Synthetic Dreams:
Looking for something original on mp3.com, I've found your site.
I listened to your stuff and I can say that it was great! I liked
it, really! :) Your "Void" is cool! I liked it most. I don't know
why, maybe because of the great atmosphere of this track... I
can feel the music in "Void" and it's awesome! THNX 4 your music!
Modern
Dance: Oleum, better known perhaps as
Barry Williams, is a five track album, kicking off with Spilth.
With the exception of the dazzling blast that initiates the piece,
this is one of the gentlest and dare I say the most ambient works
I have heard yet on the label. Eno’s ghost wanders freely through
the aural shadows generated amongst derelict dyeworks as images
fall on a prevailing wind. Cumulus Over Halkyn, again, is a beautifully
produced ambient drone that is saved from monotony by an undercurrent
of subtly changing ghostly harmonics - the overall effect is so
relaxing, and I never thought I’d be saying that about ANYTHING
on FfC! Deep Yellow Harbour is similar in structure to Cumulus
in that it builds slowly and remains a constant with subtle underpinning.
For any of you out there who’re getting a little anxious, the
menace and darkness often found on many FfC gear, is on Fog Hollow.
A rich, menacing, almost Evil Dead soundtrack with fractures in
reality seeping through your speakers, dragging you screaming
into the nothingness - brown pants time. Appropriately, the last
track, Void, is a truly different ‘sound’ (again) for FfC. It’s
more like something from Tangerine Dream on acid. A lively and
energetic piece and whilst it doesn’t last 2 minutes, you know
you’ve been taken somewhere, and just, only just, made it back.

Stigma:
I was just browsing through the UK artists and I found you, wicked
stuff mate!! I kept worrying about what all these Americans were
doing around mp3.com + I never had time to look at what people
from my own country are doing!! I'm glad I looked now cause some
of your electronica is and would be ideal for the partys down
my way!! Anyway Keep this PHAT shit up! And I'll cya around.
HOTH(e)::
this is a beautiful piece [Spilth]
Aquarius
Records: This is probably the most laid
back record on Fflint, but that's not to say it isn't still intense
and incessant. Tranquil soundscapes (processed field recordings
made in North East Wales) are mixed with pulsing synths, bells
and chimes, and warm drones, making for a soothing and dark and
an amazingly beautiful record.

I´m enjoying your music so far........I hope you will never stop
making such a great art.
Phrygia:
Watch as the cyclic tundra plays out its natural role of cleanse,
fold, manipulate. 0leum, the man with the scratched face, seems
to penetrate the realm of hypnosis, a feat regarded as being of
the utmost importance to us here in the Land of Phrygia Subliminal
Comandeering and Impassé Recognition Control Team. What for, you
might implore? Implore you might, but unless you are completely
dense and full of chalk, you would notice that we used the word
"subliminal". And not even in a subliminal sense. Yuk yuk. But,
what I'm getting at is we have very strong emotions that are easily
triggered by the audio source we encounter, whether we know it
or not, we are constantly driven by the message and meaning in
music to find out more about ourselves. Since you are there, and
we are here, our relationship is one that is rather impersonal,
yet we are having discussions without you having any REAL input.
Relating an experience that I or we here in the Land of Phrygia
have encountered while listening to Brian Eno, Robert Fripp, and
now 0leum is of such a personal nature that it can't quite be
done. The feeble attempt at me explaining what happens to your
psyche when you experience this track of over-under strata chords
will pale in comparison to what you actually experience. Get all
this guy's music before he disappears with the other species.
