Escher Drawings Part 7 7:58 ----- Total 61:23 min R E L E A S E N O T E S ------------------------- Originally released in 1991. This is the 2004 re-release. Remastered by Ron Boots. Escher was an artist who in his work was very into structures and lines. The same thing can also be said about electronic music. The music of Bas B. Broekhuis is also quite structured and tight. Perhaps this has something to do with the fact that he is very accomplished (electronic) drummer. He is much in demand as a session drummer for other electronic artists and has worked with people like Ron Boots and Keller/Schonwalder. Often, he is called a next Harald Grosskopf. After initially producing music as The System and working with Ron Boots as Project Two/Point One, "The Escher Drawings" from 1991 was BasÆ first solo album under his own name. It contains music that represents the period in which it was produced very well (with a lot of D-50 sounds) but has survived the course of time in an excellent way. As can be expected from Bas, rhythm plays an important part in his music. The album, divided into seven parts, has some wonderful tracks. Part 1, already known from Project Two/Point One, has a somewhat traditional Klaus Schulze sequencer style. On other moments like the very relaxed Part 2 the approach is more atmospheric, is Part 4 slightly filmy while Part 5 even has some jazzy elements. The highlight of the album is perhaps the ingenious Part 7 that has a great eighties feeling to it. Now, in the remastered version of Ron Boots, we can enjoy this top album from Dutch soil again. released January 1, 2004 iNTERNAL _iNT For Archive Purposes... Sometimes We Archiving Something....
