More Info

"I started flying over Vertonen, mainly because upon first glance this seemed to be the name I know best. From the various shades and shapes Vertonen, which is Blake Edwards plus devices, can take, be it noise, drone, musique concrete, we find him here in a drone mood. The tape is a bit hissy, and I can't seem to make up my mind if I like that or not. The ear piercing, mid-range drone sound is perhaps something that would be too ear piercing when delivered on a hiss-less CDR release, so maybe it makes sense to put it on a cassette. What starts as a single sine wave like suddenly seems expanded into a stereo split tone poem and a great use of effects. On the other side we find 'Soma Trio Study 6' and here it starts with a whole bunch of electronically processed sounds and to quite a great effect. Almost melodic, almost like an ambient guitar ensemble. What devices does he use? Very dreamy stuff, especially on the second side of the cassette. This is the first winner." [FdW/Vital Weekly]
