Chuck van Zyl: Transience (Limited Edition CD)

Product Description

Moved by the creative impulse Chuck van Zyl is continually re-imagining the potential
of his music. The four tracks presented on Transience (71:25) are meant to dwell in the
most vibrant parts of our imagination. Propelled by machine dreams and nocturnal
musings this studio endeavor ponders the promise of the future and our coming travels
there.

Drifting between synthesizer states in a darksome minor key, chords sigh, then ascend
skyward over building banks of sequencer runs. Pulsing patterns circle and cycle in motor
precision as celestial synth-bourne leads and spacey spiraling effects further charge this
work. Amidst the metronome tempo and echoing arpeggios Transience enjoys a deep
zone mind melt. With so many sounds in motion it is here that Chuck van Zyl advances
so vibrantly in his own striking assertion of life.

The energy arcing and sparking through Transience is an appeal to the psyche.
Somewhere within its sonic logic, mirage collage and electronic harmonics this album
reveals itself to the listener – in a vivid, sonorous language of symbols and ideas.

Limited edition CD (not CDR) of 200 copies in a 6 panel digipak.
