Tyondai Braxton

Beskrivelse

Summary: The piece was created as a live multimedia work that was part architectural installation and part ensemble performance with five musicians sitting cross-legged atop their own space-age oval pods. Designed by Danish architect Uffe Surland Van Tams, each pod was programmed to complete the sonic mood of the piece with ever-changing LED light emitting through its perforated wooden walls. The piece derived its name, as Braxton told London's Guardian, because "there's a very social aspect to what's happening in this project. Technologically speaking, the performers of the piece are very connected together.".

"For most of the album, he revels in variation and exploration rather than climactic statements: even though the beats on "Boids" eventually tower like redwoods, it's the woodpecker-like call-and-response rattles that anchor the piece ... Though this is some of Braxton's most abstract music, it might be the purest expression of his cerebral playfulness yet".

"Vurdering: C+" - "As the name of the album and performance suggests, both organic and electronic textures convey a sense of busy connection. During the album's first third, Braxton tests the earthly limitations placed on the interplay of these polarizing forces. However, the transitions from ambient found sounds to free jazz, from tug boats to off-kilter percussion all arrive without any discernible motive. When those organic elements soothingly dissipate during the four-to-the-floor of "Amlochley", no greater meaning issues from the shift".
