About "Adagio For Strings (ASOT 1195)" by OnTune
onTune reworks Barber's elegy into a trance epic, trading the original's mournful strings for gated pads and a driving bassline. The result is a strange beautyβgrief accelerated into motion, as if sorrow could be outrun by a four-four beat. Haunting and relentless in equal measure.
