Inventive Cross-Polination, December 3, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Inner Grooves (Audio CD)
Jim Skeel and Mark G.E. get together to play with a bunch of friends; it sounds like they had a blast with the jam-sessions of Inner Grooves... Sprawling, guitar-led excursion DistortoGroove heads into smoother vibes of faux-ethno-influenced Desert Keys, still quite bouncy in its demeanor. A misty entry into Space is the Case turns prog-jazzy as spattered cymbals, radiant sax streams, cool bass and more, smoothly jam. Spirited rhythms stomp through a dreamworld of musical styles as The Orbulon takes the sci-fi road to a rocking good time.
Blurting out buzzy streams of retro-movie horns as well as lounge-o-tronic vibes, and glaring surf guitars, warm We mixes and matches instrumental types with playful abandon and skill. Eloquently sawed strings add a sensual, semi-symphonic wang to Reflecting Pool, while Inner Core is marked by a murkier cyclone of sweetly somber swirls. Contagious glee for these inventive cross-pollinated jammers!

In touch with my inner groove, August 19, 2002
This review is from: Inner Grooves (Audio CD)
Though not my usual type of music, I was drawn into the beat and stayed for the funky exposition. Nothing trite or derivative, these tunes gave my brain something to think on and booty something to shake about. Or about which to shake, more properly. Check it out.
