Richard Burmer - Mosaic (1984)


Synth-y new age perfection. Synthesizer, vocoder, sax, flute, lil' bit of singing here and there, hella relaxing. Yes, that's how the cover is supposed to look, and yes, there is a song called "Solarsex".

Track listing:
1. Physics
2. Solarsex
3. Winter on the Wind
4. Riverbend
5. The Serum
6. '88
7. Ave Pladeaelio
8. The Hill
9. Under Shaded Water
10. Lamento Di Tristan
11. Ela-A (Theme No. 2)

Nightlands

  2. Great stuff. Never would have heard of Burmer if not for this post -- which is strange because I listen to his contemporaries (like Suzanne Ciani). Anyway, thanks for the post.

  3. This is GREAT. While I'm sure it's mostly all done on a synthesizer the sounds are defo of the tonal percussive instrument kind (xylephone, bell, chime, etc) and has that wonderful multivoice polyphony sound, as was popular in the 1980s - and bless them for that. I love this stuff. Thank you!
