well, this starts off a bit more interesting, although it falls into every-other-ambient-song-ever-made a little under halfway through.

see, i wouldn't argue lopatin is without potential. but i find he (and a lot of his contemporaries, as well) release such an incredible bulk of material that it's easy to see why so much of it is so lacklustre. maybe if they spent more time on their work it wouldn't all sound the same?

but, overall, this kind of reminds me of the time that keith emerson decided it was a good idea to redo a bunch of mussorgsky on primitive synths. it really wasn't a very good idea. that was probably prog rock's most openly pompous and pretentious  (and least self-conscious) moment. this will have a similar fate in the annals of music history...

the only half decent attempt at reinterpreting classical music for synthesizers that i've heard is william orbit's "pieces in a modern style".

well, the existing genres are all tainted, and i needed a catch phrase....

it's psych, basically.

Listen to Isao Tomita's Pictures At An Exhibition

i really wish people would just listen to mussorgsky's pictures at an exhibition, and tell everybody that's trying to commodify it to fuck off.
