Gonno
Remember The Life Is Beautiful (Endless Flight)
7/10
Switching between two extremes of the electronic music scale, from new age and ambient to heads-down techno, without making a pig's ear of it is quite a challenge.
Japanese producer Gonno, though, has pulled it off here: a comforting throb fills the album, an electronic heartbeat that soundtracks the swirling, arpeggiated ambience of Hippies, or the trippy acid-techno of 'Stop' with its spitting hi-hats and skirls of cathedral organ.
Elsewhere, the Tangerine Dream-like 'Beasts In Your Mind' and beautiful beach-lounge sound of 'Already Almost' help complete the full range of Gonno's skill-set.
