Monotony is being underestimated. Mostly equated with boredom and
uniformity, you usually rather try to avoid than to seek it.
But if you expose yourself to it in various contexts, you might discover
rhythmic and enlightening sides to it, until in the end you might even
associate it with autonomy.
As a drummer, Michael Hoffmann knows all about the rhythmic powers of
monotony. As an ambient musician, he also knows a fair lot about its
enlightening qualities. On his second e.p. on iD.EOLOGY he therefore
contrasts the oppressive, mechanical tedium of an industrial assembly-
line with the organic solitude of primeval landscapes. Time slows down
in the eternal darkness of a maritime abyss, the self is being reflected
on the horizon by the shimmering heat of the barren outback, the
tundra's relentless iciness freezes the body's shell, insulating the
soul hermetically.
While the focus shifts from outside to inside, the spirit starts to
vibrate, a gate to the centre of a universe behind the forehead springs
open. A universe that follows only those rules and contains only that
which you have created yourself. Autonomously.
