Bach at the Marimba - J.S. / Trio Sr9 Bach CD
The French Trio SR9 promotes a creative vision of contemporary western drumming. Their special way of reviewing and transcribing the works of the great composers shows how actively they commit to classical and contemporary musical heritage. It led them to study closely the complete works of Johann Sebasitan Bach and they worked on a specific part of it. The Trio SR9 was created in 2010 at the National Conservatory of Music and Dance of Lyon. In the past five years, they appeared on many stages and at a large number of festivals, in France and abroad. In 2012 they won three prizes at the International Music Competition in Luxembourg. The Trio SR9s tribute to Bach is about this fascinating and mysterious Canon that reflects the very quintessence of his art. The musicians transcribed the selected works for one, two or three marimbas and they illustrate the large variety of his instrumental music. The trio also honors the art of transcription that Bach practiced all his life as a demonstration of his great interest in other instruments with different timbers.Additional Info: Ever heard those early indie Devo recordings? The ones from before they signed with Warner Brothers and had Brian Eno produce their first album? They're an odd listen for anyone who heard them for the first time after the better-known major-label discs: they're more energetic, stripped down, and undeniably punkier, but those early tapes lack some of the personality that made them the spuds known and loved. The exact same statement applies to this reissue EP of the first two, way out of print singles by the Epoxies. The key songs here, "Need More Time" and "Synthesized," will be immediately familiar to anyone who's heard the Portland-based quintet: to this day, these 2001 singles are the cornerstone of the band's legend. "Need More Time" in particular is an instant new wave classic, quite possibly the finest two and a half minutes of the entire post-punk revival, but while this early take ups Viz Spectrum's metallic guitar attack, Roxy Epoxy's lead vocal lacks the hiccupping Lene Lovich-style quirks and breathless delivery of the superior take on the band's self-titled debut album, and Moxie Spectrum's essential backing vocals on the chorus sound comparatively thin and flat. The other two familiar songs, "Molded Plastic" and "Synthesized," fare about the same, but Synthesized is essential for fans for the inclusion of two B-sides that have never been re-recorded. Affectionate covers of a pair of new wave rarities, Adam & the Ants' early S/M-themed dirge "Beat My Guest" and Alice Cooper's 1980 bandwagon-jumper "Clones (We're All)," make clear the Epoxies' enormous and unapologetic debt to the days of spiky hair and plastic-rimmed shades, but they're performed with the same period-specific zeal as the originals. ~ Stewart MasonSpecifics
