John presents the fall and resurrection in his own life through sound and music. On the \u2018<strong>New Moon<\/strong>\u2019 version, the <em>Dark Territory<\/em> hit \u2018<strong>Schmerztanz<\/strong>\u2019 opens this thirteen track CD. This song is one of my favorites and it is very danceable. Most other tracks are melodic gothic underground sounds with very big influences of ritual and holy scenes, together with ethnic folk melodies and rhythms.<\/p>\n<p>The second CD &#8216;<strong>Dark Moon<\/strong>&#8216; is a compilation of remixes, and some more EBM style material. Some are very nice, by bands like\u00a0<em>God&#8217;s Bow<\/em>,\u00a0<em>Angel Theory<\/em>\u00a0and my personal favorite\u00a0<em>Ah Cama-Sotz<\/em>, that bring most songs to a higher level. The serene atmospheres of the original sounds are mixed with a much darker background, some even with pounding electro beats.<\/p>\n<p>This double CD is available in a fantastic cardboard sleeve and reminds me of the old 7\u201d vinyl singles. Included is a nice booklet and some brilliant \u2018<strong>New Moon<\/strong>\u2019 pictures. So people who like a mix between ethnic and religious sounds with some dark rhythmic tunes added, better listen to\u00a0<em>Guflux<\/em>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Review by Peter Heselmans at\u00a0Peek-A-Boo Magazine, 8 januari 2015.
