More Info

Mit METAPHONICS bezeichnet Z'EV Klänge, denen er das Vermögen zuschreibt, das Bewusstsein des Hörers zu verändern bzw. besondere Realitätsebenen zu erreichen, wobei er besonders auf die Dehnung der Zeitwahrnehmung anspielt.
Der röhrend-dronige 35minütige One-tracker auf dieser CDR ist ein schönes Beispiel dafür, wenn sich bei voller Aufmerksamkeit ungeahnte Tiefenklänge und Mikrosounds entfalten zu scheinen. Auf dem HATI-Label, leider in einer limitierten Auflage von nur 222 Stück! TIP !

"The ever so, and even more now, active force of z'ev sees him playing around the world, and occasionally with the people of Polish ritual music makers Hati. They now release a work by z'ev that was recorded two years ago in London. Metaphonics is a term 'for what is now generally referred to as Sacred Music', it says on the cover: 'that is, a music whose intent is to alter consciousness or to transpose between states of consciousness and/or levels of reality/ies'. I didn't follow z'ev recommendation of listening in total darkness, but I can sense what he is about. In the thirty-five minutes, z'ev depicts a semi-industrial landscape. A tape-composition of sounds floating about, using the stereo spectrum to it's full capacity, but which at the same time still shows z'ev's interest in rhythmic music. There is a strong rhythmic feel to the music, which might be occurring due to the massive level of layered the sounds, which are slightly out of phase, going from one speaker to the other. After following his career for the last twenty-five or more years, I must say that his recent shift into using more and more studio based composition, is a great one. Not many of his recent releases let me down, and 'Metaphonics' is no different. A strong, dense mass of sound. Even in some light." [FdW / Vital Weekly]
