Daniel Brandt is the percussionist of Berlin's Brandt Brauer Frick ensemble, which adjusts modern classical and dance music. His initially solo album is more qualified to detached consideration. What begun off as a more simplistic idea soon developed into something significantly more mind boggling as the London and Berlin-based music maker traversed the world, trying different things with different specialists and distinctive instruments. From his dad's lodge situated in the German countryside with access to only cymbals to being encompassed by guitars in Joshua Tree, his surprising voyage soon advanced into what turned into his initially solo album. Daniel Brandt, best known as the drummer in trial techno trio Brandt Brauer Frick, the thought was to record a album including exclusively of arrangements made utilizing just cymbals. In any case, in the wake of securing himself his dad's lodge for three days, it rapidly ended up noticeably obvious that the thought was not going to be conceivable as new and unexpected ideas came to him that would require the utilization of different instruments. Left with minimal decision however to investigate these new methodologies, Brandt voyaged everywhere throughout the world, exploring different avenues regarding diverse sorts of instruments and different specialists. Accomplishing the sounds drifting inside his go to be an interesting test in itself. Notwithstanding being a capable artist, Brandt found that he needed to take in a portion of the instruments himself, showing a splendid level of sense of duty regarding his vision. The resultant collection sees Brandt playing out the greater part of the instrumentation including the guitar, bass, consoles and synths. The main special cases being the visitor appearances of Florian Junker on trombone, Manu Delago on hang drum and Andreas Voss on cello. Whatever, thoughts he had at the commencement of this venture, definitely moved as he was presented to various conditions and affected by the specialists and instruments he experienced en route. In the event that it was something of a startling voyage for Brandt, then it is unquestionably sudden for the audience as every tune turns in frequently abnormal bearings as he difficulties the desires behind regular melody piece and structure. Eternal Something starts out with an untypical track, ‘Chaparral Mesa’, that could give the wrong impression of the project. It’s great, but for some time, it sounds like overdubbed guitar parts are jostling for space, and sounds more than a little like the kind of post-King Crimson work of Robert Fripp and his musical buddies. Eventually, however, repetitive beats enter against surging ambience, setting up a template that the album will follow. With beats bobbing about like buoys on choppy water, but with a backdrop set in the sea of tranquility, it’s a joy for the ears. Pros in low-end bass will likely not get their stones off, on the grounds that the subwoofer just truly kicks in two or three times, however that is not the point. Everlasting Something is a record where the surface and tunefulness of the percussion alone is a head trek, and after that there are the various sonic hues and patternings to mull over. It is unkind to call this state of mind music, however it works perfectly as a foundation canvas. There's nothing better, in any case, than disposition music that transforms into something else when you connect with it, and sonically and musically, there's sufficient of everything to pacify the faculties. “Eternal Something” is an intricate highlight of the album. Once again the tangled, skittering instrumentation wheels around an uncomplicated, basic piano theme. All things considered, Brandt utilizes the piano more like a DJ would as he bit by bit gives it a chance to construct, giving it something of an old school building feel. As it tumbles down the opposite side of this pinnacle, it undermines to break free totally from any similarity of structure however by one means or another figures out how to hold together notwithstanding resisting the creases. "Casa Fiesta" includes somewhat more metal as it elements vigorously mutilated trumpet, which gives the melody recognizable warmth while keeping up the temperament of experimentation. Collection nearer, "On the Move" is a marginally sad, elegiac piece which feels like the finish of a section as the different closures are consistently tied up. This a beautiful yet surprisingly subtle album. Tracklist : 01. Chapparal Mesa 02. FSG 03. The White Of The Eye 04. Turn Over 05. Kale Me 06. Eternal Something 07. Casa Fiesta 08.
