4.0 out of 5 stars
Mostly great,
By bimwa (Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Eyvind Kang: Theater of Mineral NADEs (Audio CD)
Eyvind Kang is one of my favourite musicians of the past few years. He is one of a rare breed who is actually doing something different in the music world. I think that this is a great album, but my only reservation is that it falls slightly short of some of the other stuff he has produced. The pieces are mostly miniatures, exploring such diverse territory as Medieval, reggae, and Kang's infamous NADEs (pieces only he could write or describe). It is mostly stunning, but towards the end it goes downhill just a little bit. I would certainly recommend this album to anyone looking for interesting new music, but also direct you towards Kang's other work: 7 NADEs, The Story Of Iceland, Dying Ground, Bill Frisell "Quartet", etc...

the earth & the moon,
By daniel moore (United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Eyvind Kang: Theater of Mineral NADEs (Audio CD)
This album is a wonderful thing. It's very well made. Since I received it in the mail, I've listened to it repeatedly and it continues to grow and develop (or at least my perception does). There are many complexities in the music that one just doesn't pick up on with the first listen. My favorite song is definitely mary of magdalen. purchase this album. you will not regret it.

A fusion of styles, in various combinations,

This review is from: Eyvind Kang: Theater of Mineral NADEs (Audio CD)
I grew up with a variety of music styles, from classical, folk, blues, rock, religious, spirituals- all over the landscape, you might say. I expanded on my own to include avant-garde, nature sounds, experimental, country-rock, folk-rock, jazz, various ethnic music styles... and the list goes on.
This is the first album I've purchased with Eyvind Kang on it, but I'm hooked! Every time I listen to it, I hear more and more layers of influence. I even made an extra copy to play in my car! Kang and his friends mix styles together, move from style to style, invent new sounds & styles... Listen to the samples made available on the site here to see if you are as intrigued as I was when I first heard it. I just can't find the words to give an adequate impression of the breadth of this music for the unexposed. If you're an adventurous listener like me, let me just invite you to sample the work of this genius by getting this album. If on the other hand, you just can't bend or expand beyond your bland vanilla musical tastes, you'll know after you just give a listen.
