Mohave

Editorial Reviews
Wind And Wire, September/October 1998
While it may take some getting used to by Peccary's electronic music-loving fans, this is a very atmospheric recording, drenched in desert ambience, Native American textures, and Peter Buffett-like cinematic sweeping soundscapes...While the mood here is somber, the music on Mohave is not Steve Roach desert-like ambient. The use of piano and flute and how the synths are used sees to that...Plus, the tribal elements are firmly rooted in Native American rhythms, as opposed to the aboriginal beats of Roach. Finally, you have that Buffett-like fullness of sound (I kept thinking of Buffett's "Lost Frontier" as i listened to Mohave). Mohave offers the discerning listener a rich and complex musical experience...that pays you back if you invest your time and patience.

Product Description
Enter a land of sun-parched earth and spiny unforgiving brush - a land that manifests otherworldly visions haunted by the ancient peoples and creatures of the past. Mohave is the harsh but awe-inspiring mojave desert of the Southwest as revealed through the French-born composer Bertrand Nadel in his debut release. Thundering native drums conjure primordial forces while acoustic guitars, wooden flutes, piano, rattles, and shakers play out the drama of life in the Southwest. Featuring special guest Steve Gorn on wooden flutes.
