Paul Ellis

FROM OUT OF THE VAST COMES NEARNESS

Lotuspike

2011

In this album, composer and synthesist Paul Ellis treads a further path into one of the most personal, fascinating sides of his style.

Ellis has always had very clear traits of artistic identity which make his music unmistakable and have a lot to say about his refreshing originality.

Although more or less associated to such music trends as Space Sequencer Music and Minimalism, Ellis incorporates other elements in his music as well, and as can be appreciated in many parts of "From out of the Vast Comes Nearness", he makes rhythm into melody and melody into rhythm, in such a way that the music arises as a perfect, enchanting whole, capable of powerfully attracting the attention of any music lover who is looking for uncommon musical ideas.

This disc deserves an attentive listen, and with each hearing, elements not previously perceived keep emerging, as if each one of the compositions were a kaleidoscope.
