Sadly, Forrest Gump forgot to mention that experimental music is, too, much like a box of chocolates. It is its unexpected quality that makes it that much more enjoyable. With classical music you expect pianos and violins, with most rock songs you can be sure that an electric guitar will appear… but with experimental music, you really ‘dont know what you are going to get’. The experimental genre is about exploring combination of sounds, wether organic or synthetic, to induce the listener of a unique experience.
Yeasayer is a Brooklyn based experimental band who are releasing their second album ‘Odd Blood’ tomorrow (Feb 9th). While the way they describe themselves sounds like a mouthful “Middle Eastern-psych-snap-gospel” , Odd Blood will be one of the most delicious boxes of chocolates we will consume this year.
However, XXXchange thought this was not enough and dipped O.N.E. onto a warm electronic fudge creating a very exquisite remix.. and has now left The Music Ninja with a couple extra pounds.
