The View From Vega

• Track Listing

"The View From Vega", is Ben Edwards, better known by his pseudonym Benge, debut solo album on the DiN imprint, is primarily an ambient suite of tracks inspired by the space-music typically produced in the late 1970s and early 1980s. It uses a selection of vintage synthesizers, sequencers and FX units to provide a fertile sonic landscape to explore. The idea was to use simple sequences, sustained synthesizer pads and electronic piano improvisations, alongside various ancient delay, flange and reverb units. The beautiful, warm quality of the tones that exude from such instruments are very evident on the six tracks that slowly unfold their oscillations in organic, melodic soundscapes.
