Inversions presents a beguiling sonic sense - so much so that we owe it proof that we will one day become as free and as open as it asks us to be.

For the duration of this release the tone is intimate, but then so is the scale - a rare and cherishable quality in Spacemusic. The sound surface changes from feathery to hard edged, evoking a landscape terrain as surely as it does the amorphous aether above it. By avoiding the long and formless Wøllo builds an enjoyable ambient charisma of minute detail. Throughout these minimal passages and entrancing transformations the slightest gesture becomes much more significant. Listening our way through to the back end of evening we will notice that this musical spellwork is driven less by technology than it is by yearning and resignation - the most remote of all circuitry. Then the embattled twilight succumbs to a re-invasion of shadows. In an orchestra of looping lines a mournful lead line flickers like a lonely candle in the wind of time. Here and there the fog lifts a little bit, and we find reeling stars and midnight things. Coarse then sweet, timbre, melody and harmony divide our attention. A misty melancholy permeates as Wøllo charts a descent into darkness, and back. This collection of spacey slow burners gains slight bursts of color as ideas flow melodiously, rising out of experimental inclinations.

In a tone florid and rounded Inversions confers an aura of perpetually becoming. In just the right mixture of the earthly and the celestial he provides promising moments of affecting sentiment - that taken together convey a singular message. It is with great care and taste that Wøllo casts his tender spell of beauty. The impulsive quality also notes a disarming honesty - an unfiltered truth. Spontaneously conceived and executed by conducting the output of his electric guitar into digital devices and effects this kind of improvising requires just as much listening as it does playing. Here Erik Wøllo has managed to record seven gentle, soul-strengthening pieces of a quality more profound and resonant than most artists working in a similar vein.
