SOUNDICIAN

Soundician had been in our minds for some time. However, the reality of Soundician came about in 2000, when we produced our own website and posted our first pieces up onto the net. We have no formal musical training or background and we havent been in any other bands. All our music is written, recorded and produced by ourselves in our tiny backroom studio.

The Story so far...

SOUNDICIAN

Released 2000

" Soundicians' debut is a charming record of inspired and inspirational music...textures range from smooth waves of sound to more rough patches, melodic and sometimes quirky... at other times, mellow and meditative.."

Richard di Santo - Incursion Music Review - 2000

"...challenging so not as to be the latest ear candy...this is some tasty stuff, brimming with shadowy darkness, sexy rhythms and a velvet smooth assortment of sensuous synths..."

Bill Binkleman - Wind and Wire - 2000

" This is a worthy adventure and a viable candidate for best newcomer..."

Jim Brenholts - Ambient Visions - 2000

THE BEAUTY IS KNOWING...

Released 2002

" Soundicians' eclectic music leads to shimmering horizons of ambient / space ... they dare to challenge and delve into more darker not so easy territories with an experimental angle. Overall the music shifts between lighter shades, lingering all by its own, clinging together in very bright outstanding sound production quality."

Bert Strolenberg - KLEM - 2002

"...without being poppish, ethereal without being cloying and using electronic rhythms in inventive and clever ways......Recommended."

Bill Binkleman - Wind and Wire - 2002

" this wonderful CD is a gem, worthy of inclusion in many 'Best of the Year' lists"

Jim Brenholts - Ambient Visions - 2002

TRANQUILICITY

Released 2003

" ... these two display an integrating melodic sensibility with more overt electronic music elements to yield such sweet selections that alternatively twinkle, shine, float, bounce and soar. To my ears no-one else is making music that exhibits the same kind of cross hybridization with such a degree of quality and sincerity. Soundician are both unique and talented."

Bill Binkleman - Wind and Wire - 2003

"..a special melange of rather challenging ambient music. The exquisite production and mixing skills of Keith again make it a joy to listen to.Tranquilicity offers something for every fan of nowadays ambient music, so make sure to give this CD or soundbites of it a listen"

Bert Strolenberg -2003

SEVEN SISTERS

Released 2004

"...brilliant...beautiful...and soul cleansing"

Karen Larsen - Earthtones - WERU -FM- Maine - USA

"...another jewel in the crown...."

Captain Christopher - Phoenix Flight - WTUL - New Orleans - USA

"...different, interesting, innovative and beautiful..."

Francisco Manuel Lopez - La Otra Orilla - RADIO DESPI - Spain

"their grasp of the structure and vocabulary of intelligent ambient music is firm, and their albums are positive, enjoyable and beautiful. Enjoy this album, let it wash over you and join the seven sisters in their dance."

Jeremy Keens - Ampersand Etcetera - 2004
