Derek Rush is a
busy man dedicated to creating alternative music for a new age. He has worked
together with bands like A Murder Of Angels, Loretta's Doll, Of Unknown
Origin and 4th Sign Of The Apocalypse to mention some but Dream Into Dust is
his own one man project since 1995. This is the only full-length album so far
but another one is planned for the future to be released via World Serpent
Distribution. Compared to the MCD "No Man's Land" from 1997 this album is a
lot more mature with more organized and well-layered music yet still daring
and far from a mainstream sound. Sometimes Dream Into Dust make me think of
Eurythmics, one of the best bands in the history of music, but with a darker
and noisier approach. To add to the somber and orchestral atmosphere violinist
Eddy Malave from the Arethusa String Quartet has been engaged in the recording
of this album. The violin is one of the most beautiful acoustic instruments
and I wish there would be more of it in today's alternative scene as well as
on this album since it is used rather scarcely. The UK based label Misanthropy
Records was laid to rest in the year 2000 but it will forever be remembered
for several high quality releases of which this is one (Elfenblut was a
division of Misanthropy). Nothing spectacular but a nice release to check out
if you like experimental ambient music of any
kind.
