Markus Reuter Winter Solstice
Bizarre soundscape versions of traditional songs usually associated with this time of year, at least here in Germany. In addition to the meditative soundscapes (which are based on the series of pitches of each tune) I've also overdubbed straight versions of the original melodies. Enjoy this parallel universe... It's strangely hypnotizing. Only available from December 1st to December 31st.

There
are many things that 'inspire' the music I do, but perhaps one of the
most endearing is Winter. Apart from the usual cliches of
transformation, and the memory echoes from childhood with its
association with Christmas. It's also the way in which, at night, sounds
are strangely muffled, morphed almost and how the landscape glitters
and glows as though we have two full moons.
I guess all that sounds a little pretentious, but as I say, I do have a rather abiding passion for Winter.
My thanks to Thomas Mathie for the cover/artwork.
