Reutoffin Kreuzung-kollaboraatiosarja jatkuu Troumin kanssa tehdyllä osalla, joka perustuu Hildegard von Bingenin kosmologiaan. Kreuzung Zwei on tehty kokonaisuudessaan niin että Reutoff on tarjonnut raaka-aineet, josta Troum on säveltänyt kokonaisuuksia, lisäten omia mausteitaan. |

Troum ja Reutoff sulavat yhteen todella kauniina alkemistisena reaktiona ja lopputulos hipoo taivaallista valoa, mutta voi olla monille häikäisevää kirkkaudessaan. Kenties tuleva vinyylipainos on oleva korvillemme armollisempi? John Björkman |

Reutoffs series of collaborations titled ”Kreuzung” continues with a part two, the collaborator being Troum, and source of inspiration the cosmology of Hildegard von Bingen. Kreuzung Zwei has been composed by Troum, of sources provided by Reutoff. For friends of Troum there will be one potentially significant disturbing factor: the band has been experimenting with a sharper and clearer sound, thus Kreuzung Zwei lacks Troum´s trademark analogue fuzz. At least for my ears it often becomes too bright and too thin. If this factor can be looked aside from, however, I can promise a true collaboration masterpiece, perhaps the finest of Troum´s numerous collaborations. The whole is seamless – two styles melt together in perfect celestial harmony. And celestial spheres is what this music reflects. Two tracks are particularly impressive – the sonorously ethereal Creatura per creaturam continetur and the more rhythmic Ignis lucidus. Troum and Reutoff melt together in a beautiful alchemic reaction, and the end result touches heavenly light, but can be blindingly bright for some. Perhaps the coming vinyl edition will me more merciful for our ears? John Björkman |
