Chronicles II

panoramascene I bought this vinyl for "To Be Surreal" and "Astra Naut-E". Favorite track: To Be Surreal.

PannionSeer This blends 90s ambient sounds with IDM and Detroit techno for a potent concoction of atmosphere and groove. Honestly, if you told me some of these tracks were from 2019, I'd likely believe it. This stuff has aged well. Favorite track: Wand Star.

Albert Freeman Wasn't completely satisfied with the first edition of this series, but it shifts into high gear here with some of the best of the limited material Slater released as this project. Particularly love the broken beat accents on many of the tracks, not to mention the sublime, warm, fat analogue synths that saturate the entire album. Favorite track: Wand Star.

about

In the afterglow of rave’s white heat, the mid-90s were a period of going as far out in all directions as possible – and Luke Slater’s The 7th Plain tracks were certainly about exploration of the deep space of the imagination. Cosmic, analogue, orchestrated, they still represent some of the most emotionally intense music ever to come out of the techno realm. Whether built on percussive frameworks or sweeping nebulas of dissipated sound, Slater’s synthesizers still sing space-travelers’ tales compellingly and beautifully.

Chronicles II is divided between previously released material from The 7th Plain's classics albums My Yellow Wise Rug and The 4 Cornered Room, as well as four unreleased future classics: “Silver Shinhook”, “Wand Star”, “I Think I Think Too Much” and “JDC”.

A truly remarkable album! I'd like to add that this is one of very few albums that I think truly sound better on vinyl, as it only enhances the intended experience. Every little bit seeps with atmosphere, like watching a dystopian, heavily grainy, space movie with ships surveying distant planets. That goes for the artwork as well, to which I'm sure everyone can agree, is the perfect marriage of both sound and visualization. Here's to hoping there'll be a 2846! Trisska
