Glad to see that you haven´t abandoned MB, misspoptart. Your comments on Pianoriental were very welcome, especially as they mirror what I feel about this album.
First hearing, I didn´t like it much, then it suddenly grew on me for a while, but now it´s withering again. As you suggest, it´s got this really busy vibe which is right on the borderline of irritating. The guy is a formidable player, but I really wish -and I´m not recommending that anyone try this at home- I really wish he would take some recreational drugs or something and slow down the pace a bit. Track after track of all that relentless dexterity gets rather exhausting - so I pretty much agree with you, misspoptart.
Anyway, many thanks for giving it a listen, and I´m sorry if it´s not really as interesting as it looks. For that reason I´m voting it disappointing, because that´s how it´s been for me tbh.
