Timelines
Timelines has been selected February CD of the month for the syndicated Echoes Radio show. Echoes writes, Norwegian guitarist and synthesist Erik Wøllo returns with his devastatingly beautiful CD of electro-orchestrated moods.
Timelines is the 18th solo album from veteran Norwegian ambient/electronic artist Erik Wøllo. It s a warm, epic and shimmering cycle of memorable electronic music. Nine engaging pieces exploring the idea of music and time: how elements of past, present and future affect a listener s perceptions.
Layers of acoustic guitar loops and pulsation-patterns create the foundation on which Wøllo s distinct melodic piano themes are played. The pieces bring emotional synth lines and powerful deep basses together with delicate percussion arrangements. As a natural and important counterpoint to the expressive piano themes, Wøllo s electric guitar ebow solos are both intense and haunting.
Timelines is an accessible and inviting album: an occasion with which the listener can discover involving music that combines rhythmic grooves and atmospheres with recognizable lyrical passages.
