Erik Wøllo creates evocative electronic scores for the cinema of
sleep. The imaginative soundtracks on his CD ELEVATIONS
(65'09") conjure up vast panoramas and limitless horizons. The
music is spacious and uncluttered, and has a fresh and natural
quality to it. Elegant melodies wander through soundscapes of
gentle beats and take the listener from states of dreamlike
stillness, to frozen brilliance, to warm enchantment. Strikingly
similar to his exalted early works "Traces" and "Images of Light",
ELEVATIONS opens up spaces and serenely fills them with
music. Wøllo's signature use of shining, consonant chord
structures, tender melodic phrasing, and masterful sound
design are what give ELEVATIONS its adventurous and vibrant
character. These 12 deceptively simple compositions are a
reading of the spirit as Wøllo infuses this work with his own
being. Through his guitar and synthesizers, the summoned
music arises, and Wøllo's vaporous ideas chill into form.

Tune into STAR'S END this weekend for music from
