| "'Shadow of the Wind' is a masterpiece of symphonic
electronic music that will remind many of the best works by the Euro Superstars Jarre and
Vangelis... the level of sophistication both musically and instrumentally is stunning.
It’s rare that a relatively new artist comes up with anything this impressive".
(Archie Patterson, Eurock Magazine, USA.) |
|
| "Rich, melodious and soaringly soulful synth, with dare
I say, a female touch ... just listen to tracks like 'Azmara' and 'Hymn (for Her)'.
There's a warmth and sensitivity here that could only come from a woman. Hit me with your
handbag if you like, but it's true". (Ashley Franklin, BBC Radio Derby.) |
|
| "This is warm, melodic EM at its most accomplished.
Bekki's style is a world away from the free-form analogue improvisations of some
contemporary acts, and yet she represents what is probably the most accessible genre of
EM, concentrating on melody and wide-eyed romanticism. Its potential appeal is great and
she could turn out to be AD Music's first big breakthrough. Watch this space". (Steve
Roberts, Sequences Magazine, UK.) |
|
| "This is the second album by Bekki Williams, another
positive step in her career. As in her previous work, rhythms, good melodies and synthetic
sounds are the main traits. This woman really has talent to compose beautiful
melodies". (V. Arenas, Amazings.com, Spain.) |
|
| "The blistering rhythms and anthemic melody line of the
six and a half minute opening track ‘Cartagra’ immediately sends the listener
the message that this is a player with total confidence in her ability to match anything
else in her league. After a very good debut album these 10 tracks over sixty-seven minutes
are a major step forward that run the whole gamut of influences, from classical to rock
with some slight Eastern elements in between. The purposeful rhythm bases from drums,
synths and sequencers add extra power to the overall feel of this album, as does the
extremely well layered and orchestrated symphonic themes, that at times sound like they
could have been part of some orchestral score for an epic movie. There is a distinct
maturity showing with this album. The themes are huge, you won’t get a set of
stronger set of memorable synth melodies and rhythms than these. These are full sounding
and majestic soundscapes that are always tuneful and relatively easy on the ear and yet
exciting to listen to". (CDS, UK.) |
|
| "If you want an example of quality music at the
romantic, symphonic end of the scale then you will not find better than this".
(Graham Getty, SMD Magazine, UK.) |
