The music of Jeff Greinke has always been about creating
mood. To this end, his early works were comprised of a complex
arrangement of drones and pads that often approached the
atonal. As his compositions became more sophisticated, so did
his musicianship and that which he expressed through it. On
WINTER LIGHT (54'41"), Greinke continues to create a mood,
but the atmosphere is conveyed less in terms of timbre than
through melody, harmony and pacing. Writing uniquely
structured pieces for synthesized chamber ensemble, Greinke
navigates between tundral gloom, Ambient noir and arctic
brilliance. Although the tones on WINTER LIGHT are bright, crisp
and clear, the feel is often melancholic and confidently cold.
Beautiful, stark spaces are opened and then filled with
enchanting and elegant sounds. It is the longing for springtime
made audible.

Tune in to STAR'S END this weekend for music from the new CD
WINTER LIGHT by Jeff Greinke
