Notes
After the album was released, I moved my notes about each song into a dedicated page which you may find here:
Fruit of the Steel Tree : Solo Flight
Alternatively, follow the album link in the main menu above on this page.
What we’re About
Melodic progressive rock songs and instrumental interludes, a touch of 70’s influence but a product of the dystopian Now.
“Very smooth, hi-tech sounding delivery…” – Chris Jemmett, alt.music.yes
“This guy is awesome.” – Dazed, on the Carvin Forum.
“..on a rare occasion you just have to conclude that the prog world should be feasting upon the birth of a new and promising act. That’s exactly the case with this [first] album.”
– Theo Verstrael, DPRP.net
“I find this new album attractive, [..] slightly less appealing than the 2014 debut. But as that is often the case with great artists, let it not distract you from trying this fine album. Especially those that are interested in bands that play varied, cleverly made, well played and sung [..], this might just be your cup of tea.”
– Theo Verstrael, DPRP.net
Great insight into how to develop a track from a simple starting point and how different sounds give it another feel. In particular I like the journey and development over time, just shows you that what doesn’t work for you today could work well in the future with different technology.
I would recommend you make it into a Youtube video as it really is an excellent source of inspiration that a lot of people could learn from. I only found this site by pure chance but glad I did. Nice track too.
