Autumn's Apple

Editorial Reviews
About the Artist
Michael Allison has been making ambient, electronic & experimental music for over 20 years now and he's been lucky enough to work with some of the finest musicians on the planet. Though he now works primarily alone, the influence of those great artists is ever present in his music.  

"Since the early years of Nona Hendryx & Zero Cool, China Shop and ultimately Empty House I've enjoyed working with experimental sounds and eclectic pop compositions. Having been a bass player most of my career I decided to switch to synthesizers in order to realize my ideas more clearly."

He generally creates his  pieces using sound loops at varying lengths. Sometimes searching for that gorgeous lost chord for hours before landing upon a certain gem and then proceeding to incorporate rhythms and melodies that suggest a certain nuance or dreamlike emotion mostly resembling the sort of music he heard in his head as a young boy.

Product Description
The long awaited release of darshan ambient's sequel to The Zen Master's Diary is here. Although not so much a concept album as the previous recording, Autumn's Apple is a dedication to family, children and love of tradition. There is a very different feel to Autumn's Apple that can be traced to Allison's love of soul records he collected as a child. That and a very distinct chill-out lounge flavor of the CD give this release a fascinating meld of soul-groove and ambient electronica. Also features the talents of Jeff Kowal (Terra Ambient) on guitar.

Autumn's Apple,Darshan Ambient,lotuspike llc,Ambient, floating, ethereal chords and melodies with some laid-back electronic grooves.

5 out of 5 stars Allison pulls off a remarkable feat........2005-01-26

Autumn's Apple
Darshan Ambient
Lotuspike

First things first. I mean talk about big shoes to fill!?! I gushed over the organic, multi-instrumental, world-ambient artistry of the inaugral Lotuspike release, The Gate by Terra Ambient, so my expectations were very, very high going into Autumn's Apple by Darshan Ambient(Michael Allison).

Would this record create its own voice? A voice as memorable and penetratingly original, as its label's predecessor?

In a word, yes.

In fact, I walk away firmly believing--I suspected as such on Darshan Ambient's self-released gem The Zen Master's Diary--but now I can honestly say: No ambient artist out there today has better understood and internalized the most influential ambient record of all time (IMHO), Brian Eno's 1978 release Ambient I: Music for Airports then Michael Allison.

This kind of discreet precise approach to note selection and soundscaping cannot be taught. And Allison demonstrates this once again with his simply virtuosic playing and composing on this release; not a single note on it is wasted or excessive.

What is even more impressive is that this is by no means Eno-redux (i.e., boringly minimalist music that drones on and on like musac). To the contrary, Allison caresses the listener with luminescent notes that circulate in, around, and through very dynamic, percussion infused arrangements...

One of the many pitfalls of this kind of music, of course, is that the rhythmic elements can swamp the piano thus undermining what is truly ambient about the work (I have heard many releases when this is the case and the songs invariably become forgettable and thus forgotten in the heap)...

Instead, Allison pulls off a remarkable feat: Each and every track, and thus the work as a whole, accomplishes a wonderfully balanced rhythmic and atmospheric ambience. But more than a demonstration of impressive technical skill, the sounds that emanate from the core of Autumn's Apple feel effortless.

A few specifics about each of Autumn's Apple's 9 tracks:

Autumn's Apple begins with "Azure Day," a composition of slowly evolving tone-scapes and an accompanying high hat that morphs into a groovier beat loop that itself expands. The conga-like percussion lends a nice organic feel that carries the listener into the twinklingly seductive daylight--a sky of deep azure, indeed.

"Deep Garden" has a wonderfully Enoesque opening of slow piano progressions. Once again the high hat that blossoms into a thickly layered backbeat propulses us forward deep into the garden's lush landscape. The synth, however, stays patiently focused--it breathes, disappears, and then reappears seemlessly throughout the mix. Allison really demonstrates his brilliant composer's ear on this track.

"Pastorale" is simply a beautiful track. I won't even try to spoil it with words. It is just too mesmerizing and must be experienced to be appreciated.

"Acre of Sun" starts with a very funky back beat that grows and then snakes around the patient twinkling of Allison's keys. The wonderful contrast between observation and movement is clearly realized once again.

"Sea Stars for Tristen" is the album's most epic sounding piece: Allison's tribute to his newborn son. The observation-movement dynamic remains: A proud father cradles his lightly sleeping newborn son. A feeling of wonderous awe.

"Rain Parade" opens with a nice tight, in-the-pocket back beat. The metallic, breathy drones grow slowly forward. The melody on this track may be as strong as "Pastorale." I'm undecided. The rhythmics are also quite fascinating on tis track: the stutters fall forward like rain drops against glass.

Listening to "Pebble in My Shoe" creates a very interesting sensation: I find myself both relaxing and tapping my foot. This track also has very effective bridge section--it is somehow constantly rhythmic and spacious at the same time.

The title track opens with soft blurps of atmospheric synth that slowly evolve into something much bigger: Life's inescapable inertia. We are constantly changing "colors" and nature is as well: Autumn. As the backbeat builds and propulses along with a lovely melody we, the listener, are reminded of this pronounced time for growth and change--from seed to tree to flower to apple. Allison's ode to the changing colors of this inescapable passage on the seasonal cycle is at once heartfelt and toe tapping.

The last track "Man in the Window" in many ways is an accurate reflection of the album as a whole. Here, Allison takes a very daring step for an ambient artist: He lends his soft, throaty Peter Gabrielesque vocals to the mix. I admit that I went into listening to this track just waiting on the edge of my chair to shake my head at the trite, new agey cliche that I thought would follow.

Surprisingly, these preconceptions were mistaken.

Allison uses his vocals very purposefully to add an additional layer of emotive resonance to the mix. In essence, the vocals on this track may be thought of as providing one perspective--the man looking out through the window. Taken together, the vocals behind "the glass" and the wide open sonic landscapes that the piano creates in front of it combine to form the song's central narrative: The relationship of man to the physical world. We, the listener, are both behind and in front of the glass that opens to these picturesque, beautiful vistas.

"The Man in the Window" succeeds because it, like the other eight tracks on Autumn's Apple, are heartflet infusions of sonic poetry.

Autumn's Apple is heartfelt poetry-in- effortless-motion. A poetry that does not shy away from its inspirations; the birth of Allison's son, Tristen, being Autumn's Apple's most audible. Strongly recommended to those who truly appreciate virtuosic ambient artistry and songmanship. ****1/2 (out of *****)

5 out of 5 stars One of my favorite records.......2005-04-18

I'm buying the CD now to replace my very-scratched LP. I'm no connoisseur of vocal music, but I am a big guitar fan (and player) and a Taoist, so "Big Chariot" speaks most eloquently to me... but the entire "Songs from the Chinese" set from Britten was a trememdous discovery to me the first time I heard the LP many years ago. And, as a bonus, you have those great ribald songs on it, like "To Couple is A Custom". Overall, a fabulous, unique find if your tastes run to voice+guitar+sense of humor.

4 out of 5 stars the britten is okay, but the rest is much better.......2003-06-21

most people will get this cd for britten's songs from the chinese, nocturnal for solo guitar, and the folk song arrangements included here, but these works are not among his best. the nocturnal is a little too verbose, and the arrangements of the folk songs aren't particularly distinctive. the chinese cycle is worthwhile, although certainly not up to the caliber of winter words or the michelangelo sonnets cycle. still, all three have moments worth hearing, particularly among the slower sections. examples include "the autumn wind" in the songs from the chinese and the first movement, "musingly", of the nocturnal.

along with these works by britten, the disc also includes other songs for guitar and voice and these are what make the disc worth getting. bream is ideal and masterful. i believe this is one of pears' later recordings, and he gets a little too carried away at times (for example, at the end of "i gave her cakes"), but he really shines in the pensive, lyrical songs of each cycle presented here, recalling his role as peter grimes. of particular note are his performance in seiber's french folk song arrangements, the first half of the walton cycle, the second lute song from britten's gloriana, and the fricker setting of shakespeare.

the sound has a few spots of static where the vocal was too loud, but they may have been present on the original recording. the liner notes don't include any of the texts, which is a pity, nor is the nocturnal divided into 8 tracks for its 8 movements. still, all in all, worth having if you're a pears or bream fan, and if you're a fan of britten you probably have this disc already.

      5 out of 5 stars Too beautiful for words.......2004-05-25

      If Julian Bream's recordings were letters, his would all be hand written rather than typed.

      5 out of 5 stars Guitar History.......2004-02-15

      Julian Bream not only plays the guitar, and the lute
      (although purists and I suspect Bream himself would say rather unconventionally), but most of all, Bream plays MUSIC. This is very, very important. There are many fine guitarists around today, but I doubt any could match Bream's sheer musicality when these recordings were made.
      This 28 CD box set is a lesson in music making, regardless of what instrument is being played. The recordings are the complete RCA Bream catalogue from 1959 to 1989. If you can find the complete box set or even any of the individual volumes, I suggest you make the purchase. (Shame on RCA and BMG for not keeping this box set and "all" the individual volumes in print.)
      Some of the higlights of Breams remarkable talent are his
      interpretations of Britten's "Nocturnal", Walton's "Five Bagatelles", the instrumental and vocal works (with tenor Peter Pears) of Dowland, the "first" complete guitar works of Villa-Lobos, a thorough history of the guitar in Spain from the Renaissance to the Present on period instruments, plus all the works that have become classical guitar standards by Bach, Sor, Giuliani, Albeniz, Rodrigo, plus the "new" standards by Brouwer, Arnold, Berkeley, Britten, Walton, etc.
      Music making of this caliber is rare indeed. Buy it if you can find it. Good Luck !

      5 out of 5 stars Best deal there is!.......2002-05-06

      If you can find this set buy it fast. There are not to many of these left out there. This has it all. Plus Julian Bream is the greatest guitarist of all time.

      5 out of 5 stars Most excellent.......2001-08-18

      This a an wonderful collection of Julian Bream. He is the master of master . I always admire his talent as a genius of this centure.

      5 out of 5 stars Julian Bream, The Genius.......1999-01-09

      Who don't want to have a wonderful classical guitar collection? Well, this pack consists in 28 CDs, more than 1.000 minutes of music, distribuited by different titles as Baroque Guitar, Spanish Guitar, etc. Some highlights are here, like Asturias, Fernando Sor variations on Mozart's Magic Flute, Paganini Grand Sonata, all Preludes and Etudes of Villa-Lobos, and, well, lots of really good things. Also, there are some cds Julian Bream plays Guitar with Orchestra, or with Harpsichords. Ah, he plays lute in some too. Unfortunately, there are 2 or 3 cds where a tenor sings and another which a woman says some poems, and those, in my opinion, are not very nice. So, it's a good collection, and if you can, buy it!!
