CINEMATICA

Very good instrumental album. I would classify this under the label of 'electronic crossover prog' if such a genre exists. There's plenty of synth sequencing and rich sounding layered pads throughout which are perfectly blended with some beautiful guitar work which brings a number of well known guitar players to mind as obvious influences.

There are three tracks on this album as well as a bonus track on the Bandcamp download.

My only real minor gripe with the album is that the two main tracks are perhaps somewhat unimaginatively named as 'Pt 1' and 'Pt 2'. Each has a run time of over 28 minutes so definitely not aimed at those listeners with a shorter attention span who prefer their songs to be no more than 3 minutes or so.

The third track ; sandwiched in between Pt 1 and Pt 2 and aptly named "Interlude" is much shorter at only 3 minutes and is a beautifully structured ambient and delightfully atmospheric short synth piece.

Both of the long tracks are fully action packed with plenty highs and lows and are diverse enough throughout their entire length to hold the listeners attention right to the very end.

The bonus track which comes with the download is named as "Cinematica Pt 2 : Youtube mix and also provides a youtube link to a section of that track which the artist has re-recorded especially for youtube.

In summary ; lovely stuff if you like long instrumentals of a kind of cross genre approach.
