  • They Say...

    Early in his career, Vidna Obmana (aka Dirk Serries) recorded very deep minimalism. He developed his tribal ambient style in the late '90s and early 2000s. Passage in Beauty is one of Obmana's early recordings and it is steeped in the finest traditions of Brian Eno ambience. The soundscapes are full and dense. They are also quite colorful, but the colors are deep gray and foggy blue. This is neither dark minimalism nor pastoral ambience. This is icy minimalism that evokes images of a frozen tundra and the barren polar icecaps. This CD will appeal to fans of Brian Eno, James Johnson, Larry Kucharz, and Jeff Pearce. It is available in The Trilogy, a box set of three of Obmana's cassettes digitally remastered for CD. The set is essential for all fans of electronic minimalism.
