Max Richter: 24 Postcards In Full Colour

121.91.16.89

I have been trying to figure what to write about this for a week.
Not that I don't like the music, but these pieces were written to be ringtones. Yes ringtones for mobile phones.
These are a series of interrelated short "tu/ones" that are kind of ambient and very atmospheric.
A little like the stuff Orff wrote for school orchestras in their apparent simplicity.
I keep finding myself playing the CD. Over and over.
Try the link and see what you think.
One of my favourites is Cascade NW by W which is the second one down on the left.
