Si Matthews's Carpe Sonum debut, Tales of Ten Worlds, glorified the Namlook template to usher in new vistas of expansive headtones; to mix Fax-ian metaphors, something like an 'environmental space music' that trafficked in Germanic kosmische traditions while not becoming wholly subservient to them. On Across the Ether, Matthews' manages to find a way deeper into the cosmos with a purity of essence and engulfing outreach, using a broad range of merry modules to free your mind for your soul to follow. Beginning with the prickly drone clusters, shimmering galactic bubblewrap, and moog-esque whoosh of opener \"The Search\", snatches of abandoned astronauts dialog frozen in a distant quasar's bandwidth eerily paint a picture of beings trapped in all-encompassing voids, the light of farflung orbs their only accompanying illumination. It's an utterly compelling beginning that finds Matthews doing what 'classic' synth\/space music does best: erect whole new imagistic textures never before heard, considered, or contemplated. With the 'renaissance' of electronic and synth-generated music going on full-force for nigh on a decade now, Matthews remains one of the movement's most talented young whippersnappers, amorphous by decree, providing us with, to borrow an album title from Hawkwind, astounding sounds, amazing music.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Search\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLight Years Away\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIsolated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDerelict Places\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCircles In The Stars Above\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProxima Centauri\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn Stone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLunar Serenity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLast Exit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAcross The Ether, Pt. 1 \u0026amp;amp; 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEncountered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEscaping Gravity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLanding Probe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpeed Of Thought\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA New Horizon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRadial Velocity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"5","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":50792175501608,"sku":"70852718088","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/waterloorecords.com\/products\/si-matthews-across-the-ether-cd-70852718088","provider":"Waterloo Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
