Requiem Settings

Requiem Settings was conceived as the Silverman’s response to the shattering events of 9/11, perhaps appropriate enough given the themes of death and apocalypse so often prevalent in the Legendary Pink Dots. In keeping with his work in general, the six-part composition is strictly instrumental and takes on different styles across its elements, from near-Thomas Köner levels of ringing cold chill to minimal electronics to distanced half-guessed tones under an overlay of crackle and static and more, a sense of a multileveled response across media and technology to the horror.
