We may have a contender for AOTY for yours truly. Fusion meets Krautrock with a slight avant tinge, although that doesn't even come close to describing this band's true sound. HUUUUGE big band a la Duke Ellington playing everything but straight up big band jazz.) Krakatau - Water Near A Bridge (Organ, bass and drums conjure up a modern throwback album taking you straight back into TD Alpha Centauri era.)

Read your Red Buddha review yesterday, that seems like an awesome experience
Those other two albums must be great, I'll have to listen to those

Guldbamsen wrote: Ohh it is Sam One of the most unique sounding albums in my collections. You could say that Red Buddha is like a second cousin to the Italian band Aktuala, although they really don't sound alike.......but there is that omnipresent usage and drive of the percussion instruments featured in both. It's an experience allright, and the more you get into it the more those hidden melodies start to appear. Fire! Orchestra is an acquired taste, or so I've been told It is however one of the most successful modern bands to play "difficult" music (although it has a very fluid and psychedelic feel to it). They've played numerous of sold-out gigs in Copenhagen - and to folks who know absolutely nothing of prog and classic fusion.  Krakatau? You're on your own matey! Nahh I remember you digging some Krautrock, but this is in the more unfathomable end of the spectrum. Approach with caution my friend

Ok, I'll check those first two albums, I still have some early TD albums to check first... and a lot of Krautrock... and a lot of PE

Yep, too much music to discover and only two ears
I was going to listen to the first Solaris a few month ago, but I forgot about it. Good thing that I write those things on a text file now

Right, because you also check new releases from other genres? I think the only new non-prog releases I listened are from portuguese bands

I will have to also check it

I also don't listen only to prog but in other genres I rarely feel the urge to discover new music like I feel with prog. Good for you, though

ELO - Face the Music
Solstafir - Otta
Latin Mass - Haydn
Piero E I Cottonfields
Dio - Last in Line

Well, technically it was yesterday iso today, but who cares...

Fantastic stuff really, though I doubt I will like it more than that classic debut. It has more emphasis on ethnical themes which I really dig, I don't see it as a continuation of that first album but who cares? It is still great music with a lot of striking moments. I can definitely see you enjoying this album.

Thanks, my friend, your word is reason to purchase it enough! So it seems like they've simply used the `brand name' for attention, but I don't care too much if the music itself is good!


My choices tonight:

Hoelderlin - s/t
Sensations Fix - Visions' Fugitives
Tetragon - Stretch - A repetitive but cool instrumental Hammond/scorching guitar knockout from 1971, haven't spun this in years.

Tangerine - Sorcerer 2014 - what to say about this...The main disc is a superb reimagining and expanding of the original soundtrack in their vintage era style, while the second disc is effortlessly cool, floating ambient with light dance elements and is far and away some of the best music they've produced in yeeeeeeears! Each album would be incredible on their own, but together it's a perfect double CD set!
