Emotionally, crafted by Brainislave Zivkovic and Andre Tschaskowski in 1986 for Coloursound, is arguably the most beautiful library album ever produced. A start-to-finish masterpiece of powerfully melodic music for reflection and introspection. It is, indeed, deeply emotional. Branislave Zivkovic handles the majority of Side A. Opener 'Morning Light' evokes exactly that feeling, with a gorgeous and plaintive acoustic guitar solo combining with alto flute to stunning effect. It's immediate counterpoint, 'Sundown', in no less arresting but brings with it an after-dark drama of almost Lynchian proportions, again drawing upon guitar and flute but with a slightly more melancholic, even sinister edge, also calling to mind Ry Cooder's score for Paris, Texas. It truly captivates when the strings arrive. Remarkable. The reflective cello solo with swelling strings at the heart of 'Pastoral Walk 1' ensure this track is aptly titled, with parts 2 and 3 adding more agitation - via keys and percussive elements - to great effect. 'In The Garden 1' presents an elegiac cello solo whilst it's second part elevates the romance. The four-part 'Soft Thoughts' suite invites further introspection via reflective alto flute and guitar. Fans of The Durutti Column will need to seek this. Andre Tschaskowski enters proceedings with three tracks at the end of the Side A. All of them aces in the pack. 'Grief', whilst sorrowful, uplifts in it's second half through beautiful keys. Equally hopeful are the two-part 'Personal Mood' sketches, both dreamy exercises in optimistic ambience. Tschaskowski controls the entirety of Side B. 'Woodland Mood', with it's pastoral flute and cor anglais and 'Reminiscence', with it's classical, emotional strings, both beguile. The piano and strings-heavy 'Sentimental View' suite is one of the most beautiful, atmospheric things you will ever hear, particularly it's second part. 'Moonset 1' with it's wonderful Joe Pass-esque guitar is tense yet easy, the beauty elevated further with the introduction of strings and horns. The more restrained 'Moonset 2' is pared back to it's divine, sweeping essence and should surely have been sampled by now. To close out an album of almost impossible refinement, the brief 2-part 'Emotional Tension' salvo brings both increased stress before resolving itself and the LP with a piano motif and atmosphere of serenity. Blessed relief. As David Hollander, in Unusual Sounds: The Hidden History of Library Music, states, Coloursound was 'founded in 1979 by composer, music lawyer, and vibraphonist Gunter Greffenius. A Munich-based library with a reputation for releasing innovative and ambitious music, it catered largely to the market for experimental sounds, it's first release was 1980's Biomechanoid, an abstract synthesizer excursion by Joel Vandroogenbroeck, of the pioneering kosmische band Brainticket. The record - complete with imposing, anonymous title and unearthly H.R. Giger cover art - set the tone for the label's progressive leanings. The label's catalogue stands as a tribute to the unfettered creative license that libraries were able to provide to forward-thinking musicians who, frustrated by the whims and constraints of the commercial scene, found complete freedom in the world of production music.'As with all our library music re-issues, the audio for Emotionally comes from the original analogue tapes and has been remastered for vinyl by Be With regular Simon Francis. Richard Robinson has brought the original Coloursound sleeve back to life in all it's metallic silver glory.
