Boxhead Ensemble - Ancient Music - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Cinema is baked into Krassner's musical DNA, and these recordings sometimes veer from evoking a lost psychedelic sci-fi flick to a desolate western, or from a horror film to a sun-dappled romance. Listening closely, you hear the years in these songs, but also the freshness of a brand new moment. Though one could read the title Ancient Music as a cheeky display of Krassner's self-deprecating humor, listening to it's majestic swells and spooky corners, it becomes clear that Krassner means it the other way too. These are songs that have somehow always existed. And somehow, they always will.1. The Bare Earth2. The Incandescent Wanderer3. The Other Shore4. Cuckoo Symposium5. An Illuminated Afterthought6.
