Review by Daniel Gioffre
This is the finest album from Michael Hedges, the man who is
responsible for the greatest revolution in solo acoustic guitar playing
since Leo Kottke. There are moments on Aerial Boundaries where it
seems literally impossible that so much music is coming from one man
and his guitar. Attacking his instrument, snapping strings, banging on
the fingerboard with his right hand, Hedges plays supremely beautiful
music with the technique of a deranged lunatic. It has been said that
genius is at least one part madness — although a questionable
assertion in general terms — when applied to Hedges and his music,
the analogy holds. The songs on Aerial Boundaries are all beautiful and
haunting in their own right; and it is this emphasis on composition over
technique that makes this such an important recording. Hedges
makes the breadth of his musical interest known by the inclusion of
the extremely interesting electronic piece, "Spare Change." Even
though the liner notes assure the listener that the guitar is the origin
for every sound heard, Hedges has electronically manipulated some of
them to an almost unrecognizable point, yet he has still managed to
create music of untarnished beauty. There is something of the music
of minimalist Steve Reich's (thanked in the liner notes) in this track, as
the cycling, overlapping guitar tracks are almost trance-like in their
repetitiveness, yet utterly musical in their constant revelations. Aerial
Boundaries is simply one of the finest acoustic guitar albums ever
made, and deserves a place in the library of all serious music fans.
