aimee I was pleasantly surprised with this great first album. The songs are complex and catchy and these guys have some great bridges in their songs. (I love XTC therefore the bridge is essential to master.) I’ve recommended this album to a few friends, all of which have loved it’s unique themes. I’m excited to hear their next album and will gladly support them again! ☺️

Mills "Going Off Topic", the debut album from The Filibuster Saloon, delves into elements of Canterbury Scene, jazz, progressive rock, fusion, avant-prog, and however many labels may apply. These instrumental tracks comprise a vibrant and playful collection of tunes, trading moments of compositional complexity and musical virtuosity with an air of both breezy cheerfulness and cheeky mischief.

Stephen Harper Brilliant instrumental progressive music. Complex arrangements, but never at the expense of the flowing nature of the pieces, nor the strong melodic and harmonic content. Probably my favorite so far this year.

The new live EP by Ryan W. Stevenson's project reminded me, that this debut album must have been gone down the wishlist... If instrumental Canterbury stuff is your thing, this should be a no-brainer. Firmly rooted in the past (late 60s, 70s), nevertheless with a fresh sound. Guests incude The Tangent's Andy Tillison and Soft Machine's Theo Travis. Carsten Pieper

Murmurations
by Eyeless Owl

supported by 32 fans who also own “Going Off Topic”

Like its continuously invoked birds in motion, Murmurations delivers a frenzied flurry of symphonic prog, math rock, ambient, avant-garde, samba, jazz; a joyful eruption of multicolored feathers in flight. Precise and measured to be sure, but sportively delightful as well. Full review: https://millstreampark.com/eyeless-owl-murmurations-2023-album-review/ Mills

No one does music quite like Camille and Xavier do. I see their music as being akin to soundtracks for unfilmed movies. In this instance it is a movie about explorers of mountainous terrain, perhaps the terrain of our lives. Merci pour cette musique si intrigante. :-) sumbuk
