BERNARD XOLOTL: Procession (Fortuna Records, PO Box 1116, Novato, CA 94947) Truly a beautiful album in every respect. Procession is a collaboration between master of electronics Xolotl and virtuosic violinist Daniel Kobialka and represents the perfect fusion of electronic and classical influences.

Each of the four instrumental pieces features Kobialka's sweeping, mournful strings interwoven with Xolotl's melancholy synthesized orchestration, creating a lush, meditative mood which is thoroughly engaging. The production and arrangements are flawless, making this a very pleasurable listening experience. -Paul Lemos
