buddyev Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 (edited) ECM are a trustworthy and carefully curated label so you know whatever they do its going to be interesting. I'm a big fan of John Surman who i discovered through the brilliant Thimar album, which also lead me to Anouar Brahem Edited April 14, 2015 by buddyev 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soundscape Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 (edited) I think Surman's music has such a spiritual quality. He uses synthesizers to great effect, and his circular breathing creates an absorbing minimalism. Edited April 14, 2015 by rehabit@ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viognier Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Lumen Drones Nils Økland Fiddles Per Steinar Lie Guitars Ørjan Haaland Drums I suspect this one is for the adventurous out there only. The name of the band gives it away. Usual ECM SQ but perhaps not your usual ECM release. For me impossible not to be sucked in by its hypnotic spell. Hauntingly beautiful fiddle. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It certainly is a nice album,Dave. I especially love the joyous piano track that closes the album.Egberto borrowed Ralph's guitar for the opening track on the Solo album,I believe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soundscape Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 I met the members of MGT after the little gig they played in Lawson last year *such a privilege!* and I asked Wolfgang what was his favourite Towner album. He replied that "Solo Live" had a huge influence on his formative years as a musician. Must get that one. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have quite a few Towner discs,but not this one.After reading some reviews I think I'd better add this one to the list.Some nice album cover art in this thead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
