Omnimotion- Dream Wide Awake (Aleph Zero)

Hi all,
First sorry for the non-French, but my French has only sex words and swear words in it, and even then no chance I can write it  
Maybe Kako will translate???
Anyway, I really wanted you to know about this one- especially that two of the tracks have French lyrics- so here goes:

Omnimotion- Dream Wide Awake (AlephZ06)



Release Date: October 23rd, 2006

Aleph Zero is proud to present... A New Omnimotion Album!!!
After four years of recording, producing and composing new music in his Ambium Studio based in Stockholm, Sweden, Omnimotion is finally back with a second album. Utilizing inspirations and knowledge he picked up along his very diverse musical path, Stefan has created Dream Wide Awake. The album contains the best musical gems that were carefully chosen from the music that accumulated in this four year period. It is a beautifully mellow yet optimistic album, with a strong acoustic presence. Dream Wide Awake is an incredibly diverse album. It features eight different vocalists- from a rapper to an opera singer- and many guest musicians with an array of instruments including the violin, accordion, guitar, drums, harp & flute. The outcome hovers between the electronic and the acoustic, the hypnotic and the melodic, between abstract ambient and mellow songs, between dubby songs and IDM glitches. Omnimotion weaves and paints here an emotional musical journey that must not be missed and will leave you dreaming wide awake.

Hi again,

First, release notes in French!!!

Après quatre années à enregistrer et composer à Ambium, son studio de Stockholm en Suède, Omnimotion nous revient avec ce deuxième album. D’inspirations diverses,   Dream Wide Awake reflète les explorations musicales de Stefan et présente de pure joyaux du genre, d’une tendre et mélancolique beauté et vibrant de présence acoustique. Dream Wide Awake est un album d’une diversité incroyable, offrant la participation de huit vocalistes - du raper au chanteur d’opéra – et de musiciens explorant leurs divers instruments, violon, accordéon, guitare, percussions, harpe & flute. Le son qui résulte de ces accords flotte entre l’électro acoustique, abstract mélodic ambient, et tripdubby IDM. Omnimotion tisse la trame d’un voyage aux émotions sonores, d’un rêve tout éveillé.

Also here are some snippets of the first [g]reviews pouring in:

"[Dream Wide Awake] keeps unlocking undiscovered soundscapes each time you hit play, just as a Dali painting reveals new aspects each time you study it. That is why it lasts, that is why it will grow on you too... [It] is the result of a clever sound wizard, a maestro of ambient who spellbinds your perception, leaving you dreaming wide awake. The album could very well have been the outcome, if you took Yonderboi and the Gordon Brothers from the Buddha Lounge series and placed them together with Enigma in a studio for a week! A diverse downtempo experience. Voila! *****" - Calmspace Radio(Sweden)

"Over a variety of gentle beat patterns and synthesised tones Lundhaal picks up a guitar or flute or violin or cheap-sounding keyboard and plays it with new eyes and hands. What comes out is beautiful and always a bit unexpected... Rating: 4/5" - Ambient Music Guide (Australia)

"[Omnimotion]... has chosen a varied and very acoustical path to our senses, smelting elements from various styles we are presented with a mixed bag of downtempo goodies... The album is perfect for any downbeat electronic music enthusiast... This release is a concept one has to grasp, the music, the artwork, the album and track title all combine to form a cohesive bond." - Decompression Chamber (India)

"This time Aleph-Zero delivers the goods and reveals an Omnimotion that has evolved greatly over the intervening years - the hypnotic individuality, however, is still there, if anything Stefan is drifting further off onto a course of his own. No-one sounds quite like this and yet Dream Wide Awake is accessible and appealing, drawing on familiar elements of downtempo, glitch, jazz, dub, ambient and lounge. " - Morpheus Music (UK)

"A mellow flowing, melancholic, optimistic album in which the various instruments are constantly making themselves heard [and] intertwine themselves with Electronic sounds becoming dubby, and sometimes abstract, melodic and hypnotic" - Intershroom (Germany)

"This album is a synergy between organic and electronic elements and colours… diversity and inspiration; the sounds and the arrangements of the compositions often complement each other, creating a totally new hybrid sound. As a stand-alone work it deserves respect and has some moments of brilliance." - Revolve Magazine (UK)
