As the centrepieces of the band’s live set, a series of wonderful concerts took place, drawing on the classic material from the band’s past, as well as their more recent albums such as "A Grounding in Numbers”…

With their music, which is close to Dadaism, the Swiss band Yellow emphatically shaped the world of electronic music beginning in the eighties and, albeit more accidentally than intentionally, paved the way for Techno. Even though their presence diminished significantly in the nineties, Yello never fully withdrew from the scene. With her new album Point, Yello is back once again…

The eventual schism that resulted in the formation of Luca Turilli's Rhapsody and the termination of his former solo projects and association with his mainstay brand Rhapsody Of Fire could be seen as inevitable, insofar that with the conclusion of the second stream of episodes of the original Emerald Sword saga that some changing of the guard was in the works, especially considering the monumental feat of putting out 14 albums in less than 20 years…

Ask anyone about electronic music and chances are you get names like Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Vangelis, Kraftwerk and Jean-Michel Jarre thrown at you. Obviously there's plenty more where they came from but to the untrained listener these are the major names linked with synthesizers, samplers, rhythm composers and above all atmosphere!
It's that particular atmosphere which forms the backbone for the third CD by Belgian electronic musician Frank Quasar. Aptly titled Atmos, the seven tracks take us on an hour long journey through various themes and indeed… atmospheres. So far Frank has released an album every two years (not counting his vinyl output Dusk from 1988 and his presence on the Ambient Nation sampler) and each time he goes further and further, getting better and better. The sleeve design is a delight whilst the music is yet again professional in every aspect…
He uses the classic electronic components, juggles with analogue and digital equipment and doesn't fear to throw in some rhythmic patterns to create something new and exciting.
