Notes

Review by Darren Pearson.

1 - Northern Lights - The opening…Mod has a real-talent for painting a soundscape straight from the start, fine example here. Nacho’s love of music vs. the human-soul was clear to me some time ago per our online chats & track-shares in music/social-media world. I'm a big flute-lover here so this track is right up my street, superb blowing from Ramon Reviara. The Asian influence is plain to hear in this track & is something that I put to Nacho recently i.e. you have an uncanny ability to recreate such sounds & so much so, that I had initially thought that MOD were an Asian outfit. That is an admitted generalization but I think it demonstrates very well, just how much talent MOD has in this space. The beats coupled with the use of my beloved flute make this very much a thinking (or Zen as I say) track for these ears. Female vocal is the perfect accompaniment for the soundscape that MOD has created here.

2 - Totality feat. David Phillips & Alvin Mutlu - ...I'm back in Calcutta immediately with this...and purely because of this opening-sequence...thanking you Nacho. The words and narrative are areas that Nacho does well plus, and highly-relevant, we have chatted online deeply about our emotional (as well as physical, yes it true) reactions at times to music. We've spoken in a way that confirms to me that there are many, many such music-lovers whom also have a deep, deep affection for 'the love of the sound'. The flute here is wonderful and the echo only adds to the aural-vision painted. This whole piece is just mystical in its ambition and breadth to me. A wonderful female vocal that fits perfectly, this track could have been made by a musician of Asia descent to my ears & this is something I have mentioned to Nacho previously. Suffice to say, I wasn't surprised when Nacho/MOD told me that this was in-fact, a common piece of feedback/compliment. This is also why we feel that music is the only one true global language as it transcends all cultures, colours & creeds, the wonder of the sound & Nacho has such good aural 'vision'. The wavering of the flute @ 5.15…I think even Nacho would agree with me that this track itself may not have mass-appeal but that does not take any kudos away whatsoever from this piece, it feels most appropriate for this track to be in the company of the other tracks on this album. What an experience on the ears Nacho…wonderful….gracias amigo.

3 - Road of Life (Frontiers of Asia) - Love, love the opening sequence, this is one of those tracks that grabs the ears straight away & makes me curious for what‘s coming next. The use of Flute is sublime & blends so very well with the aural-soundscape 'painted' by Nacho/MOD. Big kudos to the contribution from Jaume Pla Fraj playing the Bansuri here, excellent work. I find this a singular track and by that I simply mean, it reminds me of nothing I have heard before, is unique & therefore stands out to this music-lover because of those attributes. The arrangement is excellent, the atmosphere superb and a bonus is that this is a track that I love to work to at my desk as it both soothes and inspires in a Zen-fashion & aids my process, Zennnnnn. Oh & when the strings appear, then fade into the main wall of sound…delicious, soul-soothing music here. Love the ending too, very well done Nacho/MOD.

4 - Hero's (featuring Candela Ghelfi) - A great reworking of a classic Bowie track. I think this absolutely does justice to the original as well as enhance & showcase the song in a whole new-light. I love such reworking's of classics so was pleasantly surprised to hear such a track from MOD as it was most unexpected but show’s good range & is a good idea. Saying this as this piece really adds a whole new dimension to this classic in-terms of tempo, female-vocal and the excellent use of guitar. Although a reworking, this is a very distinctive piece of work in its own right I feel. If a listener did not actually know the original (do such people actually exist! :D ) then this is arguably the greatest homage that one artist can pay to another’s work. Short but very, VERY sweet, well done Nacho/MOD and Candela Ghelfi and a fantastic contribution from Victor Espluges on guitar.

5 - Restless Soul – The opening guitar oh…hypnotic & melodic, wonderful slow-build, a wonderful instrumental piece. The guitar work here is excellent & sounds so very well both against and with the soundscape painted by Nacho/MOD. I’m a big believer in a piece without a vocal being just as credible and powerful as one with, always have, always will. This piece makes that point very well in my humble view although I must confess, I do love this track.

6 - Melodies of beyond (feat. Josephine Sweet - Sax! What a unique opening. This is a piece of music that ebbs & flows on the mind & soul. The use of synths and vocal is a perfect combination on this track, all elements work very, very well together. Very much enjoyed the change & complete stoppage of sound @4.30 and the bleed back-in of all, sax playing and then, the vocal drops...superb creativity to my ears & also slightly reminiscent of some Moby tracks at that very point but no poor imitations here. Love such creativity, not many can do this as well as Nacho/MOD has done here, well done. The ending is so crisp & clean too, I had such a wonderful early morning audio experience when I first listened to this at 5am in London with the birds singing their morning-chorus a while back. My ears love this track & they are singing MOD’s praises loud, great piece, a truly great piece of work Nacho & Josephine.

7 - Divine Devotion (Interlude) - The opening sequence…oh my... I’m in another dimension with this & love the use of violin & double-bass. The combination of strings, synths and tone to create the soundscape here is just fantastic to me, “layering sounds on top of each other”* was never truer (*Little Fluffy Clouds – The Orb) This is an amazing piece of sound in my humble view, very well done MOD, well done!

8 - Vimana – This track just ‘grabs’ the ear straightaway if you’re a Lounger likes myself. Any ‘pure-love-of-music in many forms’ Musik-Hed Readers will know exactly what I mean by this. I work whilst listening to such tracks all the time so this goes straight into my Zennnnnn-collection. Excellent us use of the trumpet as well as the  I hear waves crashing per the effect, there are so many subtle-sounds and element in-play here & all so very well blended. This is a fine example of a non-vocal track that stands in its own right.  i.e. any track, any genre does need a vocal to be superb, many music-lovers know this already thought of course but that point is I guess more for reader's from other viewpoints than a simple & pure love of music., we are a culture within a culture I've found so must call it as I see & feel it at this point. A great & crucially for me, soul-moving track...a new immediate favourite in my collection from Mirage of Deep. Even more so with the use of Xylophone (RIP Gill Scott-Heron & Roy Ayers) In addition, I very much enjoyed the wind-down as much as the initial build in this track, a superb dismantling of the orchestra of sound that was just built plus, only then are there words, a just right female utterance with echo…ethereal..Mystical…all the above, nice.

9 - Hechizo de Luna - Always such interesting opening sequences with MOD’s work, Nacho’s work is to these receivers instantly send’s me off into my minds-eye. so much of any such thinking is fuelled by MOD’s work, regular play etc.

10 - Petals of Tears – Another mystical opening…and the use of violin, string & piano is a very good combination here.

11 - I hear Dreams - The best opening for such a track that I have heard in a long-time, immediately moved & transported to places & spaces, Zen music for my mind and soul, THAT is what Nacho Ferrer does to me and for me. During chats with Nacho & despite any language barriers, with the tech around now, we speak well & always understand one another, always.

12 -  Divine Interlude - Double bass wonderful and deep, always loved such string-work. The combination of violin and double-bass is wonderful instantly drags on your soul, this is how I felt listening to this Nacho/MOD.

13 - Cloudless Sky (Remix) – Again, love the opening-sequence, I can only use the same descriptive-terms used in track 11. I had ‘Blade-Runner’ moment listening to this; it’s majestic in its ambition, wonderful.

14 - Sudden Flight -  A dreamy track to end this cinematic presentation of sound-scapes, very fitting, it feels and sounds like an after-thought, a wind-down with beautiful strings & a almost classic female voice, the drums are very cinematic, this tracks works on that level in all respects.
