All Genres > Electronic > Soundscapes > URM: Synthphonics 2

SYNTHPHONICS 2 - Hush On The Peace Terrain is the second in a series of ambient soundscapes by URM, a sound exploration project created by Jamie Todd of dreamSTATE.

This second release of synthphonics features five ambient looping soundscapes ranging in mood from dark to light which were created between May 2001 and January 2002 by applying the synthphonics process to the Propellerhead's Reason 1.0 software rack of synthesizers, sequencers, samplers and efx.

Synthphonics is a sound exploration process developed by Scott M2 and Jamie Todd of dreamSTATE which randomly weaves looping synthesized parts into an evolving texture.

These ambient textures are ideal for chilling and spacing or for being the soundtrack for introspective and creative pursuits.


"Jamie Todd of dreamSTATE returns with the second volume in his Synthphonics series, "Hush on the Peace Terrain". Utilizing the Reason software system, Jamie has created a lush and emotional series of soundscapes linked conceptually by recent world events.
Unlike it's predecessor, "Hush..." uses shorter pieces of differing thematic natures to tell it's story, and while maintaining a link in terms of sound, each piece retains a distinct personality and identity indicative of a particular instant. From the quiet movement of "Dawn" into the shifting and evolving darkness of "Pillars Crumble Into Chaos", through to the slow pulse of closing track "New American Century", "Hush on the Peace Terrain" brilliantly captures the effects that current events have had on all of us. A very moving collection of songs, and a very impressive addition to the Synthphonics series."
