Gentō is the first album emerging from the highly anticipated collaborative project from guitar maestro Steve Rothery (Marillion) and electronic visionary Thorsten Quaeschning (Tangerine Dream), called Bioscope.
Each of the five instrumental tracks takes its inspiration from man's endearing fascination with the moving image. They weave together Rothery’s emotive, melodic guitar work with Quaeschning’s expansive soundscapes, creating a mesmerizing journey through light and darkness, memory, and imagination, featuring an amazing performance by Elbow’s drummer Alex Reeves on all tracks. With soaring guitar solos that evoke classic progressive rock to hypnotic sequencer-driven passages reminiscent of Berlin School electronica, the album flows like a soundtrack to an unmade film.
