PAN.O.RA.MA review of Selo Vatra "Selo Vatra"

SELO VATRA(Usa)
"Selo Vatra" Cdr 2011
(Noctivagant)
Selo Vatra is the enigmatic ritualistic project of Dan and Nicky.and this album was a surprise due the incredible musicalizationship and structure in each one of the seven compositions developed here. So,they works with a professionalism and creativity without limits,always exploring the diverse sounds and arrangind through the use of dieverse instruments.
"Procession" is the firs one included here,and its just amazing,how the track is evolving from marching ritual drumings,and vocal mantras,creating something very interesting,due how music leaves you to another level of existence. so with pass of minutes comes "Noctnitsa",emerging into more an ambient structure with infuence on ancient Slavonic lore,converging into eerie,and dark passages,still with some percussive elements,chimes,and iverse element there,creating a very enigmatic piece. Though "Village Of Widows",continues with the engimatic voyge,this time with percusive sounds,evolving from time to time and adapted perfeclty with sounds and effects,always bringing such ritual atmopshere worth to explore.
The interesting point in each one of SELO VATRA compositions is such kind of enigmatic ritualistic atmosphere.so without a doubt one of the best releases coming from such country lately. "snakeDance" continues with this explorative spectrum,offering you,tibal druming sounds and mantras emerging as an evocative ritual dance masked to invoke the inner serpent! an intense voyage,full of dark vaporous passages and ancestral essence ,since the very beginning to the end!!
"Wailing forest","The Brook"and "ascension" closes this excellent release.The album comes on a tri-fold cdr limited to 120 copies! for info contact Noctivagant or just email SELO VATRA dprelr@sbcglobal.net
