Gert Emmens
Live: A Long Way From Home
CDR / 5 tracks / 72.12 mins

This limited edition of 200 is a recording from Gert's E-Live festival performance on September 27, 2003. The best three tracks (all but the title track) from his Obscure Movements in Twilight Shades CD are included, as well as two compositions from Return to the Origin featuring Ruud Heij on sequences. Incidentally, Ruud is one of the most talented and possibly underappreciated electronic musicians working today in the Berlin school scene. He has worked with Free System Projekt and Patchwork and now Gert, and everything he touches sounds awesome.

The brisk hypnotic sequencing on 'So Long' and 'Solaris' are nothing short of fantastic. These two numbers sound a quite a bit like Kubusschnitt, very much a plus in my book. Personally, I find this collection an even more solid set than Obscure Movements, and well worth having even if you already own it and Return to the Origin. If any of the 200 copies are left, snag one. Well done Emmens and Heij. (© 2004 Phil Derby / Electroambient Space / Synth Music Direct)
