i just happen to come across this whilst looking around on RYM for instrumental albums....and although this is far from that....the cover caught my attention almost immediately.....very "Story of the Eye"....so i downloaded it.... this is an amazing album (so far)....very soothing spacy music....trip hop i suppose....maybe some shoegaze type stuff....mixed with just haunting beautiful vocals.... |

Matthew Shipp—Art of the Improviser This guy is an absolutely brilliant jazz pianist who would have been an absolute superstar had he been born a generation earlier. He's worked with a variety of people outside the realm of jazz, from DJ Spooky to Anti-Pop Consortium. On this album his style is somewhat free jazz-ish, somewhat third stream-ish, but quite unique. He has this amazing way with low end piano rumbling that you just have to hear to understand. Both discs of this double album are live recordings with him playing with a (fantastically good) bassist and drummer on disc one and solo on disc two. I've been listening to this puppy several times a day for most of the past week. |

It's definitely more on the Post Rock side of things, but it has that same wonderfully bleak tone. EDIT: I'm enjoying the hell out of Mineral's &Serenading. Amazing stuff. |
