RELEASE DATE
6/2/2023
2014 release. "Matthew Young's genre-bending, acclaimed 1986 release
Traveler's Advisory
reappeared as a reissue on Drag City/Yoga in 2010 and quickly sold out. We now return to Young's first effort,
Recurring Dreams
, dating back to 1981 and the apex of the Eno/Berlin schools' influence over a myriad of American followers. Young created eight EMS/Rhodes pieces solo, subtly weaving in variable-speed Revox manipulation of traditional rock instrumentation with the lightest of touches. As anyone who has heard
Traveler's Advisory
already knows, Matthew Young could never be a mere imitator. What all too often amounted to predictable schtick in the field of early 80s home electronica, Young made personal, delicate, discreet, and discrete. Wordlessly illustrating its titles -- 'Version, Inversion,' 'The Forest Of Lilacs,' and 'Mistral' (a strong, cold, northwesterly wind), Young conjures vivid, progressive tones of the unknown.
Recurring Dreams
requires repeat listenings to fully reveal its Bonsai-like qualities. Fans of Erik Satie, JD Emmanuel, private-issue new age or the more placid side of minimal synth should take note of this one."
