The second date at Le Trompe L’oiel in Paris is represented by this continuous hour-long recording. With drifting sonorous notes wreathed in an analogue sizzle, the first thirty minutes are concerned with creating a slow-but-steady space. Only then does the guitarist begin to introduce a sequence of bass-end notes, which if not exactly darker in tone, are certainly more ominous in character. The change in key at around the 39 minute mark sees Fripp shifting into the end game. Although tiny jagged barbs appear and briefly multiply, this hint at a choppier direction is quickly abandoned in favour of calmer seas. A serene and hauntingly beautiful concert. Highly recommended.

In any case, there are beautiful and engaging ambient pieces, some of the best of the Frippertronics downloads.

It’s hard to identify with the image of an arrow even if itpoints only to the application we make of it. But then, meandering does not guarantee thought either though it simulates its course toward wider angles,...
