K Leimer is a believer in the possibilities of the electronic music
synthesizer. His charismatic musical vision is arrived at through
the accumulation of experiences and encounters with an
intriguing range of art. The album STATISTICAL TRUTH (67'29")
portrays the unifying effect of these multiple influences.
Composing in an expanded minimalistic style, Leimer
transcends the empty prettiness of new age with doses of
menace and drama. The 11 tracks alternately divide the
soundfield among several simultaneously advancing musical
streams then jump wholly from one focused theme to another. A
number of pieces expand as if algorithmically composed and
come off sounding like a futuristic robot-driven chamber
ensemble. Other titles advance in a mechanistic rush
somewhere between art-rock progressions and ethno-electro
beats. Leimer's impressionistic work is multi-layered, beautiful
and serene and encourages non-conscious thought while the
power pieces rouse the listener into Leimer's own dream of
drums and patterns. However imbued with Ambient Music and
Contemporary Instrumental influences, Leimer's compositional
style originates from a more intuitive and personal process.
Through the hidden gestures of its tonal narratives,
STATISTICAL TRUTH intimates much more than it says.
