BRUCE EISENBEIL SEXTET: Inner Constellation, Vol. 1 Nemu, 2007 Mixing highly complex compositional themes with extended stretches of improvisation, Eisenbeil experiments with concepts such as drawing “constellations” from points in a six-octave “tone field,” while juxtaposing and heaping contrasting emotions and colors in a noisy, crashing pile. The band grew tangentially from a project by Cecil Taylor, who also served as inspiration for the composition. It’s wild! Tracks 1-27 are a single, uninterrupted piece, divided into chunks ranging from 19 seconds to 5 minutes. Although meant to be heard all together, most of the tracks can work out of context (but obviously the endings will be pretty abrupt). Some of the longer tracks… 2. knotty guitar, angular melody 5. violin & guitar solo over fast drums 10. calm trumpet over surging band 11. relaxed jumble, sweet violin 15. speedy, melodic, pained sax solo 18. unresolved layers, bass/gtr solos 24. extended scratchy ambience 27. all comes together, melts away 28. scribbly, abstract guitar tones, bass & drums prowl in background 29. furtive conversation: lots of drums, squirrelly guitar & bass, groaning voice 30. relaxed acoustic guitar, rich drums, lots of space, pretty in an abstract way [ Fo ] 2-Sep-07 | ||
