It’s been over ten years since Thomas Melchior made his bow on Perlon, and the house and techno fusionist has released most of his best work on the imprint since. Here he returns to the acclaimed German label with a series of six “meditations” – long, drawn out compositions that variously doff a cap to hypnotic tech-house (see the excellent, jazz-flecked “Meditation 5”), tribal-influenced, spaced-out grooves (“Meditation 6”) and woozy, evocative deep house (“Meditation 3”). Best of all, though, are the album’s more melodious moments, with opener “Meditation 1” – a loopy, picturesque concoction that sounds like an unlikely collaboration between Terry Riley, Steve Reich and Ricardo Villalobos.
