Album description

Many of the tracks on pharmacopia's 10th release "holistic audio" incorporate dreamy eclectic sonic elements around Pete Dragotta's digital trumpet. The funky and euro-groove side are not completely abandoned on tracks "cuffia trombone" and "transporté". Pete digs back into his jazz blowing roots on "unspoken dialects" which is reminiscent of his past colaboration with Bob Sharkey (Industrial Tee Pee) and Claude Coleman Jr. (Ween) during his days co-leading The James Quintet.

Die Kompositionen sind bis auf ein, zwei Stücke ausgesprochen kreativ und mit viel Liebe zum Detail ausgestattet. Komplexe Arrangements, die sich nicht schon beim ersten Hören abnutzen, sondern viel Raum und Spaß beim wiederholten Hören bieten.
Wermutstropfen in meinen Ohren sind manche Sounds der in verschiedenen Songs vorherrschenden Soloinstrumente, die arg nach Alleinunterhalter klingen.
Anstatt z.B. Posaunensamples aus der Plastikecke hätte ich lieber einen klar elektronischen Sound verwendet oder mir einen (echten) Posaunisten geleistet.

Ansonsten ist auch der Mix sehr gelungen - alles in allem hebt sich das Album auch bei jamendo wohltuend aus der Masse heraus. Ich bin neugierig auf mehr.

The songs are real creative and arranged with lots of real professional engagement. The arrangements won't bore you after listening to the tracks several times and still offer fun and listening adventure.

On some tracks I don't like the sound of the solo instruments e.g. trombone which sound kinda plastic to me. personally, I would have used another more electronic sound or I'd have afford a real musician.

All in all it's an album even outstanding at jamendo, worth to listen to more than one time and I'm looking forward to more tracks from this artist.

Salut à tous...

Je n'ai pas accroché sur cet album.

Il se laisse écouter, mais cela s'arrête là (je ne me le passerai pas en boucle). Il y a un je ne sais quoi qui me dérange dans les mélodies.
Pourtant j'ai bien aimé [to years two long too day]...

Je ne dirais pas que c'est mauvais, il y a du travail derrière, mais à mon avis, cet album aurait peut-être mérité de repasser quelques fois de plus "sur le métier".

Amicalement...
