R.A.I.G. 2012 (ro073)
I Vespero, Arkady Fedotov (bass, keyboard, vocals, flute), Valentin Rulev (violin),
Ivan Fedotov (drums, percussion), Alexander Kuzovlev (guitar), Natalya
Turina (vocals), Alexey Klabukov (keyboards) sono una band russa sostanzialmente di musica psychedelico-improvvisativa con venature space e kraut. Incidono per la R.A.I.G. russa e confermano sia il buon movimento russo-musicale, con relativa evidente attenzione dell'underground locale, sia i buoni risultati raggiunti dai recensiti che giungono alla loro settima realizzazione cui va aggiunto il recente split con i tedeschi Zone Six (vale a dire Dave aka Sula Bassana). L'album, nel quale compaiono i seguenti guest musicians: Ilya Semyonov / percussion, drums (2), Elena Belozyorova / arpeggiator (2), Alexei Esin / soprano sax (2,5), consiste di 6 brani piuttosto lunghi nei quali le tastiere la fanno da padrone. I primi due pezzi si sviluppano partendo da un groove (il secondo più ritmico) sopra al quale tutti gli altri strumenti insistono con diversi interventi, in stile kraut insomma, una sorta di Amon Duul meno caotici. L'arpeggiatore conferisce il timing, la chitarra canta le sue note, il sax fa altrettanto...e così via fino alla fine. La cosa che mi lascia dubbioso è il continuo ripetersi del groove, identico a se stesso per tutta la durata dei due pezzi. Altro incipit di synth, questa volta in stile Berlin School, per Underwater. Presenti le percussioni che corroborano all'ambientazione space del risultato che viaggia su un ostinato del basso. Arpeggiatore in evidenza in Target Selection, percussioni, divagazioni tastieristiche molto rilassanti. In sostanza, si giunge alla fine dell'album con lo stesso identico mood iniziale. Forse un po' troppo monotono nella sua globalità, ma un buon disco da avere nella propria collezione. Stavolta però non trovo nulla su youtube per voi...sorry !
Vespero band, Arkady Fedotov (bass, keyboards, vocals, flute), Valentin Rulev (violin), Ivan Fedotov (drums, percussion), Alexander Kuzovlev (guitar), Natalya Turina (vocals), Alexey Klabukov (keyboards) is a Russian band essentially psychedelic-improvisational music with space and kraut grain . They recorded for the russian R.A.I.G. records and confirm both the smooth-moving Russian music, with its clear focus of the underground room, both the good results achieved by the reviewed that coming to their seventh release, to which must be added the recent split with the german Zone Six (ie aka Dave Sula Bassana). The album, in which appear the following guest musicians: Ilya Semyonov / percussion, drums (2), Elena Belozyorova / arpeggiator (2), Alexei Esin / soprano sax (2.5), consists of 6 tracks rather long in which the keyboards reign supreme. The first two tracks are developed from a groove (the second most rhythmically) upon which all other instruments are independently playing: kraut style, a sort of Amon Duul less chaotic. The arpeggiator gives the timing, the guitar sings his notes, the sax is the same ... and so on until the end. The thing that makes me doubtful is the continuous repetition of the groove, which is identical to itself for the whole duration of the two pieces. Another synth starting song, this time in a sort of Berlin School style for Underwater. Always the percussions that corroborate the space ambience of the result travelling on a bass guitar ostinato. Arpeggiator featured in Target Selection, percussions, very relaxing keyboard digressions. In essence, the cd comes at the end with the exact same starting mood. Maybe a little too monotonous in its entirety, but a good album to have in your collection. This thime I can't find anything at youtube for you...sorry !
