Another radical change in expression comes with the third
release from 1000SCHOEN titled "Yoshiwara". "Yoshiwara" is also the name of a prostitute area of the 17 th century’s Tokyo just like it was the name of the nightclub in Fritz Lang’s movie "Metropolis" (1927) where the main character Maria worked as an exotic dancer. This very interesting album by German composer 1000Schøen (ex-Maeror tri) could well be the soundtrack for a 21 st century’s edition of the
Fritz Lang’s legendary futuristic movie. Taking its starting point in the world
of ambience the intense work circulates in sonic worlds of buzzing noise drones
and otherworldly spheres of melodic beauty. Thus being both dramatic and
harmonic in expression the album changes between short tracks and long
conceptual tracks with the third track (all tracks are untitled!) clocking 26+
minutes. "Yoshiwara" is a remarkable work of experimental ambient...
