Following on from the magnificent 'Quiet City' album for
Kranky (to this day one of the biggest selling titles on
Boomkat), Mark Nelson finally returns with a new album
under the Pan American moniker - and it's another triumph
of sublime understatement.
"For Waiting, For Chasing" is underpinned by delicately
caressed and manipulated Flugelhorns, Tibetan Singing Bowls
and Chinese Cymbals, processed, weaved and loved into a
throbbing mass of neon loveliness. Opening Love Song
unfolds with a gentle cacophony of whirrs - like crickets
trapped in a jar - juxtaposed with the most ethereal layers
of ambience tripping over each other to create a cloud of
harmony; this is absolutely classic Pan American territory.
Nelson never confines his music to simple ambience,
moulding in noisier elements which work as a counterpoint
to the warm tones of the Tibetan Singing Bowls and
synthesized whisps - a conceit which manages to keep his
work ever-contemporary when so many of his past peers have
been stuck in an endless loop of repetition.
A work of calming restraint, it's really impossible to
fault this musician and his ability, with this album, to
craft another perfectly-formed microcosm of bliss.
Essential purchase.
