Michael Hoffmann Germany Ideology Dub Future Jazz Downtempo Experimental Ambient 2008

If you can trust Brian Eno, then ambient has the capacity to put the listener into a different, not necessarily existent environment just by
the use of sound, and to acoustically confront him with new sensations of space.

Even though carrying on with this tradition, Michael Hoffmann breaks
some more modern ground soundwise on his first solo-ep on iD.EOLOGY.
Minimalist is how he goes about when bit by bit, the penumbral monstrous
steel-construction of an abandoned industrial ruin appears in the
mechanical monotony of resonating feedback-loops and stolid muffled
beats. Debris of clanging metal and crumbly noise cover the ground, the
walls of the corroded workshop answer each step with a multiple echo.
Very slowly a harmonic crescendo illuminates the room, bathing it in the
sunny glow of warm, comforting pads and touching it with the soft summer
breeze of glittering arpeggios.

What you are normally likely to encounter during an arts-performance, is
what this ep achieves solely by means of sound. So creating and changing
environments, generating and conveying new sensations of space is
possible in a different way.
But who would ever have doubted that you can trust Brian Eno.
