Comments from proud owners of The Transparent Man album

MORPHEUS MUSIC REVIEWS

STYLE
Atmospheric, down/mid-tempo world fusion. Programmed electronic structures are overlaid with ethnic instruments and chants along with male and female spoken voice samples. The style has moments reminiscent of Deep Forest and hints of Enigma, but overall has more of a U.K. global trance feel to it.

MOOD
The introductions are unhurried, shadowy, moody affairs often with ethnic percussion. Once most of the tracks get going they fall slightly on the dark side of the spectrum but only just into shadow, lots of warm bright light and colour filters through. The feel is one of laid back flight - on the edge of space but dipping and skimming effortlessly through continents and cultures.

ARTWORK
A computer graphic, psychedelic cornucopia - busy kaleidoscopic images, bright colours and words of cosmic wisdom. The images, sleeve design and words are by controversial Bosnian artist Ivan Rados. The mass of detail reflects the musical content where a wide variety of sonic patterns rise and fall among the constantly moving synthetic waves

OVERALL
A plethora of drones, flutes, pipes, deep thumping drums, exotic voices held together with contemporary western structures. The beats are clear and smooth often having tribal interludes or undertones with deep booming bass drums. The synthesisers are mainly used to provide washes and stabs as opposed to arpeggios or melody lines. For me this album gets better as it goes on, some stronger, deeper atmospheres are formed in the later tracks. Excellent production.

WHO WILL LIKE THIS ALBUM
Lovers of electronic, world fusion. Imagine the early Banco De Gaia sound with more ethnic elements akin to Deep Forest and a somewhat slower tempo at times like Enigma

Rados are Paul Riordan and Kent Davies, a project named after Ivan Rados who provides ethnic sounding vocals in the majority of this music. Their debut album, ‘The Transparent Man’, is a wonderful excursion through powerful and atmospheric down-tempo electronica, backed by glorious ethnic sounding vocals and thought provoking spoken samples. From this album are the two recent parachute tracks, ‘My Soul is at the End of the Universe’ and ‘Immortal Sounds’.

“this is a wonderful excursion through powerful and atmospheric down-tempo electronica,backed by glorious ethnic sounding vocals and thought provoking spoken samples. There are very few albums in my extensive collection that i’d give a 10/10 rating for - this is one of them. It’s an astounding album - Essential.”

I absolutely loved the electronic atmosphere with a little bit of funk thrown in! I have an extensive library of music (particularly electronica)and am pleased to put this one in with my Banco de Gaia/Deep Forest etc. collection. It is an extreme pleasure to listen to this one over and over again.

“Just wanted to say that we recently bought your CD from Big Mind and I think it’s absolutely brilliant. The atmosphere, the lush orchestrations, the words, the soaring melodies are just too much. - it’s like being given a really good massage.”

This is a fantastic EP, with each track emmiting so much energy and atmosphere whilst remaining predominently in the realms of ambient dance.

Down-tempo electronica mix with world voices and instrumentation to create an atmospheric, heady offering. The electronica has a distinctly U.K. feel to me, similar in places to Banco De Gaia - but overall Rados is perhaps more in the region of Deep Forest and Ikarus. Well worth a listen if you haven’t yet heard
