4.0 out of 5 stars Superb ethno-ambient, November 8, 2001
By 
LGwriter "SharpWitGuy" (Astoria, N.Y. United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Gongland (Audio CD)
Forrest Fang is one of the unsung heroes of world fusion; he's been creating his unique music for well over a decade. He's collaborated on a few occasions with the better known Robert Rich, adding his distinctive eastern sounds on violin to Rich's ambient soundscapes.

On this, Fang's latest work, he continues his forays into ethno-ambient, here with his usual plethora of world music influences, including balalaika, Japanese palm harp, and Indonesian gamelan music, among others. These are all fused with keyboard electronics, which themselves span a wide range of sounds that fully complement the native instruments. Fang is particularly interested in how algorithms can be derived in electronic music--patterns that can be used to generate new patterns.

This is a strong release, and should be heard by anyone interested in where world fusion is going these days.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gongland, August 27, 2005
This review is from: Gongland (Audio CD)
Easily one of the best drone based ambient works ever produced. Gongland is an incredibly layered, complex, hauntingly beautiful album. A must have for every ambient afficianado. Move over, Eno!
