King Crimson is one of those bands that doesn´t need introduction. With more than 40 years creating music and countless albums, this is the band that has been able to achieve the succes and the respect of all kind of musicians and fans of metal, rock, jazz, etc. All of this leading by its brain, Mr.Robert Fripp, the perfect experimenter. Because this is of what this album goes, of experimentation and evolution in music. Here there are no boundaries nor limits, just what Mr.Fripp is capable to imagine. This is not an easy listening album, King Crimson never was. This is just another step forward in its music. A little-known gem inside its discography. Enjoy these geniuses!

John Zorn - Mount Analogue (2012)

1.- Mount Analogue (Feat. Cyro Baptista, Shanir Ezra Blumenkranz, Tim Keiper, Brian Marsella & Kenny Wollesen) 38:21

Mr.Zorn is back with this one-song album, full oriental soundscapes, contemporany music passages and the experimentation that always goes with him. This is performed by Cyro Baptista's Banquet of the Spirits quartet: Shanir Blumenkranz, Tim Keiper, and Brian Marsella, with Kenny Wollesen on vibes and chimes.This work is close to the Film Works series. As always, a pleasure.

Mats Hedberg (guitars), Morgan Ägren (drums) and Björn  Jansson (vocals) are the core of this project. Progressive metal with some rock fusion and jazzy influences. Totally amazing the work of guitars and percussion, but the voices are truly dispendables to me. A long album with a lot of details needed of more than a couple of listenings.
