Hi. Apart from what is my opinion about value or quality of their music , I think they are Progressive Rock band. Perhaps I don't like their music but it's not relevant to their music genre (be Prog or not) . I mean there are many Prog Rock band that I don't like them BUT they are Prog Rock and this is important in this thread.
Honestly I think they deserve to be in "Chart" and I guess 60%-70% they will accepted in PA (IMO).

Don't you trust teams of collabs who listened to way more albums than me and trained to fit words to music according to what's been defined as genres !? Several tracks could do in non prog albums, but at least the 5th, 9th and 10th are easy for me to call prog. Crossover prog must be the right genre... After a last minute edit, here's what I have anyway: Anything you want=Experimental hard funk Drifting Away=Electro pop The Laughing Man=Ethno pop Molecular= Mellow ambient dub song Abbrev.= New wave / RIO / math Ferguson= Ambient... In Lucid Moments= Ambient soul Little Gods= Experim "new age" funk Paper Trail= New spacey prog A Memory Suite: including The Passion Flower Bears No Fruit, A Mind Full of Mirrors, Star Gazer, A Night Journey= Ambient with some new prog I'm no musician by academic standards but remain fond of using music softwares, sometimes writing pieces from beginning to end but also very often working stuff out of jams – maybe I'll "release" something more one day, having felt secure enough to upload pieces, but often resolving to improve some of them later... More on my "homepage" / links from there... |

I wasted large money for my fav works (I cant call my works ART. its not fair ) . In 2009 my younger brother died and this impressed me hardly. He was my nearest friend too and after that I never touched my instruments till now. Thanks.

Whatever your brother would think best and would be proud of you to do: share & celebrate music on PA !
I can read arabic and farsi without too much difficulty, but my vocabulary is very basic so online poetry (and online translators) will be an easier way than books. Peter Komenzind name not far from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Camenzind Right now going to read articles on Iran music policy... Edited by jayem - November 05 2015 at 13:18 |

I used this spell because I had a meant : Komenzind. I know this spell can't be correct but ...
Very interesting. I really shocked. Can you read Farsi? Its very very good news.
I have my songs "Chords" and "Riffs" and "Lyrics". Perhaps you like them and used them. I worked on "European Minor" melodies in my last album.

Hi. Now they released their second album : "A Memory of Errors Volume 2". I think they deserve to listen by one of the team's members. Perhaps I mistake about their Sub Genre but I think they are "Progressive Rock" band.

There was an earlier album too (a 2013 release called 'Rotation'), so 'A Memory of Errors Volume 2' would really be their third. The collective's first album can be streamed at https://danielcrommie.bandcamp.com/album/rotation, and you can read DPRP's review of it at: http://www.dprp.net/reviews/201467.php#dcsoundcollective. I really wouldn't call this music Crossover Prog tbf - if it belongs on the site (and I believe that it probably does) then I can only imagine it in Eclectic Prog. There is another quite thorough review of the 'Rotation' album on The Progressive Aspect site: http://theprogressiveaspect.net/blog/2014/10/07/dc-sound-collective-rotation/. Read that, and I think you will understand why.
Any of our highly esteemed collabs want to throw in their two penn'orth regarding this music?

After listened to "A Memory of Errors Vol 2" ,I dubt about my suggestion. Its far from Xover Prog in my ears and honestly I don't know what is their sub-gen. Maybe Experimental or something in this kind of stuffs.
Thanks for your recommendations. I must read and listen more to understand them.

I think "Eclectic Prog" fits the bill. More importantly, I think it is just really good music
