The guitar parts are perfect and create a consistent mood throughout. Great control and use of effects across the entire album. The mood is relaxed and yet precise, and the drum tracks add to the momentum of each song, and work well with the guitar riffs. I hope we hear more from this artist.
When Ivan1984 dives into an album I also know that the music will be fascinating and amazing. I would like to see the cinematic results of an Ivan1984 screenplay with this album as the soundtrack. Thank you for the fantastic and metaphoric tone poems. This is the experimental stuff that keeps me coming back to Jamendo for. Now, I'll quietly move into the 7th dimension and listen for a moment......
Rhythms of metallic objects entangled in debate. Scratching and chewing remanants of industry that interferes with natural sounds and breath; the piano tries to calm the patient while he stretches his neck for a final breath. Then the orchestra and piano try once again to have their conversation. What is the final outcome of the patient? Is this nirvana or a clever relapse back to the job-site in Zion City? Do we think that Zion would keep safe from the all-consuming machinery, or is this machinery the only way to create Zion? Thanks for the journey, either way.
Listening passively to this in the background, I was on the second go-round when it struck me how pleasant and energetic the music was. The third time through, I grabbed my electric-violin and flowed with the sound-scapes as if this was the best fusion rhythm section I could ever find to jam with. It also struck me to compare with some groups like Enigma, that seem to cross the new-old thresholds to what I call neo-classical fusion on my Pandora radio station. Bravo on "Transedenz" and "Wind" especially. I love the flow of this album - good modal chord changes and natural sounding drumming. A U2, Rush type of pulsation! I'm jamming with this again tomorrow.
Another treasure hidden in the depths of Jamendo. This is a very good sonic experience; thanks for the recently discovered journey. I like "Trial of Dust" and "Celestial Solvents" unique sounds and the way they are blended.
Well developed phrasing, thoughtful use of background tracks, and interesting use of rhythmic sounds to syncopate the drum tracks. I enjoyed "Spiritual Rain", "Love's Theory", and "Kim's Song" the best because of the overall song structure and mood, but the strong riffs on the other songs are interesting too. With an additional jazz-rock instrument (saxophone, jazz-organ, or electric-violin) these songs could really take off and soar. I hope other Jamendo listeners catch on soon; this is so much better than the repetitious techno stuff. My only critical remark would be that the rhythm guitar track on "My Blue World" sounds slightly out of tune with the lead; nice lead part though.
I enjoyed the blending of styles, and transition from one section to another. I like the lead guitar melodic parts. Some of the songs seem to need more of this type of melodic lead, and this music could be a fantastic background track for lyrical new-age style vocals. The mix was very smooth and pleasing to the ear. Good luck to your musical endeavors.
