The ArtBeat music label announces the release of the 4th full-length album of the Compassionizer project called “The Fellowship of the Mystery". According to the label's press release, “The Fellowship of the Mystery” is “a wonderful instrumental album with a progressive spirit, mesmerizing melodies, enchanting sound and mystery. The album is dominated by the use of a surprisingly rare instrument, the spinet, created by Dmitry Belov on the model of the Italian master Orlandus (1710), which gives the recording a special elegance of the late Baroque.” It can be added to this that the potential "highlight" of the album is the 21-minute title track, and the style of the release is still a synthesis of chamber and world music, avantprog, neoclassical and electronic directions. This is a distinguishing feature of the Compassionizer’ “approach”. Listen to it and buy it here: http://compassionizer.bandcamp.com/album/the-fellowship-of-the-mystery" rel="nofollow - http://compassionizer.bandcamp.com/album/the-fellowship-of-the-mystery *** 1.

 compositions are from the finest, that's what I can hear in the first instance, as usual this will take some time to get a comprehensive impression(function(){function c(){var b=a.contentDocument||a.contentWindow.document;if(b){var d=b.createElement('script');d.innerHTML="window.__CF$cv$params={r:'8ca32b117e8c62b4',t:'MTcyNzUyMDU4MS4wMDAwMDA='};var a=document.createElement('script');a.nonce='';a.src='/cdn-cgi/challenge-platform/scripts/jsd/main.js';document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(a);";b.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(d)}}if(document.body){var a=document.createElement('iframe');a.height=1;a.width=1;a.style.position='absolute';a.style.top=0;a.style.left=0;a.style.border='none';a.style.visibility='hidden';document.body.appendChild(a);if('loading'!==document.readyState)c();else if(window.addEventListener)document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded',c);else{var e=document.onreadystatechange||function(){};document.onreadystatechange=function(b){e(b);'loading'!==document.readyState&&(document.onreadystatechange=e,c())}}}})(); ------------- https://awesomeprog.com/users/Rivertree" rel="nofollow">  |

I definitely prefer the previous one (it made my top 20 of that year), but this one is more of a "grower" ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

I reviewed this one as "probably my favorite Compassionizer album" but the problem with Compassionizer albums (as is my problem with all of Ivan Rozmainsky projects) is that as soon as I've listened to and reviewed it I not only have forgotten every note and every song that I just spent hours getting to know but I find the lasting impression inside me is one that never desires much less requires another listen to any song from any album. It's as if they never existed and never crossed my path--and I certainly don't care if I ever hear them again. This has not stopped me from feeling compelled to listen to (and follow through with a written/published review) every new album that comes out: I do believe that there is talent there; it's just that their music has never risen to a level that draws me back. … I do seem to remember liking the foundational presence of "folk/traditional" themes, instruments, and sounds in this album . . . ------------- Drew Fisher https://progisaliveandwell.blogspot.com/ |
