This
is basically a solo record by Rich Millman from Carlton Melton. Andy Duvall
provides guitar on one of the five tracks (Alpha Jerk) but the rest is Rich…. I
first listened to this record with my friend Magnus at the end of a long night
of hearing music. It was around 3am when we put the needle down on the record
and the journey began. Night Flight starts things off and this is a slow
flowing synth drone that really floats and evolves slowly and really makes yu
feel like you floating in space.. If you did not completely drift off into
space, the next track Orgins might take you there. There is a really long delay
on the short organ like sequences that make this one really spacey. Side B
starts off with a repeated synthesized beat as the synths fade up and sort of
buzz and then another spacey sound, perhaps from guitar starts to pass through the
soundscape. This track has a bit of edge to it.. Like the space ship is going
to crash? Later on Rich or Andy plays a nice guitar solo to compliment the in
your face synth drone. Cool stuff. Lure also makes us of long delays making the
simple changes sort of get amplified to make it really spaced out. Corspe Strut
closes this album of Night Flights again with some primitive percussion and a
sort of unsettling feeling compared to the opening tranquillity of the record.
I guess there will be a vol 2?? Thanks Rich.. I would describe this album as
music to float into space with. Enjoy…
