Editorial Reviews

The most fantastic modern dub from West Country reclusive genius Ott, whos album really is over the top in quality, depth and shinning brilliance. Spacey strings, chants, otherworldly noises and pertinent samples collide with his massive rub a dub beats and bass. Otts music is a world to its own, a pure undiluted atmospheric world of swirling stoned sound and colour. Indian to Arabic to African Otts dubs are boundaryless and boundless in their, scope and strength. Otts music is a paradox of dub, not stereotypically slow heavy sounds but at once an upbeat dancey dub full of light, world chants and funky beats, while still maintaining a slow and relaxed ambient groove. Following on from his Hallucinogen In Dub album (TWSCD16) for Twisted Records this solo album is a selection of clean hard grooves and the best dub studio skills, echo, delay, phasing, instruments popping up out of the murk and then submerging again, skills of which Ott is a particular maestro. Ott is no stranger to the studio, he has for the last 20 years been producing arranging and recording some of the most famous artists including Sinead O'Connor, The Orb, and Brian Eno. Working in a wide range of the best studios in the land from SARM East and West, Real World, and Ridge Farm to Foel in Wales. He has been interviewed in the producers/engineers bible Sound on Sound and is currently managed by Strongroom Management UK. He continues to work with many famous artists and along his travels has met up with our own master producer Simon Posford aka Hallucinogen, editing Shpongle. After hearing his studio skills Simon commissioned him to make this modern dub album as an antithesis to his own hurtling trance music. The results are as you shall see are startling, a stunning example of modern dub and one that is massive with all dance music and ambient music fans across the globe.

5.0 out of 5 stars Astounding, January 22, 2004
By 
Morgan Hoxie "ziatonic" (Point Pleasant, NJ USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Blumenkraft (Audio CD)
Blumenkraft (or "Flower Power" in German) is the definition of ethereal harmonic perfection. A blissful mix of ambient/chillout/dub/psychedelic/reggae. Blumenkraft has quite a diverse feel. With its rich bass, rhythmic melodies, and at times haunting vocals, Ott pulls you outta the club and out for a ride to the African plane, the islands of the Caribbean and to the misty forests of Asia. Totally awesome and extremely listenable: in the car, chilling out, as background tunes, or to go to sleep. Everyone who has heard me play this cant help but groove to it. If you know what ails you, buy this album.

5.0 out of 5 stars shpongloid psy-ambient-dubilicious, October 24, 2004
By 
Photoleif (colorado, usa) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Blumenkraft (Audio CD)
edit 2009-apr-18: i see now that amazon stocks this title. ignore my earlier comment about its unavailability.

i just bought, downloaded and am very much digging a handful of ott songs (not all on this release): 'smoked glass and chrome', 'splitting an atom', 'mi-loony-um (a floating butterfly stings like a bee)' and 'lsd (world sheet of closed string mix)'. it may not be too kosh to send you folks elsewhere, but seeing that father amazon doesn't stock this title, i'll let you in on a litle secret: audiolunchbox.

if hearing the standard 'if you like shpongle, you'll love ott' doesn't do it for you, go to said website and listen to the samples and become a believer: ott does some awesome stuff. it's truly a breath of fresh air in a very stale roomful of largely thoughtless, unimaginative techno. i eagerly look forward to future releases by this very promising artist.

5.0 out of 5 stars Get a natural high from great music, September 15, 2004
By 
Ambient Lass "Charleyq" (Cedar Hill, TX United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Blumenkraft (Audio CD)
Ethnic Fusion, Ambient Trance and Electronica music delivers the best vibes you can ever get from music. If you are bored with the monotonous over played pop and hip-hop, you will get the ultimate high you need from this album. This album was referred to me because of my love for this type of music and I am more than satisfied every time I listen to it. This is recognizable audio art for the mind.
