W.A.dePHUL: "WHEN ALIENS MEET A DROP OF WATER" Manikin Records 2008 W.A.dePHUL (Ralf Wadephul) is an experienced musician with excellent skills, not only as a performer but also in the creative arena. He was a member of Tangerine Dream during 1988-1990. In a personal style that enters both Synth-Pop and Contemporary Instrumental Music, the artist offer us a sample of what he is capable of doing. The 13 themes of this CD are very interesting, combining rhythmic structures of sequencer and percussion with romantic melodies and Cosmic traits. In "Praying for rain", the masterpiece of the album in my opinion, the composer utilizes electronics with great imagination, succeeding in creating musical structures far from the most usual trends, and which besides happen to be melodic, bewitching, with a powerful rhythm.
