5.0 out of 5 stars Plainsong++, July 6, 2009

For fans of VOX Diadema's near-iconoclastic "Hildegard Von Bingen" chant recomposition style, Rabelais manages to take the essential soul of this idea to new and compelling heights.

The plaintive and deeply moving strains of dissected and recombined vocal phrases here leaves one perpetually mesmerized by its effect. Rabelais' careful and exacting work captures the environment-as-sound method of Eno's "Neroli", but in context of a uniquely human experience.

I've never heard a recording like this one. It seems to have arrived from another dimension of sound, one so pure and mysteriously evocative it elevates the consciousness, as if reminding the listener of another existence.
