Chris Raneir – The Universe Is A Long Time (Independent)

0

Australian based South African Chris Raneir offers a gentle though quite a varied range of textural guitar work on The Universe is a Long Time. Incredibly adept at establishing a mood, Ranier unlike many experimental guitarist/ composers is willing to move beyond the drones, beyond the digital manipulation and work with the resonances of notes, which occur regularly throughout this album, in sparse two or three note runs. It’s this refusal to pigeonhole his technique that makes The Universe is a Long Time so interesting and evocative, where you can move beyond the approach and focus on the emotion resonating through his gentle tinkering.
