author: David J Opdyke'With ethnic percussion peppering the bowed strings of his Telecaster and/or Stratocaster Antony De Gennaro launches into Orbit above softly-spiraling worlds of subdued psychedelia where Easternish drones shimmer in metallic radiance and sprinklings of cymbal-dust. With luxuriously unhurried transformations, I Once Was Me hovers on contemplative ripples and slow-motion curlicues, sometimes accented with spaciously-applied percussive bits. Opening The Cosmic Door (3:24) reveals a brassily-sheening world covered with lightly-buzzy energy-clouds, marked by thumps, patters and six-string reverberations. Muted clangs announce the beginning of a freeform Ceremony (15:21); its seething mists part to reveal sonorous organ chords and floating jangles which stream along in lazily wandering channels, darkening seductively in its final sweltering moments. Thank the entity of your choice, it's Friday... filled with twinkling belltones and trickling notes which take their own little daytrips, and thus end these seven tracks of peacefully rarefied exotica from the northwesterner Antony De Gennaro... With thoughtful pacing and an amiably straightforward approach, the paisley currents of The Message Service just "are". The dismissive non-listener could pass this off as "some kind of hippy music", but these accessible vibes are smoothed out into something rather more magical and just as effective. Nice work!
