Re: 2021 Work in Progress..ive
BENJAMIN CROFT
KEYBOARDIST AND COMPOSER I listened by chance a few days ago to a track from his second album and how it happens to me when I find it interesting, I went to find out everything about the artist and his path .... I learned a lot of information about Benjamin, a character that my intuition had interpreted well from the causal listening ... in the biography you will find all the news ... he mainly played jazz but later you discover that a jazz magazine JAZZWISE asks him to describe his preferences for the best 5 albums and here the surprise for me and for the magazine that expected 5 jazz albums is triggered and Benjamin declares instead: "Can't live without 1) Close To The Edge ..YES 2) Romantic Warrior ..RETURN TO FOREVER 3) Heavy Weather..WEATHER REPORT 4) UK ..UK 5) Hounds Of Love..KATE BUSH " From JAZZWISE MAGAZINE and also claims to hear and own many prog music albums in the photo some of his own "FAR AND DISTANT THINGS" is an excellent album very different from the first much more linked to Jazz, in this second album it explores new sounds, a cross between fusion and jazzrock played with great skill, helped in this realization by as many great artists .... In the album resist some tracks more attributable to jazz similar to those of the first album but given the good result of this new direction I am convinced that the next album will be even better and I do not shield that the surprises are over on the other hand the mix of preferences with YES and UK on the one hand and Joe Zawinul Jaco Pastorius Chick Korea Stanley Clarke on the other will surely influence the production of the next album… …. "The_Cashectomy" is the track I chose to include in my best of 2021 But as I said before, the whole album deserves attention.

Known for his extensive knowledge and experience in a multitude of music genres, he is mostly associated with jazz. At the age of 7, he began piano and trumpet lessons, later going on to study at Leeds College of Music. After graduating, he completed several contracts on international cruise lines and moved to the US. During this period, he toured the world twice, and worked with artists as diverse as Belinda Carlisle, Leslie Garrett, The Temptations and The Platters. Benjamin relocated to London in 2012, where he became a regular performer at Ronnie Scott’s, the Jazz Cafe, Dean St and The Pheasantry Pizza Express Jazz Clubs, The Vortex, among others, playing with the finest musicians on the scene. He has also performed in the West End Show ’ Straight From the Heart’, and on TV shows such as ‘The Voice’ and ‘Britain’s Got Talent’. In 2018, he recorded for Beautiful South founder Dave Hemingway’s latest project ’Sunbirds', and has been working as a session musician, composer and arranger on several projects over the years. In March 2019, Benjamin released his first album ‘10 Reasons To...’ on 33Jazz Records. 12 original compositions reflecting his unique style and sound ; an audacious crossover between genres that seduced the press, and the public. His second album, "Far and Distant Things", was recorded throughout 2020. An ambitious project featuring legendary musicians from the US and more. It will be released on Ubuntu Music on August, 6th 2021. "FAR AND DISTANT THINGS" by BENJAMIN CROFT About the album: March 2018. The production of my first album had recently concluded and I was keen to keep the momentum going and keep writing. I decided that this new project would have no compromises. I would try to improve and expand on all aspects of my previous album. I initially contacted a selection of my favourite musicians in the UK to play on the tracks; Andy Davies (trumpet), Gareth Lockrane (flute), Henry Thomas and Flo Moore (bass), Tristan Mailliot and Laurie Lowe (drums). Helen Vollam, principal trombone of the BBC Symphony Orchestra and Carter Arrington (guitar) were also added to the roster around this period. The writing process continued and I envisioned the UK musicians augmented by a US guest star, or two… In the fall of 2019, I sent out messages to several legendary artists and lifelong inspirations. To my surprise, all showed interest. I now had an all star line-up! Randy Brecker, Allen Vizzutti (trumpet), Frank Gambale, Barry Finnerty, Mike Miller (guitar), and Chad Wackerman (drums). Back in 2019, we had no idea what was just around the corner... The majority of the guest stars had tour schedules that lasted for the remainder of 2020. At the time, I was led to believe I only had a window of the first two weeks of January to record them. The compositions were recorded in London at Metropolis, Greystoke and The Church Studios. The studios were selected for their vast tracking space and unique selection of equipment. A huge arsenal of keyboards was used on this album. Among them, the Yamaha CS-80, Minimoog, Prophet 5 and Freddie Mercury's Fazioli grand piano! Eight of the compositions were tracked between January and early March. Then, disaster struck… March 24th 2020 was a day I will never forget… The 24th just happens to be my birthday. It also just happened to be the day I was scheduled to record my final three pieces. Sadly this was not meant to be. The UK entered national lockdown and everything was cancelled… My time off was used wisely to refine the compositions and by late summer, we were allowed back in the studio. Tracking was completed at RAK studios in London. At the start of this project, I only had one person in mind to mix the tracks; Stephen W Tayler. His work can be heard on many albums that inspired my compositions. The album was mixed at Peter Gabriel’s Real World Studios. Production eventually wrapped up in early 2021. Barry Grint, whose previous clients include the likes of David Bowie, Madonna and Prince, mastered the tracks at Air Studios. The unique artwork for the album is provided by Juno Award Winner Hugh Syme. His works are firmly planted in the public conscience. He has designed for Rush, Dream Theater, Whitesnake and many others. I am immensely proud of this album. A true portrait of my musical mind. My love of jazz, rock and classical are all captured. The eleven compositions on this album represent my childhood dreams and fantasies. Utopian and dystopian, heroes and villains, all depicted. Concepts I regarded as far and distant things… Out on August 6th 2021 on Ubuntu Music Last edited by nicola : 10-29-2021 at 05:49 PM.

Re: 2021 Work in Progress..ive
Isildurs Bane & Peter Hammill
This time the track I chose belongs to a fusion of a group Isildurs Bane and Peter Hammill 2 totally different ways of interpreting music but following their meeting they managed to create a very captivating and sometimes hypnotic sound from art pop and prog to neoclassical and avant-garde all held together by one of the most singular and influential voices of the prog music… Peter Hammill… always open to experimentation and returned to the high levels reached in the first Van Der Graff Generator albums…. "Pawn Hearts", "Still Life" and "Godbluff" albums After the first experience resulted in the realization of the excellent "in Amazonia" Isildurs Bane and Peter Hammill continue the collaboration by making an equally interesting album "IN DISEQUILIBRIUM" made in 2 suites, one of 3 tracks and the other of 4 tracks I took an excerpt from the album review from Isildurs Bane's facebook page and is edited by From Zachary Nathanson's review __________________________________________________ ______ This is another challenge from the ensemble. It is one of the most surreal, wackiest, and insane releases I’ve listened to. There’s this crossover between ambient music, Frank Zappa, elements of the Rock in Opposition movement that blends well with the insane textures of both Gentle Giant and Goblin. And to be allowed to have King Crimson drummer Pat Mastelotto to lend a helping hand with the ensemble, it shows that Isildurs Bane are more than just a band, but a family helping others to bring In Disequilibrium to life. The challenges inside the group’s labyrinth, just got even bigger! From the opening 3-part title-track, it is like a movie being brought to life. You can hear elements of ‘The Sleepwalkers’ thrown in along with the xylophones channeling the midsection of ‘Peaches En Regalia’ from the Hot Rats period. Mats Johansson is like a conductor giving his bandmates and Peter directions on where he wants them to go. He has given each of the members, a lot of machine gun ammunitions to create these rapid firing textures. I can hear both Hällkvist and Croné doing these chase segments for Hammill to catch up to those insane time signatures to create this alternate score for Robert Clampett’s Bugs Bunny short from 1943, Falling Hare. Then, Johansson and Katrine Amsler share this futuristic temperature rising for Hammill’s voice to come in at the right moment. It’s one of those crazy and wackiest sequences that visions the ensemble and Hammill transforming the second half into a chaotic groove! The third and final section of the title-track takes us into the heart of the jungle channeling Peter Gabriel’s score to Martin Scorsese’s controversial classic,The Last Temptation of Christ. It gives us a sign for revelations to come where we witness a renewal to start new chapter in our daily lives. But it isn’t just that, it’s a new beginning for them to press the rewind button and start all over. Peter lets listeners know that there’s light at the end of the tunnel. And the big bright lights on the arrangements gives the ensemble enough rope to reach towards the surface and seeing the sunlight again. The four-part suite ‘Gently (Step by Step) closes the album. It becomes a calm after the storm with its piano, synthesizers, and xylophone setting up the empty ghost town of the dystopian wasteland that people are finally getting out of. You can almost feel a pin drop as the ghost-like vocals fill the city with Eagles soaring through the sky moving away from the nightmarish landscapes into a field of dreams. You can hear aspects of Peter’s solo work from The Silent Corner and the Empty Stage thrown into the mix. The symphonic structures along with its mournful organ work, Luca Calabrese’s trumpet echoes the funeral arrangements while Liesbeth’s violin sends the last rite to the city that once was beautiful, now a pile of rubble. Once you get to the third section, it becomes this epic ambient voyage that carries bits and pieces of Popol Vuh’s Aguirre as the survivors are sailing into unknown lands. Peter then gives a sermon to the fallen heroes inside his church as the musicians help churchgoers bring joy and happiness in their lives. They also have to understand that while they’ll never forget what has happened, it will be a part of their history that we will the next generation in the years to come, not to make the same mistakes again and again. In Disequilibrium is another welcoming return for the collaboration of Isildurs Bane’s partnership with Peter Hammill. As I’ve mentioned earlier, it is beautiful, sinister, epic, and unexpected changes that will make your mind blown away. Yes it may not be everyone’s cup of coffee per se, but it is like a stick of dynamite ready to explode at any second. __________________________________________________ _____________ Hi friends 2021 Work in Progress..ive These are my best tracks of 2021 Track Title-Group or Artist-Album The Pilgrim Suite -Andrew Stone-The Pilgrim Discworld - Projector - Glass Kites -Glass Kites II The Trial of the King - Chromatic Aberration -The Trial of the King 4Th Dimension - ProAge-Wymiar Claustrophobia-Eyesberg-Claustrophobia Rainy Sunday-Maxxess-Reactivate Colorbox-Raven Sad-The Leaf And The Wing Bit By Bit-Syrinx Call-Mirrorneuron Power Trip Career Aspirations-Lucas Lee -Sindrome De Estocolmo The Darkness in the Light-Transatlantic-The Absolute Universe: Forevermore Soul_Of_Hundred_Lives-Inner Prospekt-Canvas Two Flare_2-Richard_Barbieri-Under a Spell Cosmic Krautrock-Stephan Thelen-Fractal Guitar 2 Rite_Of_Accession-Elephant9-Arrival Of The New Elders In Discipline And With Love-Kerrs Pink-Presence Of Life Marcha_De_Sonidos_Parte_2-Black Expression-Regreso A Casa Crossing-Cast-Vigesimus Alice_Krige_Parts_1_and_2-Heard Of Istinct-Unravel Altitude-Lifesigns-Altitude In_1985-Cosmograf-Rattrapante Sailing_To_Byzantium-Nad Sylvan-Spiritus Mundi Halo_Drive-Corrado Rustici -Interfulgent Tiresias-Noisy Diners-The Princess of the Allen Key Alice-The Mad Lab-Design of Experiments The Real History Of Tom Wheel, Pt. 1 (The Curse) -Fabricio Pipini(feat.Platinum)-Phantasicah (A Dreamer's Tale) Walk_Away-Bernardo Lanzetti-Horizontal Rain Broken Windows-Zygon-Earth And Sky The Ascent-The Emerald Down-To Touch The Sky Connecting_The_Dots-Confusion Field -Disconnection Complete Day_And_Age-Frost* -Day And Age Haunted_House-Joe_Bailey -Ghosts Winter-Resistor -The 5th Season Book Of Coming Forth By Day-Blacksmith Tales-The Dark Presence Iron John-The Samurai Of Prog -The Lady And The Lion And Other Grimm Tales Go Viral-Sylvan-One to Zero Room 101-Karmamoi-Room 101 Hidden Land-Daniel Eliseev Project -Lost Humanity Apollo-Big Big Train - Common Ground Dissolution-Smalltape -THE HUNGRY HEART Dark World-Metamorphosis-I'm Not A Hero White Ghosts-Alessandro Corvaglia-Out Of The Gate Beyond the Years-The Neal Morse Band -Innocence & Danger Shanghai_to_Samarkand-Steve Hackett -Surrender Of Silence The_Cashectomy-Benjamin Croft -Far And Distant Things Red-The Watch-The Art of Bleeding Added In Disequilibrium, part 3-Isildurs Bane & Peter Hammill-In Disequilibrium from http://www.progarchives.com/ .... here the youtube version of the track https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhGsACQ4nvk GOOD LISTENING Last edited by nicola : 11-24-2021 at 09:15 AM.

MONARCH TRAIL
Third Album and Third Center for Monarch Trail and "Wither Down" not only continues the sequence of albums in a positive way but also raises the level of Track Quality to the point that it becomes difficult to choose one as the best ... in the previous 2 albums some less interesting track was here Ken Baird who continues to be the composer of all songs cancels the decrease in attention and creates an excellent album ... exceptional use of the piano in the opening song which then also gives the title of the album ... among those who have commented on the album more than someone has seen in the music of this album references to the first IQs…. and others a fusion of the styles of Genesis and Yes… .. I just want to thank the Monarch Trail for giving us some more excellent music. The track I have chosen is "Megalopolitana" Hi friends 2021 Work in Progress..ive These are my best tracks of 2021 Track Title-Group or Artist-Album The Pilgrim Suite -Andrew Stone-The Pilgrim Discworld - Projector - Glass Kites -Glass Kites II The Trial of the King - Chromatic Aberration -The Trial of the King 4Th Dimension - ProAge-Wymiar Claustrophobia-Eyesberg-Claustrophobia Rainy Sunday-Maxxess-Reactivate Colorbox-Raven Sad-The Leaf And The Wing Bit By Bit-Syrinx Call-Mirrorneuron Power Trip Career Aspirations-Lucas Lee -Sindrome De Estocolmo The Darkness in the Light-Transatlantic-The Absolute Universe: Forevermore Soul_Of_Hundred_Lives-Inner Prospekt-Canvas Two Flare_2-Richard_Barbieri-Under a Spell Cosmic Krautrock-Stephan Thelen-Fractal Guitar 2 Rite_Of_Accession-Elephant9-Arrival Of The New Elders In Discipline And With Love-Kerrs Pink-Presence Of Life Marcha_De_Sonidos_Parte_2-Black Expression-Regreso A Casa Crossing-Cast-Vigesimus Alice_Krige_Parts_1_and_2-Heard Of Istinct-Unravel Altitude-Lifesigns-Altitude In_1985-Cosmograf-Rattrapante Sailing_To_Byzantium-Nad Sylvan-Spiritus Mundi Halo_Drive-Corrado Rustici -Interfulgent Tiresias-Noisy Diners-The Princess of the Allen Key Alice-The Mad Lab-Design of Experiments The Real History Of Tom Wheel, Pt. 1 (The Curse) -Fabricio Pipini(feat.Platinum)-Phantasicah (A Dreamer's Tale) Walk_Away-Bernardo Lanzetti-Horizontal Rain Broken Windows-Zygon-Earth And Sky The Ascent-The Emerald Down-To Touch The Sky Connecting_The_Dots-Confusion Field -Disconnection Complete Day_And_Age-Frost* -Day And Age Haunted_House-Joe_Bailey -Ghosts Winter-Resistor -The 5th Season Book Of Coming Forth By Day-Blacksmith Tales-The Dark Presence Iron John-The Samurai Of Prog -The Lady And The Lion And Other Grimm Tales Go Viral-Sylvan-One to Zero Room 101-Karmamoi-Room 101 Hidden Land-Daniel Eliseev Project -Lost Humanity Apollo-Big Big Train - Common Ground Dissolution-Smalltape -THE HUNGRY HEART Dark World-Metamorphosis-I'm Not A Hero White Ghosts-Alessandro Corvaglia-Out Of The Gate Beyond the Years-The Neal Morse Band -Innocence & Danger Shanghai_to_Samarkand-Steve Hackett -Surrender Of Silence The_Cashectomy-Benjamin Croft -Far And Distant Things Red-The Watch-The Art of Bleeding In Disequilibrium, part 3-Isildurs Bane & Peter Hammill-In Disequilibrium Added Megalopolitana-Monarch Trail -Wither Down from http://www.progarchives.com/ Last edited by nicola : 11-10-2021 at 04:00 PM.

AMAROK
Amarok is back with a new album! Michał and Marta Wojtas are joined by their old friends – Kornel Popławski and Konrad Zieliński. The result of this collaboration is the album “Hero” – a spiritual sequel to the 2017 “Hunt”. Much like the aforementioned „Hunt”, the upcoming album presents a fusion of musical styles known and loved by fans and critics alike. Here the sounds of progressive rock folk and ambient mix together, complemented by a wonderful and subtle guitar virtuosity. The soundscape feels exotic, thanks to the use of uncommon instruments such as violin, theremin, wind gong, djembe, harmonium, flute, and rainsticks. The pieces have a strong lyrical layer, with their vocals referencing the ongoing digitalization of our life and the unsure position of a human in the future world. There are also beautiful instrumental fragments reminiscent of film scores similar in style to the depictions from the War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells. Hero is a story of a protagonist, fighting for survival, going up against reality and themselves. It’s about everyone courageously facing the unknown. The lyrics based on this idea, also touch on the current pandemic and the state of the world. The upcoming album „Hero” is a collection of innovative, fresh, and spatial compositions with just as good lyrical parts, that inquires into our current questions about the future. We recommend spending a while to relax, reflect and enter the world of this unique music. The climate of each and every piece mesmerizes the first time you hear it and brings you back again and again.
