Re-mastered label release - date of release: April 18th, 2005

The reviews quoted below refer to the previous private release of "Lost In The Deep Blue" but can already give you an idea what the re-release will be about...

Aural Innovations, USA - November 2003: �Lost In The Deep Blue is Frank's fourth album in less than two years, and follows in the footsteps of his previous CD's, being completely unpredictable, and decidedly fresh and exciting with each new release. (...) In summary, Lost In The Deep Blue is an impressive addition to what is quickly becoming a stylistically diverse and sonically compelling body of work.� - full article (this review is followed by a detailed interview on the same site)

Chain D.L.K., USA - November 2003: �Frank Gingeleit is back with a surprising album that sets apart from his previous production and provides a different approach to live avantgarde experimental music while keeping an outlook on free-jazz improvisation and krautrock. (...) I suggest you test your mind's openess with this record because it deserves your attention and your admiration.� - full article

Sonic Curiosity, USA - December 2003: �Quirky electronics flow with exuberant purpose, unfurling and undulating to generate a shimmering atmosphere of crystalline sound. Cascading textures collide to form complex chords that become tension-laden riffs with the aid of eccentric percussives and resounding guitar effects.� - full article

Encyclopedia of Electronic Music, Russia - January 2004 (update of the previous entry): �Lost In the Deep Blue features pieces that in a way harken back to the soundworlds explored on Nightmare & Escapades rather than those of Megalopolis and Toy Island. All compositions were performed on just the guitar and guitar synth and some of them sound like band performed bluesy tunes. Overall, a very satysfying outing with echoes of jazzy Ash Ra Tempel scattered throughout.� - full article

Moderne Klangkunst, Germany - March 2004: �Die St�cke bewegen sich irgendwo zwischen Psychedelic, Krautrock, Blues und Fusion. (...) Was hier z�hlt, ist weniger der �Song�, als vielmehr pure, halluzinogene Atmosph�re. Was f�r ein Trip!� - full article

Modern Dance, UK - April 2004: �The album isn't just a cracking improv 'journey', it's actually testament to how a guitar synth works and what can be done with it. (...) The more you listen to this album, though, the more you appreciate the techniques involved, and, more to the point, the techniques that weren't, such as loops and computers. Eight tracks in all, each one blending rather effectively into the other - amazing stuff, an amazing guy I guess.� - full article

Encyclopedia of Electronic Music, Russia - July 2004 (review): �On this album Frank Gingeleit only used guitar, guitar synthesizer and fx. So, the istrumentation seems to be identical to that used on his first outing - 'Nightmares & Escapades'. But, in contrast to his former work where he tried to coax experimental textures using his limited setup, here the purpose was to make the tunes sound as "natural" as possible. Frank set out to create a bunch of pieces and the purpose was to make them sound like impovised band-performed blues music. And boy, does he succeed! � - full article

L.A. X..Press, September, 16th, 2004: "one of the most inventive and moving new electronica composers today" (...) "an aboriginal journey through the deserts and mesas of what could be considered the elemental qualities of human experience and universal consciousness" (...) "a virtuosity that is in the league of some of the more time honored prog-rock guitarists" (der L.A. X..Press isn't online)
