Among the many worn and pompous pages of that Renzo Pin (where have you gone, my brother??? Come back, for I miss your quips! Sigh!), there is one about Shot and Echo by Wim Mertens, where our old showman discusses the album referring to the "research on the nature of melody applied to minimalism." Regardless of the examinations surrounding such a review (in the comments, I notice how Mertens sought the nature of melody long before the release of that mediocre and recycled work), the concept distilled is the interesting term of the discussion: Mertens, like Nyman and a good part of modern popular music authors, engaged in the search for the melodization of minimalism. He did so right from the start, with Vergessen and others, taking up the fixed scheme of repeating essential musical cells according to melodic motifs. He made the lessons of Riley and La Monte Young his own, reworking them. Melodic minimalism. A very different matter compared to this work of Riley (certainly better than the staggering "In C"), seminal and engaging from the perspective of sound research, but steep. Difficult because it is almost entirely experimental, little melodic, a bit (if I may say so) self-indulgent. A stylistic exercise, in short, here and there. And I ruin your average.

Kiara, I'm responding to your card comment: I'm a jerk.

Yes yes, Schulze and Tangerine are very easy to find, the problem concerns all those authors/bands that have worked for German labels and are waiting for reissues. Ajè, I have to wait until tonight, damn it.

No, they are there. But it seems I've used up the only download available from Rapid-Share. Some things are just so complicated.

Ajè, the page has been loading for three hours! No, I don’t think it sounds old; the Can, for instance, sound old to me. I think it’s timeless, it has an ancient patina, but in an unframed time, between the Middle Ages, the '70s, and industrial civilization.

Indeed, there’s a wealth of Amon material, all reprinted. And in addition to the Guru Guru and Can, there's also the reissue of the three Neu!. The Faust are a bit lacking; let's hope that the latest re-edition from Virgin sparks renewed interest, even though the first four are still available.

There's an air of recycling, it's true, but in new solutions. Dream On doesn't sound like a Depeche Mode song at all. If we take all the driving singles, we'll always find similar techno-pop solutions: Behind The Wheel, Never Let Me Down Again, A Question Of Time, World in My Eyes, Home... that opening is disorienting, unconventional: thus, antidepechemodian. Cheers!

It's a bit of the album of regrets. It is because overall it's one of the few where DM seek new solutions not too anchored to the usual techno-pop style. Just look at Dream On, When The Body Speaks, Goodnight Lovers. It's a courageous album in intentions, semi-successful in practice. Gahan's voice languishes, but it’s no worse than what we hear on "Ultra," which, in my opinion, settles on less "consistently" good levels ("Exciter" has 13 tracks all decent, some more, some less; "Ultra" has a good first part, a weak second). It’s listenable. 3.5.
