Sorales II by Roland Kayn

As the oceanic swell of ‘Sorales’ continues into its second part, it’s hard not to marvel at Kayn’s restraint: a Cagean found-object appreciation of his own working materials is perhaps evident, as he allows them to breathe and envelope the listener.

As ever, we are beguiled by sound without readily apparent origin. Is that slowly barreling feedback or the tide-like movement of an infinitely stretched orchestral passage? Lost in the waves, we can only submit to the unremitting flow of sound.

"The mystery, the grace, the boundless invention – Kayn’s machine music is a vast catalogue of very human wonder." -The Guardian
