Radically
different, this is rich digital melodic music, vaguely
worldbeat, with lots of elements of house and trance added
for good measure. His musical experience includes playing
with such diverse artists as Bill Lswell, Daevid Allen's
Gong, and recoding with members of the Wailers in the famed
Tuff Gong Studio. This coloristic ambiguity is exploited to
magnificent effect using synths, percussion and voice. The
thirteen tracks offer a richly textured and varied
collection culminating with the magnificent "Karna". Doctor
Wise conjures up a potent juju of rastafarian spirits and
dark electronic seasoning suitable for any palette. The
sound is a dense mixture of ethnic rhythms, heavy synthetic
melodies and exotic effects. At times the sound echoes
perhaps the more exotic instrumental moments of A. D. 2, or
vibrates with ethno-trance vibrations. A unique blend
multi-cultural electronics. A great delight!
