about

"The Russian trio are back with a new EP, that comprises part of the soundtrack to the film Blue Rose. The film is still a work-in-progress, but based upon its title and these new pieces Compassionizer have composed for the soundtrack, it’s sure to be a twisted and surreal David Lynch endeavour. The film’s director, Dmitry Rumyantsev, is officially designated a fourth member of Compassionizer for this release, responsible for sound design and art conception. But the main attraction for me, as it was with last year’s debut, Caress of Compassion, is the bass clarinet of Leonid Perevalov. Perevalov played clarinet and bass clarinet on Caress, but on this EP sticks to the bass clarinet, while guest musician Andrey Stefinoff provides the clarinet on the title track(s).

Title tracks? Yes, for the EP comprises two versions of Your Gold and Silver is Cankered, along with two parts of Be Able to Stand in the Evil Day. These two sides of the same coins are separated by a track developed from Ivan Rozmainsky’s soundtrack to a poem of the same name (The Third Rome), written by Maria Leontieva. If the title of the film these tracks soundtrack alludes to the work of David Lynch, then the track titles themselves reflect this too, in a more oblique fashion. Many of Lynch’s characters have supernatural or omnipotent aspects, and it is notable that the track titles are either quotes from the bible or a reference to the idea that Russia or, more specifically, Moscow succeeded Rome and Byzantium as the centre of Christianity. In any case, The Third Rome is probably my favourite track, and it is all too short. I could definitely have done with more of this!

But, if not my favourite contribution to the EP, Rozmainsky’s most intriguing is his playing of the harpsichord – a baroque keyboard where the strings are plucked, rather than hit, giving an instantly recognisable sound that people tend to either love or hate. Luckily for me, I love it. It’s played, recorded, manipulated and looped, and it sounds as unworldly as I would expect from a paranormal Blue Rose. But I’m grateful that, as much as I enjoy it, it’s employed sparsely. It’s neat, but I’d rather stick to the waves of synths, and more sympathetic to the ear strings of the rubab (and to a lesser extent, guitar) played by Serghei Liubcenco. Thankfully there is plenty of this, and the EP is a very pleasant surprise, coming so soon after last year’s album. I look forward to the next full length release…"

The new live EP by Ryan W. Stevenson's project reminded me, that this debut album must have been gone down the wishlist... If instrumental Canterbury stuff is your thing, this should be a no-brainer. Firmly rooted in the past (late 60s, 70s), nevertheless with a fresh sound. Guests incude The Tangent's Andy Tillison and Soft Machine's Theo Travis. Carsten Pieper
