Peinzing – Part 2

Peinzing - Part 2 (2003) is of course the second part of Peinzing (Pondering; Muse-ing). Since both parts are meant to be listened to as one, please download part 1 first and listen to them sequentially. You can find the full comments with Peinzing - Part 1, so for this edition I'll just stick to the playlist.. --- originally published on Ambientblog --- Do nót expect 'New Age' music, despite some whale-, cricket- and other sounds of nature. At times the layers of sounds are dark and threatening, maybe even confronting.There's always the dynamic range between tension and release. The quiet piano sounds of John Cage and Arvo Pärt surround a broad spectrum of auditive landscapes. Inbetween, sometimes 'ordinary' pop-songs define the theme, like Paul Simon's 'Quiet':"I am heading for a time of quiet / When my restlessness is past / And I can lie down on my blanket / And release my fists at last". This particular sequence (Arno Peeter's collage of hectic life's answering machines, Paul Simon's detaching Zen-like song 'Quiet', and Jon Hassell seemingly rephrasing Paul Simon's last vocal line) is one of my all time favourite sequences.
