Solo electric bass – minimal, chill, resonating. Between rock classical and jazz. Leans slightly new age but it’s great there. Very down-tempo, with lots of space to feel the harmonies. Short contemplative pieces. Pretty surprising melody lines. Rock-solid rhythms, intriguing shapes. Most tracks fade out by 10 seconds left. 1. Rhythmic drone under simple but lush chords. 4. Fast but soft strumming under a chill melody line. *5. Catchy melody line that belongs in a David Lynch movie. After one minute some background sounds come in and the melody line gets slightly eastern sounding. 6. Almost a slow rock song. *9. Kind of a rock song. Great. *13. Almost classical guitar sounding, nice out-of-synch rhythms between two lines the last minute. 14. Slightly eerie/dissonant. 17. Super sparse and slow. Pretty. 19. A track called “the nature of solitude” that has 2 notes in the first 13 seconds :) *20. I can’t think of anything special to say about this track, but I really like it. 22 and 23. yummy dissonant chords in the middle. 23 has 15 seconds of silence at 1:10 left. 24. Crunchy rhythmic background riff, wandering contemplative sparse melody. Second half rocks, is very pretty. Kind of a strange track really. Very end is awesome out-of-synch. |
