"Recommended: The Czech composer Ondřej Adámek first burst into my consciousness- and burst is very much the right word - in 2018 with his extraordinary album, Sinuous Voices. It was clear from that recording that here was an exceptional and exceptionally fresh new composer and this new disc will only enhance his reputation since it is quite remarkable from first minute to last. The scope of Adámek's imagination is almost dazzling as is the ferocious energy that courses through the veins of his music. It is not for the faint hearted but then neither was Beethoven's 5th or the Rite of Spring. This is music that grabs the listener by the ears and doesn't let go. I found it completely exhilarating ... Adámek can find music in almost anything and make no mistake - this is a musical event above all else. The composer isn't advancing some obscure musicological idea but making maddening, frenzied, bewildering, exuberant music. Ultimately, like the spiritual quest it describes, words fail to do justice to this piece. You are just going to have to listen to it".
