Dragon’s Eye Recordings is proud to announce the release of Divisions in Parallel, the third full length cd by Seattle’s Son of Rose (Kamran Sadeghi). On Divisions in Parallel we see Sadeghi depart from his previous palate of synthesis and altered recordings and find him exploring the world of electro-acoustics, paring digital processing and synthesis with a grand piano. Keeping in his purely improvised style, nothing here is studio trickery. Sadeghi dives head first (sometimes literally) into the tonal qualities of the piano, producing a shimmering, delicate and subtle world that is pleasantly diverse despite the tight parameters in which he works.

…immaculately engineered sonic sophistication.

…Sadeghi’s use of the slow-swelling properties of the E-bow filtering through subterranean museums of opaque, glassy dreamscapes like a less oppressive virsion of Halo Manash’s Isolationist Ambience. Disarming Stuff.

…a microsonic bio-mechanic sine-drone takes over for the lowercase minimalism…

…a series of soundscapes that alternate scenarios, timbral gradations and intensities like in an evolutionist theatre piece, often traveling in the proximities of microsound-based, glitching new ambient…

Rhythmic cycles seem to permeate the whole work, establishing long, static pulses related to the harmonic pedals which contribute towards the creation of an of an inner regularity impression flowing beneath the outer harshness, thus presenting two unrelated, parallel levels.

In this album he delivers a minimal composition with subtle harmonies, drones, bright tonalities taken from piano and strings, and abstract textures made out of digital and analogue sounds.

Beautifully deep and sculptural sound design is combined with a deft touch on the arrangements to give you a sense of intimacy with the work that’s instantly accessible and surprisingly warm sounding.
