MARA'S TORMENT
"ACROSS FOR SHOW"
Baby Bat Boy Productions / Rik Maclean
This is an album with remarkable and varied stylistic textures that mix the cosmic Ambient with industrial coldness, or the Techno / Gothic airs with electronic experimentation. The general style of the work can be described as Electronic Music. Anyhow, the themes have different orientations. Some are near to Techno, like for instance "Symmetry" and "Where It Begins"". Others present connections with symphonic Space Music, like for instance "Trances, Dialogues", which has an impressive melody, or "Imagine Me". A definite tendency towards the mysterious pervades the whole album.
