Henrik Schwarz
'Instruments' (Sony Classical)
8/10
Innervisions impresario Henrik Schwarz has always pushed the more musical elements of electronic music in his productions, with the emphasis on real instruments always to the fore – so its no surprise that his latest project pushes that logic to a classical conclusion. Performed by Henrik with the Tokyo Secret Orchestra and conductor Emi Akiyama, this is a collection for people who like lofty ambition and the light, sweeping touch of an orchestral, Michael Nyman-esque score. There are seven tracks here, including the evergreen club hit 'Walk Music' – and all of them sound energised by their new Japanese environment with a selection of strings, horns and cellos.
