5.0 out of 5 stars This album is where you go when you've heard everything., November 28, 2004

This album is fantastic. Most of us tire from the cookie-cutter music that is out nowadays, and this album is such a departure from that that its refreshing and soothing. Sometimes we just want to listen to "pure" music, no vocal accompaniment; to give us a chance to focus on the message of the MUSIC not the lyrics. I've listened to Tim Story ever since Search for Angels, and have bought Beguiled and The Perfect Flaw. Both of these are fantastic albums, but the addition of Roedelius and his electronic mastery make this album come out on top. If at first you listen to the album and think that it's "haunting," think again. Listen again. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

4.0 out of 5 stars An Enjoyable and Original CD With a Distinct Sound, January 1, 2004

Attracted by favourable reviews of this album, I was nevertheless, somewhat apprehensive as to whether this album would appeal. I need not have worried.
I find the music on this CD very difficult to describe. I guess piano with added electronic effects sums it up. The nearest composer to compare the music on this disc to that I am familiar with is Patrick O'Hearn.
The album has a sort of raw quality about it. The piano, far from being crisp and sharp, has a distant feel to it. The music for the most part is very engaging, and I particularly enjoyed Tracks 1 and 4. It is indeed very pleasant when the cello joins the piano on the opening track.
I've seen the accompanying video for Track 4 on television, and it is very surreal. The two compliment each other very well.
Certainly different from my normal musical diet, I enjoyed the experience nonetheless, and I recommend this to nay music lover who wants to try something a little bit different. I'm confident existing fans of Tim Story will lap this up.
Worth checking out.

5.0 out of 5 stars His Best Collaboration to Date, January 20, 2005

Having worked with Tim on several projects, I must admit that his work with Hans-Joachim Roedelius is rather stunning; even some what more interesting then our output to date.

Lunz is a fine collection of 12 suspense filled, angular pieces. There are plenty of wistful moments as well as out right beautiful pieces. This collection of music is full of form and ambiguity. I highly recommend this CD, whether you are a Tim Story fan, a devotee of Cluster, or Roedelius' solo work.
