I suppose a clue is in the title, that this is a much more varied album than most in this series. Here we have Chekalin exploring a variety of more melodic moods, from the dark and mysterious to bright and tuneful. Some of this reminds me of the early 1980's synth based Peter Frohmader / Nekropolis, and there are a good few tracks that feel like Tangerine Dream during their early soundtrack phase, and there are other less tangible variations. If you want something good by Chekalin that's not so weird, then this is the ideal starter!
