Much-appreciated reissue of the second Gas EP, originally released in 1999. Two long form pieces over 27 minutes, Voight displaying all of his masterly and majestic skills of beautifully restrained minimalism and deep emotion. I think it's that dichotomy that makes Gas so appealing - how such vivid emotional impulses can be conjured from such a limited palette. Voight seems to say it best when he says (almost) nothing at all... We call it ambient, but this doesn't exist in the background of anything else: it pulls you right into its own world, another place to exist outside of yourself.
