Rated 5/5
Review by The-1-and-Holy Sep 12, 2008
An undeniable specimen of the thing i refer to as "dub in ambience". I really can't stress enough how this album moves me in many ways with many different emotions. The precise way fluxion arranges and displays his work is almost a morphing masterpiece of music, moving art if you will. A beautifully constructed gem worth owning for anyone and a must have amongst collectors, quite possibly one of the greatest albums to bless my ears. If your forte resides close to ambient, dub, idm, electro, trance, house, or just flat out positive uplifting beats, this is essential listening.

Review by Zauberberg Dec 06, 2005 (edited over 3 years ago)
"Vibrant Forms" stands much away from other Chain Reaction gems; having said that, I'm aware that many of minimal-dub-techno fans would not share my points of view. But, as a dedicated listener, I must emphasize strong, almost mathematic precision in creation of dubby environment around and inside the 'submarined' minimal beats presented by Fluxion. Great atmosphere emerges from unexplored subspaces, evolving through carefuly arranged rhythms and oscillation patterns. I like to think of it as a fusion of intelligent and emotional sides of human soul, being and showing itself as one perfectly composed structure. Just as it should be.
It may sound strange, but this release very often reminds me of GAS' "Pop" - almost the same kind of strong beatless expression being submerged in dense, heavy and sometimes unexplainable blurriness.
