ROBERT FRIPP

"THE GATES OF PARADISE"

Discipline Global Mobile/Sonifolk

This album by the famous guitarist Robert Fripp is a enigmatic work, nocturnal, oneiric, entering electronic Ambient and Dark Space Music. Much of the music is icy, ghostly, radically electronic. The topic that has inspired the release is the voyage beyond the borders that separate the life from the death, paradise from hell. The record is divided into four parts, each one of them also divided into several pieces. Some of the titles are charismatic indeed as for instance "The Outer Darkness", "In Fear and Trembling of the Lord", "A wailing and gnashing of teeth", and "Abandonment to Divine Providence". The music is in tune with them, offering a markedly unearthly character.
