Hard to believe this is 30 years old now! Call it 'historic'?! Wonderful audio fidelity. Headphones a must. Invisible journey music, separated from a lot of electronica by Paul's kinetic rhythms and palette of textures; of what used to be called '4th world': ancient culture ritual, jungle ambient, mixed with the ever doubtful digital machine. Lots to listen to for sure.... too much? Its like a collage of nanotechnology trying to insinuate itself into the live earth through a dreamed gate. But can this be? Mechanical man seems an intruder in God's night garden... Sounds like these don't need hallucinogens... There is beautiful here, also otherness... Beauty has to be in art, or what is the point... ....Rather than the sonic dreams of the possible (the Grinder? everywhere hiding), our time needs Christ, the Author of Reality itself. The cry was going up 30 years ago!! Always liked "Wind from Nowhere". Like a ride at a gigantic amusement park. Coolest bassline ever. Still holds up. (but btw, With God, there are no "Nowheres" : )
1:23 Omg... I guess we found the inspiration for Hans Zimmer - Time _"If you can steal an idea from someone's mind, why can't you plant one there instead?"_
The diversity found in Hirasawa's discography is outstanding. In every single piece of music, this man has made after the disbandment of P-model, his brand of vehemence and melancholy can be found, as well as his story-teller aura. I am deeply grateful that I can experience his art.
Thanks so much for uploading. Loved & Listened to this early 90’s, while working on my Architecture studios projects building models, hours on repeat. But lost the CD a long time ago & could not find it again even on streaming Spotify, iTunes… so odd, nowhere to be found until now here!!! Awesome, music has aged very well imho.
The fact that Holy Delay ends with a very low drone sound (similar to a rocket taking off) but is not used as a transition into Gemini is one hell of a missed opportunity.
