ASTRAL Eolith City (Astral) Clones of TD and Schulze are alive and programming everywhere today, and like anyone milking the Berlin school for all its worth, some simply languish while others expound. Keyboardist Pat Cotillo might not be the next Froese, but the six lengthy space excursions to be found on Eolith City fairly sparkle with the brilliant textures and swirling, incandescent sounds. Contemporaries such as John Serrie or even Pete Namlook are also in abundance here, but Cotillo weaves through his influences with exuberance and a childlike wonder. “Machines 2093” could almost be slowed-down Pinhas (minus the scorching guitar), displaying whizzing sheets of electronics amidst trickling rivulets of purring sequencers. In all, a fresh spin on the Tueutonic axis , Westernized without any new age Faults.
