Artemiy Artemiev - The Warning

Artemiy's first release on Electroshock consists of majestic orchestral keyboard excursions along the lines of Vangelis and mid-70's Tangerine Dream. The music tours through a series of themes, and each movement segues smoothly into the next. Artemiev's keyboards are embellished by some real drums and percussion, and guests on violin and oboe. This is serious image-inducing music and the journey for this listener is one of many moods, the most powerful of which is a great exodus across vast rocky terrains and mountain ranges. The feeling isn't dark, but steps cautiously as it evolves.
