Reviews:

Uylo

I’m usually pretty good at not judging a book by its cover, but I’ll be honest, even I was a bit fooled this time around. Looking at the album art I expected an edgier genre, somewhat pop-rockish, perhaps even industrial, and definitely full of vocals. I did correctly guess that the cover featured a photo of Christiaan Virant himself, but I was deeply mistaken [and pleasantly surprised] at the content within Fistful Of Buddha. The music on the album is closer to the ambient and modern classical genres I adore, so where exactly did this come from? Although Virant is a brand new name to my collection, I already own some of his albums as prized and treasured possessions! You see, along with Zhang Jian, Virant is a founding member of FM3, a Beijing-based duo responsible for the beloved Buddha Machine soundboxes. The similar themed Fistful Of Buddha is Virant’s first solo full-length release and he immediately gratifies all my hungry emotions. Released on the mysterious CVMK label, the music is deep, atmospheric and very dramatic – a sound which can not be contained within a tiny battery-powered plastic box. There are plenty of reflective rhythms and soundscapes, but unlike the short twenty-second lo-fi loops, the sounds of each track unfold to their grandeur and lush spectrum over the course of four-plus minutes. “Whilst still deeply Zen in mood and tone, the tunes here interweave minimal textures through drone and drift.” Don’t pass this up!
