Rapoon - Rapoon Live At LACE Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions

Review by Jessi Hance

Rapoon Live At LACE Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions is a mesmerizing live album that captures the essence of the experimental ambient artist Rapoon's live performances. The album features recordings from a live concert held at the LACE Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions in 1993, which showcases Rapoon's unique soundscapes and hypnotic rhythms.

The album opens with the track "Raindance," which sets the tone for the rest of the album with its swirling ambient textures and pulsing beats. The following tracks, including "Fires of the Borderlands" and "New Traditions," continue to build on this foundation, creating a captivating sonic journey that is both meditative and intense.

Rapoon's use of traditional instruments, such as the didgeridoo and hand percussion, adds a primal element to the music, while the electronic manipulations and samples create a futuristic, otherworldly atmosphere. The result is a truly immersive listening experience that transports the listener to another realm.
