i love this album. Dhalius uses really interesting
and pleasing chord progressions .
Though the songs may not be sprawling masterpieces in themselvesthe music fits wonderfully with the titles and each piece has a unique feel . together as a whole i think the album cover reflects the contents very well , a patchwork of different styles and textures .
my favourites are "guilt", filled with melancholic reflection, "always egg in the morning" which somehow just seems to be a perfect match for the odd title, and "hero for a day" theme song for an average joe's generosity .
really a surprising dynamic of rapping/spoken word with long weaving melodies as well as the odd chorus hook ....
the flute on elastique what a great flavour with those taiko drums!!! throughout ,very interesting &efective merge of midiesque sounds with audio vocals . most effective on "grand bancs" imo - having almost the energy and movement of a live performance acheiving a great unique sound, reminding me of some kind of national anthem !!
space-kitch describes it well in all in all ,.. space-kitch hip-hop, while others like Les Annees a bizarrely excellent mix of old fashioned pop harmonies , spoken word , and discotheque !! ... and panpipes ...
listening to this music , you WILL smile ! i never thought it but this music genuinely does SOUND funny in a great way . the sound palette is really quite large yet all the sounds seem to merge together wonderfully on the canvas and the end production is perfecT (yes , to the 56 degree spit trajectory of a T) .
what a gift to be free ,
abs olutely amazing cant recommend enough
lots of different ideas , very creative !would describe it as some kind of new age instrumental folk pop ! Iparticularly liked the choir sounds for some strange reason - in fact i would have even liked to hear a voice on some tracks with the more singable melodies , because there are certainly singable melodies in there ( "harmonise" ," within me without you" !).
my favourite tracks were "time to reflect" {[great choice with the flutey instrument) , "when i find myself" (reminds me what music inside the elevator to heaven would sound like or something!! ] and "drop in the ocean" ( great guitar delay & choir :D)
and of course lovely picture on the cover art
an intriguing listen with great harmoies .
a low sparse piano opening on "place no one known" introducces differnt instruments of the wold which turns into a pleasant composition ,
I thought the mistake on the piano followed by a wollop in "combination" was comedy genius and i literally burst out laughing !! i can imagine a full length LP with quirky details like this could certinly be a joy to listen .
it's great to hear some music behind Marcela's voice after her solo voice song "Tell me Why" which showed off her fab voice but felt a bit bare .
after quite a moody broody first track (with effective backgroudn) on "No. 2" it was realy refreshing to hear the upbeat "with all my heart" I particalrltl liked the "baby " whisper very effective !!
i thought the lofi quality of "no. 2" added to the charm of the recording but i thinkmarcela could shine even more withsome better equipment .
Hello, i am sure you will like this album if you like odd, quirky music with an innocent charm.
the album is diverse in sounds and ideas but all the tracks unite with an endearing lofi, slightly naive quality... it's like digging into an old rusty toy chest , full of exotic delights . And at over an hour in length , that's over an hour of digging to find something you will cling to most !
the music ranges from dissonant destruction(but innocently, like a child playing) to beautiful haunting melodies ... and that's just the first two tracks !
nice cover art too
A nice little 'gem of sound' to find on Jamendo!!The little theme of telling a story is a nice touch, You can just imagine a narrator over the top ... "Once upon a time , far far away, in a land time forgot ... " just a bit on the short side , love to hear more !
this is great ! a wonderful idea for an album (people playing instruments they cant) and an interesting subject also . it proves to be quite a challenging listen , and it makes me wonder if the players really are this terrible or they are trying to be slightly 'avant garde' also !!! which kind of covers up their playing skills! good for them i say , and I would have also love to have heard a song where they try to play melodic harmonies and rhythms together with their limited skills , just for a change !
i did enjoy the kind of 'live jam' sessions the most ! it captures the spontaneous energy best . it's kind of like walking down the hallways of music practice rooms in a school! but the effects do add a charming variety to the album .
overall a very unique and delightful treasure to find !!
THe sounds on this album give off a very abstract feeling from the opening track which certainly has a feeling of being lost in a bizarre nightmare . then the second track which is probably what your life would sound like if you lived in the clock from Countdown!! ! Beneath the dense harmonies there are some beautiful chord changes going on (panopticon2 , panopticon5) which without I think the musc miht ujust fall apart , even though it feels on the verg of that anyway... Someting that feels like bing on the fragile verge of a large mental breakdown because the music certainly has a wondeerfully chaotic sound . I dont think you'd be able to tell if there was a wrong note in here yet Schizyfos has chosen al the right ones to give that feeling .
The album cover again sheds a well chosen mood onto the whole piece of music ... Abstract treelike structures and you get the feeling of delving very deep into the mind or the forest of something else here . I think Schizyfos is a very talented musician ,,long may it continue !
