Between the Twilights

Editorial Reviews
The Sentimentalist V2 #5
"The Unquiet Void is highly recommended to fans of ambient, atmospheric, apocalyptic dream music."

Back Again webzine
"...ambient music with a few tribal elements, think of early Coil meets Industrial projects like Para-Noise Terminal."

Album Description
As an audio interpretation of artist Jason Wallach’s fertile dreams and imagination, he has created an album of instrumental music that resonates in the mind as a revolving door between reality and surreality. The title, Between the Twilights, reflects visions that surface before the waking hours, in that space where one cannot distinguish reality from phantasm. It takes us through all the stages of a dream experience: from closing your eyes and drifting through lucid visions to our abrupt thrust into a waking world we only think is real.

What Dreams May Come? opens the record with a miasma of ambient sound. Intangible voices akin to seraphim weep during the verses of Surrealistic Visions. This prepares one for the beautifully orchestral epic, Sinking into the Blue, Black Oblivion. Its grand sweeping waves will overwhelm the most passionate of spirits and carry one to higher planes one never sees during consciousness. Sea of Serenity explores the dreaming as a vast subconscious universe in which we are free to travel each night like a vast sea. Morning Twilight begins sweetly and gradually twists into a disturbing melody that drags you back in the realm of nightmares and then releases you into daylight.

Between the Twilights is an ascent into celestial ambiance

4 out of 5 stars A Very Unique Listen..........2005-05-25

Finding words to describe this release is harder then I thought... What I can do is explain what this music reminds me of. At times it oftens sounds like a soundtrack to some discovery channel space documentary... You know the type, a boring guy talks about stars and black holes while a collection of space images is shown. These tracks would fit in quite perfect for such a show.

It really does give you a dreamy in space feel. I fell asleep while listening to this CD the other night in my bed and I had very trippy dreams!

I love this artist!

5 out of 5 stars Hypnotic.......2003-04-16

I ordered this album pretty much sound unheard (as opposed to sight unseen) from Middle Pillar and I LOVE it! Between the Twilights seems to capture the essence of sleep and dreams. It is also really, really good as an accompanyment to meditation or other rituals.

Between The Twilights
The Unquiet Void
Mike Ventarola (initially appeared in New Grave Magazine)

Middle Pillar introduces Jason Wallach, the mastermind behind The Unquiet Void, who clearly demarcates a highly ambitious and breathtaking work. Between The Twilights is meditative, reflective and at times, disturbing. It is like a midnight swim in the moonlight where we are unsure if we are truly safe from the aquatic dangers that may lurk beneath the darkened waters.

Subliminally, it encroaches upon our psyche to peer into the corners of our mind that we choose to ignore. The music at times took on the element of breathing and floating in an effortless fashion, which propelled us to a false sense of security, not unlike our waking existence. Like the fury of water that becomes a rushing tidal wave, the sound plunged us headlong into a forbidden and ominous territory that we are finally forced to confront.

Like other Middle Pillar label releases, The Unquiet Void is for the connoisseur of music who strives for a more mature element to their dark music which makes them feel and think. Wallach doesn't just create music; he creates the elemental forces via sound. At various points in the recording, one is left with the feeling of sound becoming fluid, fire, earth and air. Rather than being a total descent into dark ambient music, this recording stretches to create a harmonic entity that is fully capable of being light and dark without compromising either. For those who desire music that stretches the paradigms of introspective parameters, Between the Twilights will enable you to create whole new worlds of existence within your own dreams.
