 7th record by Hox Vox; it's a story about a doped killer on the way to catch his victim, during a whole night in Savannah (GA). Five scenes include an introduction (The Wanderer, a joke on Iggy's "The Passenger"), where the killer wake up from drugs effects, and the subsequent route through the latin area (La Posada de Joaquín Ortega, genre latin jazz), downtown (Downtown Strut, funky), actually on Savannah waterline (Port of Savannah, avantprog). Last three minutes of blistering hysterical chase are enclosed in ending track Gotcha (hardtek).

Man, you change crank those things out! I can't imagine what a good work ethic you must have to get so much done so fast |

Heh, interesting stuffs. Mysterious ethnic and primeval flavour, keen and lyrical synthesizer sounds, a warm & gentle horn section, a bit tragic and beautiful wind instruments' shots ...  ------------- http://www.facebook.com/damoxt7942" rel="nofollow">

Thank you very much, Captain!  You won't believe I'm also working on another 3 records  , one is about dada/surrealism output (my favorite contemporary art/literature movements after futurism), then the second part of Hurry Up Harry (will be more or less something like "Venetian Snares meets Les Claypool and Atari Teenage Riot") and another record of extreme music.Plus I'm preparing "The Wandering" movie, in five parts/videoclips, following this record story. I'm fast because 1) I write soundtracks for stories I invent (continuously), so I always "got a plan", I will never make a collection of various tracks 2) I don't know how (I barely know notation, I compose by ear) but I can imagine the whole final track, with all the arrangements, so I don't lose any time in tryouts; I'm very near to timings for jazz records, which are often played live, sometimes even with no postproduction or adding/substituting parts. And it come in my mind a whole record every few days: I wrote down the skeleton of Etoile and Das Chamaleon in a whole single night (for skeleton I mean basic drums and bass sections - in the case of electronic tracks, the main keyboard and drums). ------------- http://www.missero.it/hoxvox">

Well, still I'm not able to cook decently, or repair a puncture on my bike wheel, or understand by myself how to compile a tax form (well, in Italy they are incredibly complex, 1000 more than USA or Canada). Everybody got a few qualities and a lot of defects, many of them particularly ridiculous: I must clarify this, if my statements seemed aiming to depict me as "genius". If I was a genius, I shoudn't be unemployed since 2008, this is a sad truth. ------------- http://www.missero.it/hoxvox">

So I downloaded this a while ago but just got around to listening to it. I have to say that I am floored. I got much the same impression from this as I did from Eight-Bit Deboned (your first album that I heard): that you can craft incredibly, out there, avant-garde music that also manages to be stunningly beautiful. Wonderfully done my friend. I will be listening to this one for a while. ------------- "The meaning of life is to give life meaning."-Arjen Lucassen |
