Rudy Adrian: Twilight: Atmospheric Works vol. 2
ByI much prefer the slow ambient pieces to the more rhythmic material. Adrian works best when it's dreamy and quiet, and he can take advantage of those time-honored ambient features, such as modal harmonies, floating chords, and soaking digital reverb. The flute-playing of Nick Prosser also adds some fine acoustic touches in tracks 5, 7, and 9. However, there is nothing much that is new or original in this album; you've heard it all before. But unoriginality doesn't stop this from being gentle, pleasant, and, in keeping with the title, nocturnal - or at least crepuscular.*
*Crepuscular: having to do with twilight.
