Existentions

Recorded in 1990.

The album title track for this work by Mikhail Chekalin is one of his most powerful post-symphonic landscapes. With a running time of 56+ minutes, it literally reverberates and undulates, resulting in a musical kaleidoscope overflowing with swirling tone colors of pulsating electronic sound.
The albums other two tracks, Reflections 1 & Reflections 2, exhibit a bit more classical influence incorporated into spatial electronic soundscapes that venture off into free-form synthetics at various points in Part 1. Part 2 exhibits a bit darker tone. The music is more impressionistic, inhabited by deep bass voices and spatial, laser-like electronics with spatial effects inhabiting the mix. All 3-tracks combine to create a wonderfully surreal listening experience.
