Comment: this bunch of three tracks by
Toronto, Ontario, Canada-based Oreste Camarra and his guest and
neighbour Marcus Wong (who plays guitars) is a fine amalgamation of
poppy electronic music, yacht and jazz rock shreds. The motives
represented over there used to run in repetition thereof creating
somehow compelling yet enchanting mood (
Oak and Eli). Yet the
other two tracks have been set out to run in a more variegated feel.
I would like to praise the
guitar play by Marcus Wong because it is the main propulsion in
different penumbrae and shades and flickers in different
strength and atmosphere.
I would like to call it a
contemporary version of soft rock because its intention apparently is
not to overwhelm the listener with crushing
riffs and volume but
creating a subtle mood around his/her head (at
the same time you have no chance to reject the technical adeptness of
the release). By
the way, the tracks are long (the shortest one
clocks in at a 6-minute) so
you nevertheless discern the impulse of an improvised format.
The issue is a part of the
discography of basic_sounds. Great
stuff.
