On GLACIAL (48'14"), M Peck strikes an interesting balance
between free-form impressionism and sonic narrative. His frigid
constructs are understated yet compelling. Over the course of
the eight tracks, Peck offers plenty of ice and frost, but also air
and light. Bitter tones creak and scrape where the mood is more
withdrawn while entangled harmonic clouds sustain and shift
through lighter regions. Crystaline patterns of synthesizer blips
careening across a glistening polar icecap slow against the
stillness of hibernating drones and dripping icicles of sound. In
a world of two dimensional realities, Peck's music is nuanced
and lifelike. He does a great job of portraying cold conditions,
based on both the literal arctic regions of the planet and the
isolation of reluctant solitude.
