Tripcycle RIO / Avant - prog

Thanks, will check.

Funny, I stumbled upon this band's Myspace last week and have been enjoying their music, which seems a mixture of elements (jazz, space-rock, psychedelic elements, ambient-ish, disco etc), which is why I think also the Eclectic team should have a listen.
A very enjoyable listen!

Nice!  

Now I'm checking their MySpace samples ...



Wonderful stuffs, indeed they have definite essence of Space, Avant, Jazz, Funk, etc. etc. (Vang is my fave!)
Do support Assaf's opinion, find they can be fit for Eclectic.

That's funny, I thought of Petrovaradin too.


This is a hard nut to crack. Unique and bizarre music.

At moments, it sounds so experimental it falls without the scope of this web site - which is experimental, but not Prog Rock. On the other hand, I might see it fit in avant prog and there's a strong spleen of Art Rock in overall palette. There's even same jazz fusion thrown in (as stated in their myspace influences). Some post-rock mood surely.

But there's much more under the surface. This is carefully crafted, and logical (and very clever too)  evolution of the existing school - if I know anything about the Serbian scene. There are traces of Darkwood Dub, Neocekivana Sila, Vroom and other trip-hop/dub/psych/jam/space/whatever bands emerged from the area. Even those pop-rock guitar moments that remind of U2 are not incidental, they're implicit quotations of Disciplina Kičme, another cult experimental band from the 80's.

However, if the origins were innovative, experimental and arguably prog, this one sums them up.

This one is actually one of those bands 100% worth of a pure Eclectic Prog tag which are rarely seen these days in our sub.

To cut the crap, I'm giving the thumbs up; let's wait and see what my team mates have to say.

Please do not be hasty Svetonio, Eclectic Team are so busy in PA and their "real" life that they need more time to evaluate Tripcycle.

Any updates?

Sorry for waiting Svetonio! Tripcycle are approved for Eclectic...I will add them soon (and I mean soon).

Added here.

THANKS FOR THE SUPPORT!!!!
