THE
AMBiENT PiNG wrapped up its Tuesday night series
at The Gladstone Hotel Ballroom on December 4th, 2004
with Journey to Ambientia Part 2 by Paul
Needler, aka
Arms Full of Sound. PiNG enthusiasts hunkered down
in the ballroom while, outside, gale-force winds threatened
to bring down the scaffolding that adorns the west side of
the Gladstone these days.
Building
momentum for our Journey to Ambientia,
Arms
Full of Sound began with a piece titled Rhythmic
Universe.
Amidst the drifting melodic textures of the first set were
images of planets, asteroids and lava lamps oozing like
amoebas-in-motion. Arms Full of Sound's pulsing rhythms
were especially effective alongside the forest imagery that
closed the set. Needler pushed the journey motif further in
a 2nd set titled Journey's End. While the 2nd set covered
the same terrain visually, it was more varied musically. Both
sets integrated familiar sound symbols - church bells,
for example - into their electronic soundscapes, creating
soundmarks to guide the listeners' journey.
Always forward-thinking, PiNG organizers ended the evening
by preparing for the next leg of THE AMBiENT PiNG's own
journey to a new venue downtown. Once thank yous and
good-byes were extended to Gladstone staff, The PiNG blew
out of the Gladstone's drafty ballroom, quietly anticipating
the warmth of the Tequila Lounge in the New Year.

Ambientia is available here.
