His romantic compositions, crafted in the solipsistic confines of Helix Branch studios, frame classical instrumentation in magical realism. Beautiful musical passages, merge and dissolve as unconscious recollections, rendering the listener, a spellbound protagonist.PRESS QUOTESA poetic fusion of classical and electronic musics, Echoes From One To Another sounds like what might result were Akira Rabelais, Arvo Pärt, and The Balustrade Ensemble to spend a month collaborating at a studio in some ancient and secluded castle. Textura - The first verifiable hit from the Japanese Symbolic Interaction imprint, Rudi Arapahoe's Echoes from One to Another is a remarkable avant-classical work. The Silent Ballet - It is impossible to do Echoes From One To Another any favour in just a few words, such is the scope of the project and the mastery of the execution, and one can only partially lift the veil on a piece of work which keeps on revealing new facets with each new listen. The Milk Factory - Arapahoe plays the roles of conductor and composer, utilizing field recordings and antique electronics, while directing a collective of musicians who engage instruments including harp, violin and vintage synthesizers. The effect is somewhat remarkable, as Arapahoe weaves a fabric of forgotten sounds, fusing nocturnal ambiences with noir-classical instrumentation and echo-dappled folk. The fleeting elfin-chanteuse vocals of Kaithlin Howard only add to the mystique surrounding this release. Angry Ape - This is just a monstrously brilliant album. I had no idea what to expect as I hadn't heard anything from it at all and when I put it on it just blew me away. Smallfish - Mixing decayed field recordings with lonesome piano and vocal passages; Rudi Arapahoe creates ghostly, melancholic worlds of dream and hallucination. Raven Sings The Blues - A masterful mix of classical, electronics, field recordings and poetry. Mapsadaisical - As Eve Basilides opens up with strumming of the harp, a distant lo-fi hiss transposes you into a surreal world of shadows and broken dreams. By the time Kaithlin Howard's voice breaks through the reverb and lightly touched piano chords I begin to wonder if the imagery is indeed from my long lost memory. Rudi Arapahoe's spellbinding soundscapes accompany my daydreams into a world of modern classical and magical realism. Headphone Commute - Atmospheric, restful, filmic, above all melancholic and exciting. The music unfolds before you like a lovely dream. An unprecedented beauty! Caleidoscoop - ~ |

Click the above Nochex button to purchase the artwork securely through a credit card (myspace gives an external link warning, however the payment link is secure)* Influences: Helix Branch A distant dream village enshrouded by mist - a settlement that seemed lost among the trees, where I remember spending several days. But precisely because a picture frame was attached to it, it seemed a landscape, and because I was convinced it was a landscape, it became transparent. If the frame was removed, the mist would be quite ordinary. ~ Sounds Like: In a dream I am standing, At the entrance to a forest, Here there are constructed, Numberless arches that radiate light, When I step through them at night, My body floats gently in the air, At this precise moment, When I am on the cusp of sleep, My shadow vanishes, And with it my weight. ~ Meanwhile - The teeth of the I who is in bed at the time begin to grind, The lower half of my body springs up high (like a fish yanked out of water). It makes the bed grind its teeth along with me. A thousand springs, Each with a different tone, Split open like dry wood in a bonfire. The grinding merges into the dream, Echoes from one to another amongst the forest of arches And begins to play a funeral dirge for me. ~ Purgatory Mastering Purgatory is a commercial audio mastering facility run by Rudi Arapahoe. ~ Record Label: Symbolic Interaction Type of Label: Indie |
