Tibor Szemzo - one of the front runners of the movement from the early 80's onwards.  Snapshot From The Island - Tibor's debut solo LP, originally released on Russian ex-pat Leo Feigin's prolific, highly independent avant-jazz label Leo Records - like most of his work, was originally composed to accompany moving pictures.  Although despite the somewhat lost context of the original film, the three timeless pieces here endure, highly minimalistic in their approach with Tibor's chilling, meandering flute at the forefront.  The long-form title piece devours the A-side of the LP, a highly atmospheric journey that rises and falls in intensity, scaling the heights of chugging, bordering on industrial moments at times with that hard ricochetting rhythmic box beat, only to be plunged back down to moments of eerie calm - left alone to chase the dancing flute flutters.  On the other-side, 'Let's Go Out And Dance' is close to perfection - a tranquil arrangement of softly-lapping music box rhythm, layered flute melodies and naturalistic found sound.  Incredible (Mint \/ New - deadstock)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1        Snapshot From The Island    24:43\u003cbr\u003e2        Water-Wonder    16:30\u003cbr\u003e3        Let's Go Out And Dance 10:36\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"All Night Flight Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56698860011902,"sku":null,"price":16.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0020\/7755\/6791\/files\/IMG_1397_12412575-d87e-4e64-9354-95bc7299f18c.jpg?v=1765539792","url":"https:\/\/allnightflightrecords.com\/products\/tibor-szemzo-snapshot-from-the-island-8","provider":"All Night Flight Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
