Friends! As you already know, Thomas Jansson (Tau Ceti) is the most respected performer in my entire history. So now each of his releases becomes a very significant event for me, which I want to tell you about in all its colors. Well, now it's the turn of his "Unknown Origin 2" selection, published on July 08 at Bandcamp, mainly consisting of songs released at different times on the SoundCloud streaming service. Well, when listening to this long-play, you can be surprised at how diverse Thomas's work is, how he can "play on contrasts", combining tracks that don't seem to be very compatible with each other! And in my brief review, I especially mention these:
- The Vecto Galaxy opens it. It is worth saying here that the musician, putting it at the very beginning of the compilation, made the right choice, because it creates the proper mood, and inspires me to continue my journey through his Cosmo-world, gradually delving into it and painting luminous pictures of distant beauties in my imagination;
- Then the attention switches to an interesting "coupling" of three heterogeneous gizmos, namely: the generally cheerful & mobile Intergalactic Traveller, which "tells" us about the celestial traveler; the slow and somewhat romantic Höst, which creates the mood of the "golden" deciduous season; and the exciting, stirring The Cosmic Winds about light streams flowing from both the Sun and other stars.
- And the next "coupling" turned out to be more harmonious, because it brought together, perhaps, the coolest themes from the early work of the Swedish producer. These are the Explorers Of Oberon, which I have heard many times (it's about explorers of an attractive celestial object), and the magnificent Sunset, which reminds of how wonderful this evening spectacle can be, & the glorious majestic Spacekraft, a music lover's dream come true, a real super hit of the composer (of course, within the framework of the Spacewave genre)!
- There is also Triton, a track about the largest moon of Neptune, which blows a chill, and a dedication to the Viking 2 spacecraft, which was sent to Mars in 1975 & reached the orbit of the planet in 1976, and, of course, Atmosphere, which evokes thoughts about various phenomena occurring in the heights.
- Well, the final pair of works is another example of the diversity of the artist's creativity. The energetic and vivid Travelers Of The Stellar Ocean about space tourists is contrasted with the soft and cozy The Night Sky, listening to which it is so pleasant to dream of something very good and warm.
In general, this collection became a logical continuation of the composer's chosen style, and thus he confirmed his high status in my history. I even got the impression that he was able to "read my mind" in some way, because I really repeatedly thought that he should combine tracks from SoundCloud into one album. And finally Thomas did it, making me really happy, for which I am immensely grateful to him! So I wish him to release many more bright, amazing themes, follow his guiding star and always be in demand as a producer! May his tracks be much loved and become the property of eternity!
