Wollo, Erik
The Shape Of Time
Time shapes our world and our concepts. From earths erosion to patterns in nature - fossils, stone formations, crystalline ice, glaciers, or delicate shells - all visual images of forms show us the linear time which passed across them. Together, these ideas inspired Erik Wollo in the creation of this album. With The Shape of Time, Norwegian composer Wollo transforms the abstract into nine compositions of thoughtful and seductive ambient electronic music with melodic soaring themes, vast slow-moving drones and red and endless moments present an exquisite collection of moods and emotions. Ranging from the vigorous and earthy to mesmerizing, evocative and wistful late-night Nordic light-scenes. All created on synthesizers, samplers, electric and acoustic guitars. The Shape of Time invites one to the procession; its a sonic jewel for connoisseurs of shimmeringly expansive ambience traversed with filigreed instrumental intensity.
