E.D.O. (Edo Spanninga)

The Past Is A Foreign Country 2025

B Cinematic Art Symphonic Prog (few plays)

"This certainly is also intended as a premonition and warning in sight of current and soon-to-be experiences. The well composed music is backed by a concept that is dealing with sorta political landmark occurrences from the western history. Consequently, first and foremost there's a dramatic and melancholic keyboard / synth presence to state, which includes the mighty Mellotron too. A special trademark is the intensive use of partially wellknown speech samples, chronologically ranging from Goebbels to Trump. This is well-intentioned, though I'm still torn if it's overshadowing the musical component too much."
