Label: Medium Production Total Time: 42'36" Grabber: EAC v0.95 pb5 Codec: Mokeys Audio v3.99 Compression: Eac -> APE -> Cue -> Log Size: 204.05 MB Extras: Covers, Cue, Log A platter of instantly hummable rubbery bass riffs is probably what would prick the ears of many, but instead mick karn has chosen to follow his muse and his heart. As the artist-written sleeve notes suggest, each eye a path is ten highly personal soundscapes, each emitting an emotional atmosphere that is both infectious and melancholic. From any point of view, this is karn's most mature and adventurous work to date. It's not as refined as his earlier albums but that is a good thing, he has left it open-ended and a little ragged in places. Although there are separate pieces with individual titles, the distinctions between each track are somewhat blurred, it melts into one fascinating whole that is extremely filmic. The exception to the rule may be "the forgotten puppeteer", which cradles assorted wind instruments, all recorded at close-mic, inside a four-note piano motif that pulls on the heart strings so strongly it induces tears and thoughts of all that may have gone wrong in past relationships. Admirable is mick's restraint with his signature instrument. He could confirm his existing audience and maybe win new fans by serving up 10 pieces of feta-funk à la "his box" or "bestial cluster" but he seems to actively rebel against that, eager to try something that will challenge himself and the listener. Karn has always struck me as being an intuitive and naïve musician. It is these positive qualities that endear his music to many. Even when he dives head first into water that many feel he shouldn't ("answer" from dreams of reason produce monsters seems to be a common target), the results are so open-hearted and sincere that one cannot help but be moved. This is an album you won't hear on the radio. You should take it in though. Take it into your heart and your mind. It will reward you.
