This is the London based, Scottish-born composer and multi-instrumentalist Philip Clemo's sixth ensemble recording since the late 1990s. Dream Maps has echoes of ambient art-rock pioneers such as Brian Eno and David Sylvian, and sometimes it sounds like Miles' Sketches of Spain reimagined by Jon Hassell. The large 21-piece chamber ensemble was formed in 1995 and this time out features the Norwegian trumpeter/otherworldly sonic soundscapist Arve Henriksen who is the key soloist. Clemo has a painterly approach to the ensemble sometimes adding electronically treated found sounds, Evi Vine's abstracted vocals and Beatlesish backwards guitar to a slowly evolving multi-layered soundworld. It's going to be too new-age and static for some tastes in the jazz world, but its meditative, trance-like stillness and symphonic ambience has its own special appeal.
