Music reviews of Oceanic: Remixes / Reinterpretations
Music Review: How to Wreck a Great Album, in a Few Simple Steps
Rating: 1 Stars
First off, I would would say that the previous review is about right.
Now, onto these, glorious, wonderful remixes (not)! I think what this really is, is an experiment to see how bad it is possible to make an Isis album sound. They have succeeded fabulously. Whereas Oceanic is a beatiful, flowing, truly fantastic piece of music, the remixes are basically all ambient noise. They really do just about nothing, and its two discs of it to boot. Maybe 10 minutes of pulsing here, with a few vocals thrown in to change it up a bit. Honestly, there is no skill required here, and it basically does nothing musically, either.
Honestly, I don't see why anyone would like this. I guess if you already know you like pulsing ambient noise, pick this up. But if you like Isis but don't know about ambient noise, I would stay away. There is very little Isis here, mostly on the booklet, actually. The two discs bear almost no resemblance to Isis music whatsoever. (Maybe Aaron Turner music, but not Isis. I don't understand what Aaron has for Ambience.)
In short, how would I define these discs? An attempt to make Oceanic as directionless, simple, and boring (really, as non-existent) as possible. Thinking on it further, these aren't really "remixes", so much as taking one note from one Isis song and playing it over for 7 minutes and calling it a remix of the song. That is certainly a simplistic summary, but closer to the truth than anything else.
Caution: You'll probably be bored to tears by this. And you should be.
