Robert Leiner - Visions Of The Past

Obviously, the worst material by Robert Leiner (even in '94 and even for NON "english fluent" WASP palz - ndlr). It's only easy cheesy mellow "goatisitc" patterns, nothing compare to solid inspirated ambient stuffs done at this time by Fsol or Biosphere, 'course The Orb only for some.
The good point of this one is ... the cover design who is typical of early 90'z R&S plain sleeves releases. What a job !? The Source's "organised noise" lp or The Source Experience "2.12 (mental rider/elektra)" EP are robert leiner dense/dance masterpieces. Back to ambient, checkout Solar Quest's "orgship" cd on SSR (discogs.com/release/44039) : that's the way for tribal-toned warm & peaceful inspirated flow ...

No, did not like this one... It came out in january 94, and maybe was pointing out that the so-called "ambient" music had run it course. Well produced, well polished, but...where's the originality?
Listen to it if you're a newcomer and it'll blow your mind. But if you are already deep-rooted into the scene, you'll instantly recognize sounds from other records (Namlook, Reload...) not very cleverly used. Thing a bit annoying is so many people were raving about this record when in my opinion it lacks so much creativity.

Robert Leiner a.k.a. Source Experience made beautiful progressive trance, here in a more ambient kind of John Digweed meets Banco de Gaia treatment: less pulsating and with more ambient soundscapes. Again a completely overlooked album of very high quality.
