Esgi.
Available in FLAC!

Our Cseasing Voice - When The Headline Hit Home
GENRE: Rock, Post-Rock, Shoegaze, Ambient, Experimental
Label: Revolvermann Records
Release date: 2011
Total running time: 00:57:28
Gradually the lights of the city come to new life, while the random flickering of the large neon sign three blocks away lasts and glances are lost in the distance. The sun slowly descends behind the silhouettes of the skyscrapers, taken over from the approaching night. The orange haze on the horizon is reflected in the windshields of the passing cars, raising the dust, which has been accumulated on the street. Here, between loneliness and hope, stories, which are able to change lives and guide our being exist. Soaking with melancholia Our Ceasing Voice tells these stories with their mix of hypnotic ambient and epic post-rock outburst and help the listener to catch the memories of long forgotten times, in order to save them from transience. Based on the upcoming novel by Sebastian Obermeir, Our Ceasing Voice’s new 2011 album pursues the concept established with their 2009 EP Steadied Stars In The Morphium Sky, while the development to a darker, more dynamic sound is clearly no…ticeable. Beautiful and saddening at the same time, the Austrians draw attention to fragility, passionately making one’s flesh creep and thereby portraying a dramatic story full of yearning and desperation.
