“Well, kick
ass,” as we like to say here at Last Plane to Jakarta. While
it’s true that we’ve been known to find the same still center
in some of the noisiest places (an almost unimaginably harsh album by Atomsmasher,
for example, which you have to hear to believe), we can’t imagine any
sincere listener not hearing an eerily peaceful resonance in this album.
Some people, myself included, have a hard time allying ourselves with the
music critics over there at Yoga
Journal, but if you’ve got enough discipline to sweep all your
prejudices off to one side and give an unabashedly New Age piece of music
a listen, Structures From Silence will reward your scrutiny with
something very close to an altered state of consciousness. In its studied
refusal to leave its point of departure, it finds a unique and oddly lush
void.
