Out of the mere arrangement of tones Anthony Paul Kirby recording as Nunc Stans
is able to conjure up distinct and evocative Ambient atmospheres. Some of the
ten tracks on his CD THE UNNAMABLE are rendered in darkness, fewer in light,
together bringing the listener to an interesting digital twilight of their own
imagining. This music is the sonic equivalent of clouds crossing a great plain
or mist rising from a dark body of water - in order to perceive and appreciate
these qualities the beholder must match the activity level of their
surroundings. The sounds are wonderful. They rise and recede gently, each in its
own turn. Drones slowly crest as different tones touch in space to create a
distinctive gradually resonating soundfield. Long deep tones roll beneath
tingling high frequencies - and in between the panorama extends towards a hazy
hidden horizon. Thanks to Kirby's personal language of abstraction, these
beautiful soundscapes turn any quiet listening area into an all-encompassing
sonic environment.

Please tune into STAR'S END this weekend for music from the Canadian Electronic
artist Nunc Stans and his new CD THE UNNAMABLE
