THN086 >> GATE ZERO - RADIO OVER BOARD
      [02.05.2006 | ENVIRONMENTAL MUSIC]


From Düsseldorf, Germany, hails Gate Zero who introduces 
himself to Thinner with his first own solo release on Thinner 
after the compilation debut on THN070 Crossways. The playing 
time of the tracks immediately reveal that these 9 tracks are 
quite compact and might look sketchy at times, however they 
are straight on the point and fill the playing time with a 
lot of content. Altough released not before today, these 
tracks are a little older viewed from the production date. 
More music from Gate Zero can be heard on Stadtgrün Netlabel 
and on Fax +49-69/450464.

Music wise these tracks are a little difficult to associate to 
any particular genre, which is a delicate factor. Pete Namlook 
from the Fax +49-69/450464 Ambient label characterized the 
styles of Gate Zero as "environmental music" - a description 
that comes very close on this release aswell, from our point 
of view. You will barely find any classic resemblings or 
reproductions of any concrete styles - all of it is the 
product of the multiple influences that are crusing within 
the musical mind of Gate Zero, waiting for destillation in 
tracks like 'Crossing The Channel' or 'Moonlight Bath'.

The common factor of it all is atmosphere, would it be a 
shattered one as in 'Take My Breath' or a more loungey as in 
'Loop The Vibe'. Then Gate Zero adds minimalistic percussive 
elements placed on top of variable beats and unusual loop 
points. This melange of elements and the short playing time 
of the tracks make it all to an interesting listening 
environment, where also classical instruments as the piano 
and guitar is utilized.

The title 'Radio overBoard' itself is a rather critical 
reflection of the commercializing and disembowling attitude 
of the music industry towards electronic music trends. Scouts 
pick up the interesting genres and begin to set up 
compilations of lousy selection quality that no one really 
needs, compilations that more pollute the music market then 
enrich it from the critical point of view. Thus the radio 
nearly lost it's entire function as a transmitting device of 
exciting new music trends. Today the streamed content is a 
blatant body full of adverts to get the people buy the new 
products, where quality does not decide but furthermore the 
largest marketing budgets behind. Therefore, listening to 
radio has become obsolete - today it can be thrown overBoard.
