«Technocrats believed that politicians and businessmen could not coordinate a complex, rapidly advancing industrial society. The technocrats proposed replacing politicians with scientists and engineers who had the technical expertise to coordinate the economy. The technocratic philosophy assumed that energy was the critical factor determining economic and social development. The technocrats measured social change in physical terms: the average number of kilocalories used per capita per day. Money would be replaced by energy certificates, the total supply of which would be determined by the total amount of energy used in the production of goods and services.»

Опубликовано: 19 окт. 2013 г.Track 3/8, from Gravity (Ad Noiseam adn168).
To The Hills begins with a long interference noise during more than 3 minutes 30, interrupted by strings and high-pitched sounds in the background, before the piano kicks in, like a thick fog slowly going away.
This song evokes for me the birth of a living being, pushed away from the comfort and the safety of the mother's womb to the real world, facing for the first time the elements, particularly light. Used to the darkness, that living being is almost mugged by the light, his pupils being for the first time open, air invading his lungs, sounds coming out from his mouth, cold hitting his skin.
This is for me that noisy part of the song, a fog in his eyes, an unknown sensation catching him in an incontrollable way. But after a few minutes, the newborn is slowly getting used to this whole new world, and doesn't feel mugged anymore.
The pictures are now coming clear to his eyes, the mother is holding him in her arms to share her heat, the air is not biting his throat. He understands that the light does not just allow him to see, but warms him up too. It may be better than he first thought and it looks beautiful. Now being reassured, the newborn can't help falling asleep; after all, he can be done with such a hard day.
Unknown is not always a bad thing, you just have to try at least once.

The last track of Gravity is a bit different from the rest of the set, as it seems to have no piano, but rather choirs and strings.
The finale is, in my opinion, the part that definitely releases you from the slight gravity you've always been subjected to through this album, a part that kept your body and your soul a bit on the Earth.
The choirs sound unreal, not from our world but somewhere far beyond our human reach. Excessively stretched and reverberated, foreign to our perception and knowledge, the voices added to the dissonant strings touches our spiritual side. They call you and you want to answer. The only condition is to leave the Earth, choose to not depend on gravity anymore.
Anyway, it's what you always wanted through these 42 minutes, isn't it? So you finally drop the rope that held you down there and serenely sail to new heights, new worlds, new sensations and perceptions over and above Earth's boundaries.
This track gives off an atmosphere and a peace I find when I enter a church. Something mystical that I can't be sure it exists or not, but still inspires respect and humility, making you feel like a speck of dust in an inaccessible immensity.
