A M.B. IEHN TALE

The previous review provides a very rich summary of "AMB. Iehn Tale" unique world of collage sounds. I won't be more exhaustive but I'll simply stresses the importance of this album in semi-abstract electronic treatments. In his last musical production Bianchi momentarily abandoned his noisy-industrial and shocking horror scores for ultra "visceral" and delicate meditative electronic fragments. Just as Basinski's tapes the result is "unclassifiable": a deluge of intense, emotional and melancholic organic textures built on abrasive, obscured, disintegrated effects. "Biodegradable" features dreamy, unearthly electronic loops; a "petrified", "ecstatic " and "aesthetic" ambient piece. "Inorganic" is a "tragic", "strange" haunting piece based on plaintive electronic sounds put together in superposed, almost non distinct voices. "Hormone" is a cloudy and oxidized world of sounds which hide a subtle melancholic organ melody in the background. "Tale" is the most representative piece with decayed, mystified, plaintive electronic melodies and stormy collage sounds. An absolutely lovely and disturbing effort! A magnificent work touched by the "sublime". One of my all time favourite albums. Similar desintegrate drones & fragile musical experience in "M.I. Nheem Alysm".
