Remy is a new name in electronic music. A Dutch name, that is. A new name with a familiar sound but also with distinguished own ideas. Remy is inspired by the big names of electronic music and one name that comes in mind is that of Klaus Schulze. In comparison to many of his electronic colleagues, Remy doesn't take Schulze's classic recordings from the 1970s as an example, but leans more towards his more contemporary recordings, especially those from the early 90s.
The tracks on EoD are newly recorded versions of a selection of tracks from Remy's debut abum Exhibition of Dreams, originally released in 1999 as limited 2CDR on AKH Records.
Composed, performed and produced by Remy Stroomer. Recorded between January 1st and August 28th 2009 at the AKH Studio in Ijmuiden, Netherlands.
Review extracts:
Encyclopedia of Electronic Music: "Remy brings in a good dose of individual character to the already familiar style of music [...] This is quite some ecstatic EM, stone cold and yet emotional, mechanical and yet easy-going, aggressive and yet soft, sterile and yet organic, impenetrable and yet infiltrating your very soul."
Sonic Immersion: "In its own way, the sonic content with repetitive structures presented here recalls a classic quality, which is due to the chosen warm sound pads, varied drums / percussion and evocative sequencer patterns. Combined with sweeping melodic lines, it lends the overall outcome a relaxed, moody and even a certain vintage feel."
Guts Of Darkness: "...pure marvels of a Berlin School EM style. Titles as Entering the Dream, Lunascapes and the very audacious Mirage are inescapable and reveal one of the big EM albums of 2009."
