Song: Fractured (2012)
Reviewer: Floyd Kelly
Positive Comments: We like to play this kind of experimental music when we have our abstract art gatherings every month. I know of some big dark art pieces that would go well with this playing as a sensory input here in the gallery. The dark guitars and the muted, scratchy, “Battlestar Galactica” robotic-style sounds in this piece would be perfect for when we fire up the holographic displays in the planetarium.
Constructive Comments: I like the mystery set up in the beginning. There seems to be a thickness in the mix and some of the elements are held back – drums were noticeable. A few spots I think the robotic instrument could have been replaced with something a little more meaningful – there’s a violin passing that was very pleasant towards the end that would have been nice solo’d up earlier. This is a unique piece. Have a great day.
