celer - Panoramic Dreams Bathed In Seldomness
To anyone even passingly interested in drone or ambient music the name Celer has become a byword for all that's finest within these genres. Recorded and mixed between mid 2006 and late 2007, this four-piece, hour-long collection is among the most substantial and sonically varied works within the Celer discography and arrives with a mastering treatment courtesy of 12k boss Taylor Deupree. Apparently billed as a collection of "elliptical love songs", Panoramic Dreams Bathed In Seldomness certainly stretches the parameters of what might be intimated by the term "song", harnessing as it does a lulling stream of consciousness that takes in strings, old synthesizers, tape sounds and a host of dissolved field recordings captured by the late Danielle Baquet-Long during trips to Pakistan, India and Nepal. During the album's first half, the tone of Celer's music switches between the grainy somnambulance of free-flowing opener 'Anticline Rests: Inertia Brace Yourself' and the more studied microsound adventures of 'Collections Of Fogs and Ladling Clarities'. By the end of this latter piece low-end tones begin to exert a melodic influence that seems to cue up the luscious extroversion of 'Who Feels Like Me, Who Wants Like Me, Who Doubts Any Good Will Come Of This'. For this third composition the duo make a blissful, orchestral sound that drifts elegiacally over a too-short twelve minutes. Somewhere between Stars Of The Lid and William Basinski's Disintegration Loops, this has to rank as one of Celer's strongest short-form work to date. Finally, the album bows out with 'How Dead This Ear Of Reason, Beneath The Backlit Sun', a collage of loops and ever so slightly discordant drones that formulates an intoxicating clash of ear-flooding tone and fragmentary melody. Recommended.
