Aquavoice – Cold
CD, Generator.pl, 2008

From the first tracks of this carefully moulded and shaped ambient album, it becomes clear that the composer Tadeusz Luczejko has invested a lot of attention and time to the outcome.

“Cold” is a gently morphing and flowing textural piece of work which comes in 13 “parts”, breathing a beautiful soft glowing and vibrant brightness. The nicely layered dreamy soundscapes also occasionally feature some Polish spoken words, melancholic undercurrents and environmental/nature sounds.

The fifth track is something rather different with its rather confusing, weird electronics mingled with shouting/animal sounds.
Fortunate enough after that, things slow down again to shimmering, vibrating ambience, with rough, grainy edges & twists.
Later on, some sustained Eno/Budd kindred piano returns, again weaving a soft cascading tapestry of mesmerizing sounds.

I wouldn’t characterize “Cold” an easy ambient recording, as it shows quite some contrasts, adventurous elements and minimal structures. But those who give it some thorough and attentive listens will soon discover its intrinsic beauty and craftsmanship.
