about

Spare synth lines are bathed in reverb, offhand loops grow in significance, champagne meditations bubble up through cracks in the plastic. Solo moog pieces for quiet moments, loss & damage.

originally released w/ PINK TRAILS as STUNNED 97
ART BY PHIL FRENCH

"...Deep Moon Time finds Gengras taking it easy for all us sinners. Gone are the feedback doused arrangements and putrid audio infections. Beginning with two dueling clean-toned synth melodies, the piece is immediately more relaxing than the previous half hour. However, MGG hasn't lost his edge, massive sub-bass swells push their way in turning the piece into a thoroughly ominous affair. It's now just a matter of time to see what evil thing will happen. The section segues into a new set of sustained tones, really the first place the tape goes a little drone. From there Gengras constructs melodies out of the ether. Slowly but surely he molds the melodies, eventually whipping them into an improvised synth solo. Gengras just keeps riffing away, against the foggy bass, until the piece drifts away.
The final side continues the vibe of dense, packed bass and single note melodies. An echoing melodic figure treads water before being swept away by the current of other swelling tones. Literally unstable bass rumbles turn up nearly shaking the piece off its hinges. The crashes get louder and sharper moving at a relentless, metered pace for a while before sputtering out. The next piece hits instantly with tangled, thicker-than-usual melodies. And when MGG pulls out the late 70s film score synth lines, man oh man, it's too much. It's a beautiful polyphony that's way too short. The next track attacks you with the sharpest, most brittle synth tone west of the Mississippi. A saturated bass throb hits hard and heavy and we appear to be moving full circle back into the grime of the album's beginning. Cycling on two-note bass waves, a melody cuts its path puncturing the monolith with quick stabs, gradually tearing it away to reveal a beautiful, shining chorus from heaven underneath. This is an epic, epic event.
Gengras has found a luscious and muggy middle ground between analog synth composition and the improvised noise sphere and I can't get enough. Headphones are a must!" - Auxiliary Out

I want to call this ambient, but it’s actually pretty maximalist in places, with clouds of complex overlapping chords with slow attack and long release that seem to hang forever and endlessly mutate. Proper galaxy music speedkermit

Oozing cheese cloth and diaphragmatic exercise. Planned parenthood visits with elderly and newborn crystalline gazers at sharp city whiz-bys. Lofty eagle crooks soaking perniciously as the egg hazmats carefully consider their apron soak pattern. Log cabin ego waffles. TheBloodofChrist
