Kurt Rosenwinkel - Heartcore
at the very least it will be a cool listen when you come home at 4am and the room is spinning. there are even a couple tracks that would work in a set.
samples:
it's the second one from the left.
...a collection of 11 original Rosenwinkel compositions that lay his typically elegant melodies over bold and unpredictable underpinnings. From the insistent martial drive of the opening title track, to the echoing chimes of the final cut, Heartcore traverses a musical landscape in which washes of sound surge under melodies, drum machines and synthesizers alternate with shakers and horns, and keening romantic interludes are punctuated by moments of raw bombast. The swaying Eastern rhythms of ?Your Vision? break down into meterless underwater cries. The Turkish coffeehouse evoked by ?Thought About You? is washed away in the final seconds by a shower of synthesizer bubbles. Even one of the records? most romantic moments, a flute solo in ?Love in the Modern World,? is inexplicably interrupted by a cluster of electronic beeps that epitomize Rosenwinkel?s urge to undercut clarity with uncertainty.
