Description
As a palette cleanser after Guitars from the Stars, Ambient Apocalypse is an elegant collection of instrumental ambient shorts along with occasional prophetic vocals. Its apocalyptic folk, eastern mysticism, and the usual industrial kaos rolled into one.
Notes
Aaaah, in this era of digital overproduction, it is actually comforting to hear an occasional sloppy edit, imbalanced sound level, or the soft warmth of tape hiss in the background. Imagine discovering a dusty "jam box" in a 1983 time capsule. Inside there is a cassette of unknown origin, which captures the essence of late 70s and early 80s ambient industrial music. The home-made nature is recognizably pioneering for its time and brings nostalgia for younger days, however this tape seems to have an eery, prophetic ability and its mission is to announce that the end is near.
Ambient Apocalypse is a hazy recollection after the blaring ride of Guitars from the Stars. We have awakened from a one night stand in a back stage bathroom to find that the end of the world has already come and gone. It is subdued and malignant; quietly brooding while consuming its listener, who has no idea that it is already too late.
The album contains many nice instrumental ambient works, such as the title song, Socratic Symphony, Crashing Keys, and Beacon. KKM's mystical voice still makes appearances, as if a conductor for the grand finale of a schizophrenic parade. We also have the emergence of apocalyptic space folk with cameo appearances by a crafty "electric sitar". It is like Boyd Rice and Dave Tibet became Taoists, and then wrote the soundtrack for a low budget 1980 sci-fi movie about the end of the world. Or better yet, it is as if Throbbing Gristle wrote an opera and dubbed in Edward Ka Spel 45s cranked down 33 rpm for the vocals. After a very productive year, Ambient Apocalypse provides a nice breather before going on hiatus. The album is quietly bold; a scandalous whisper in a revent room; sublime while never losing the projects' unwielding obtrusiveness.
Sit back. Relaaaaaax, and melt into the apocalypse.
