Description
"A hugely entertaining and highly original electronic music album â€“ contender for EM album of the yearâ€?. Three years in the making, Nyx is a technical and musical masterpiece! Full of stunning rhythmic, sequencer style music, it's very modern, yet paradoxically, reminds one of those glorious bygone days of moogs, mellotrons and a sense of electronic music adventure. The two Davids, Wright & Massey, use their Callisto project pseudonym to express a shared musical vision, heavily influenced by Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Kraftwerk and Jean Michelle Jarre. Yet cleverly, this is a highly original album both musically and technically, and Callisto haven't forgotten that those icons of the em genre included a great sense of atmosphere, emotion and musical structure. So "Nyx" contains complex sequences and driving rhythms complemented by tremendous musical ideas and structure; four epic tracks that weave a magical spell for a colossal 76 minutes. This really is one classy album, utilising the latest computer technology alongside classic analog synths of the past. If you thought the 2004 offering "Signal to the Stars" was good, just wait until you feast on this unbelievable follow-up. Destined to be a genuine electronic music classic!
