electro-acoustic pieces

“‘fernmist’ is a fitting title for the relaxing ambient mix of slowly evolving textures created in Chris Wind’s composition.” Dave Lindsay, CECG Newsletter

“Eno would wet his pants.” Ralph Kircher

“Chris Wind creates an unearthly landscape with ominous bass and foreboding metallic synthesizer sounds [in ‘fernmist’]” Syne 1986

“‘fernmist'” is at once ominous and yet beautiful; crystalline notes that draw you seductively into the unsettling constancy of the twisting central tonic while sheets of sound intermittently surge through like unknown laments.” Michael Chocholak, Skomorokhi

“This music has lots of fresh compositional ideas. Just when you think indie music is getting swallowed up in mediocrity it’s nice to see something as refreshing as this come along.” Ben Kettlewell WOMR
