This release from Creation VI is based on the symbol of the Flat World which, according to the liner notes, was chosen as it's tied to a whole mythology whose sense emerged from the idea of a bounded territory whose third dimension, the mountains, was the dimension of Gods. The overall music results stand on that form of post industrial where the use of drone is mediated by the use of almost ethnic elements which give a sense of displacement as it were recorded on another continent.
A quiet drone opens "The Flat World" and the listener is slowly introduced into a sonic landscape where elements unfold from an apparently quiet ground. "Ancient Wind" uses sparse drum and flute sections to give a distant element of reality into a structure that could seem constructed. "Mountain Roots" starts as a sort of song as it features whispers as a sort of ritual. While the first part of "Keepers of Existence" is focused on the evocative properties of sound, his second part is focused on deep drone, in an almost didgeridoo register, to underline a sort of religious setting. "Beside The Tree of Life" closes this release with layers of drone to generate a sense of departure.
While it's not a ground-breaking release, this release features an almost mature sense of form and bases his form of the evocative properties of sound and a recognizable, almost reassuring, form. Perhaps not only for fans of the genre.
