øjeRum – The Limited Circle Is Pure (Album – Cyclic Law)
Genre/Influences: Cinematic, Experimental.
Format: Digital, CD.
Background/Info: Paw Grabowski has released an endless number of productions over the past fifteen years. The Danish project appears to be a real label shopper but now strikes back to Cyclic Law unleashing an extended, single, track entitled “The Limited Circle Is Pure”.
Content: The track holds you in its grip for 30 minutes. The Ambient mood is built up from a quiet, abyssal, sound canvas which has been progressively joined by discrete, extra, sound treatments.
+ + + : øjeRum injects a kind of mysterious, relaxing, touch to the dark label roster of Cyclic Law. It however has a visual strength creating surreal images which are totally matching with the front cover of the work.
– – – : Just a single track isn’t a major problem but it rapidly starts to sound linear. I’m missing diversity.
Conclusion: øjeRum remains hard to label and hard to catch.
Best songs: “The Limited Circle Is Pure”.
Rate: 6½.

Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
