AARON PARKS: Invisible Cinema Blue Note, 2008 MODERN JAZZ – An intriguing major-label debut from this 24-year old pianist. Parks establishes a unique identity right from the start, with a light touch and enigmatic, mirage-like harmonies. His tunes tend to begin with simple melodic themes, but soon morph into flowing explorations or tightly wound spirals, crafted by a bright, fluid quartet. All very good. Fo’s Picks: 1, 3, 4, 7, 8 1. 5:41 – light, propulsive snap: rolling melody embroidered w/upbeat patterns 2. 9:46 – gentle, pensive, builds strength, bright and flowing in the middle 3. 6:21 – suspenseful, cinematic tension with a rock touch; solos dig nervously 4. 2:47 – mysterious walking groove: simple melody builds and repeats 5. 2:54 – solo piano, enigmatic and flowing, nostalgic touches 6. 8:11 – disconnected phrases, shifting chords; active solos, plodding ending 7. 2:45 – walking interlude: folksy melody, country touches, sliding guitar 8. 9:34 – moody forward motion with Balkan touch; heroic guitar, tense drums 9. 4:53 – very pretty song, as warm and peaceful as a hug 10. 2:55 – solo piano, calm and nostalgic, a soft landing [ Fo ] 18-Oct-08 | ||
