| #251: Aleksi Eeben / Perserverance |
|
|
|
|
One of the most outlandish and experimental artists to feature on Kahvi returns with a small exerpt of his full length album 'Perserverance'.
Aleksi is, as I probably said before, verging on the genius with his out of tune, apparently random melodies, but yet.. they actually work quite well.
The tracks featured here are a small personally selected bunch of the more mellow and chilled tracks, still with the 'randomness', still with the completely original construction. Download the full album here: http://www.cncd.fi/aeeben/music/perseverance/ Track of choice: "Satellites" - Enjoy! |

If you're looking for something slightly more accessible try his monotonik release "Three Times the Music" (MTK183) - its marginally less mindblowing for the average human, although still unmistakably Eeben.
As for this release: pure unadulterated joy from start to finish. | | zombie wrote on 05/07/08, 5:14 am | Wasn't really into this, too random | | JRice wrote on 04/07/08, 11:02 pm | Reminds me of some of the 8bit stuff you can find out there these days... but with high-quality sounds. ...It's the strange musical playfulness (and lack of seriousness) that hearkens.
Definitely not my cuppa... and not something I would recommend to anyone who isn't extremely daring. ...And enjoys silly music. : ) | | die_z wrote on 04/07/08, 8:28 pm | wow! since the first listening I've been feeling an incredible spatial sensation, never knowing where I'd land, still having the grip to find my way inside the sound stream.
Great! | | Cliche wrote on 04/07/08, 6:05 pm | Its almost as if he has taken concepts, and morphed them into something almost cartoonish and at times, comical. All of the tracks have a very unique style, I cant decide whether to call it primitive or extremely complex. All that said, it is a very enjoyable release with constant twists and turns and the more you listen to it, the more the tracks begin to grow on you.
Favorite track: champion
Keep up the good work Mr.. Aleksi Eeben | |
