Greg Fenton reviews Light Conductor – Sequence Three – CST193
This is a strange, self-defining album that plugs itself into an electronic mainframe, drawing on a past steeped in rich musical tradition while projecting a fizzy, radical future into hi‑fi clarity.
These ideas course through the music in intense, shape-shifting ways — voices are reimagined, motifs bent into new forms, and synthesised landscapes open onto time‑and‑space‑themed vistas. As the final chapter in a three‑album sequence, it carries a sense of history in the classic machines driving its impulses, while the collaboration behind it pushes those tools toward something newly imagined.
The closing track, Supercontinent, delivers the album’s most bombastic moment, a widescreen burst of energy. In contrast, the opener She Glitters The Dust leans into delicacy — soft rhythms, glowing melodies, and pulsing drum machines that hint at the album’s dual nature proving to be its inate core strength.
Release: September 25
