...percussive elements. Songs like A Paw in My Face and Silent reach their pinnacle when Willner unhesitatingly reverts to a quick change in key or instrumental device, always in a subtle and flourishing manner. The entire duration of the embracing A Paw in My Face sees the repetition of airy synths that are bolstered by a soft percussive...

...percussive way. He had violins too, playing pizzicato rhythm. The tuba can do a lot of things, but it can't do that-- but the string bass can. When the bass comes into the band is when jazz musicians realized there was a way to have a real relationship between harmonic motion and percussion beyond the piano. It appears first in the banjo, and...

...percussive ornaments and choral washes go drifting by. This soft grayness bears a very appealing feel, indeed. Things turn into a more serene realm with Presence, a candid piece on acoustic guitar. This is just a momentary rest, since the disturbing moods return in an enhanced manner with Oniromante this is really a portrait of limbo turned...

...percussive ideas, stretching time and syncopating lines in his short but meaningful solo. Askren intersperses a piano-like montuno into the melody on Wayne Shorters Yes or No, adding a strong drive to the open melody.

A CD Review of Mashed Buddhas Zen Conspiracy

2008-05-07 17:16:13 by sounni in Guest Music Bloggers
 
...percussive track over a phat drum beat, which makes this an actual song. This leads to the next cut, Temptation . This song has an easy groove that invites sampling for a rapper, but only one that is having an early 90s flashback. The multiple tracks of clavinet-sounding keyboards are simply fresh. Cordas solo has an unfettered joy in its tap...
