Electric Satie • 1999 • Gymnopedie '99

Mitsuto Suzuki does 9 modern electronica-like arrangements of Erik Satie, some of them in styles like a Brazilian flavor. He does Gymnopedie no.1 three times in different styles to make it kind of a recurring theme.While he's doing Satie compositions, he is arranging them to the extent that you can't really call this a classical synth album the way say Tomita does. Ironically the most French sounding track of the 10 is La Lune which is his original composition.When I saw the track list I noticed the conspicuous absence of Satie's popular Gnossienes. I imediately suspected if he were to do a second album they would be the recurring theme. I'd think that hardcore Satie fans would be curious and upon listening while thinking some stuff clever and interesting, but will find overall it doesn't really evoke Satie. While it has a textured ambient sound its just a little short of being a really good ambient album regardless of the Satie.
