5 out of 5 stars Metal from the Sky.......2001-11-04

Cities in Fog is Jeff's first real product. It showcases his interests in meterology, and it sounds like Seattle at night.

I don't know how many times I've heard metal from the sky, but (given the right typical low Seattle clouds) metal from the sky could be any night. Boeings gliding in over the industrial district, the (old) West Seattle drawbridge, the Port, the BN. Listening to it on KCMU (or just through the walls of my Rainier Valley shack) I knew that I had encountered the ambient equal of Eno.

The newer cities ain't half bad either.

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful.......2000-10-08

I must agree with the other review of this CD...defenitely listen with the lights off. My particular favorite is "Urban Pasture" on the first disk...a kind of muddled, post-apocalyptic sounding, barren yet textured landscape (if any of that makes sense). Incorporating everyday sounds of industry and machinary make this cd very interesting to listen to, I certainly recommend it.

5 out of 5 stars A true sonic excursion........1998-12-03

Greinke's soundscapes--both old and new (the discs contain a re-release of his 1985 work "Cities in Fog", and follows up with 1995's sequel to that album)--speak two stories at once: One, the sound of industry and the city, that ambience of the works of man. Two, the alienation towards which such industry ultimately leads; Greinke lets you know that you are alone, utterly alone, in a world of precise mechanics. The lack of both vocals and any sort of defined beat may scare off most listeners (although "Still Fall" from disc two may be an exception), but those who stay will find this true "industrial" music, and not today's version of heavy guitar and synthesizer. But it is still very, very cold. Listen with the lights off.
