about

Dom F. Scab exists on a slightly higher plane than most contemporary synthesizer musicians. That may be because he actually appears to do a bit of sound programming - although there are some terribly mundane sounds, like little xylophones and marimbas in his compositions, there are also swirling, panning, abstract noises which are enticingly beyond description. Churn in a seemingly effortless fusion of symphonic sound and actual composition, and you have a musician who looks back to the days of Vangelis before he mostly gave up synthesizers in favour of symphony orchestras, and Tangerine Dream before they simply gave up...
The opening "After Secrets" sums up this stylistic fusion perfectly; it starts abstract, goes all sequence, but then surprisingly layers big piano and symphonic sounds.
Yet the little indescribable analog effects are still there - it's a real paella of sound. Elsewhere, zither, timpani and other acoustic and orchestral effects layer themselves over the synths and sequences - who knows which if any of them is "real".
If your only experience of Spanish synthesizer music is Michel Huygen and Neuronium, you should be pleased to find that Dom F. Scab is leaving those light years behind, and at under 55 minutes, more than enough for any synthesizer musician to prove himself, the album is endearingly not too long.
