Here's a review from disquiet.com:
[ November 7, 2005 ]
SPACE MUSIC MP3: On Halloween, the Stasisfield netlabel (stasisfield.com)
released a single, hour-long piece by musician Peter Koniuto titled Past
Andromeda (MP3). As the name suggests, it's an exercise in space music:
slow blooms of galactic sound that stretch from ear to ear like a blissful
smile; sonar blurps that bring to mind how Star Trek creator Gene
Roddenberry imagined submarines, rather than airplanes, as the Starship
Enterprise's most significant predecessor; and occasional flurries of
digitally messed-up speech, suggesting the space-enabled psychosis of
Stanislaw Lem's novel Solaris. There's also a patiently plucked melody
that
sounds like the opening from the theme to Deliverance played at quarter
speed, and each time it cycles through it grounds the track's otherwise
heady stew of aural effluvia. The version of Past Andromeda on Stasisfield
is a stereo reduction of an eight-speaker installation project by Koniuto,
who first staged it at the University of the Pacific's Conservatory of
Music in Stockton, California, back in September 2002 as part of the
school's annual Music Beyond Performance series. The music's source
materials include electric bass guitar, field recordings, children's toys,
glass vases, harmonica, among other household objects. More on Koniuto at
the website of his upstate New York studio, redsunsoundroom.com.
