Description
================
music, and additionally for that matter, ancient music. Leake, a dedicated
researcher and student of African and Indian musical traditions, has been
exploring for quite some time the possibilities of co-mingling those ancient
traditions with modern influences of groove, ambient, rock, jazz, and more.
This of course has been attempted many times before. The danger is that the
result ends up as a fusing of superficial (surface) elements of musical styles.
What sets Cubist apart is the depth of dedication and commitment to all of
these disciplines represented not just in Leake himself, but in all of his co-
conspirators on this project. What we have here is not so much a mixture of
chemicals, but rather an entirely new compound, something that will take
repeated listening to grasp, and a clear indication of the possibilities of
Intro from the CD:
Cubism was a brief but significant art movement lead by Pablo Picasso between
1907 and 1914. Cubists represent objects in a single plane, simultaneously
opening the object in all its sides in relation to the observer. This multi-
viewpoint treatment of a two-dimensional canvas revealed an intentionally
ambiguous, fragmented image of reality.
Cubism in music also exists: sound and time can be perceived from various
viewpoints and centers of gravity. Combinations of sound elements (wood, metal,
skin); culture and tradition (African, Asian, orchestral); odd metric
structures and unusual subdivisions can open music in all its sides for the
listener. New angles in composition and arrangement unfold.
Music can also be represented using geometric shapes: as vectors of sound in
motion, as particles of musical thought. In South India the rhythm yatis are
derived from the curl of a cow's tail, the barrel shaped mridangam drum, an hourglass of the damaru drum. North Indian rhythm cycles, math concepts of tihai and ginti, and African bell patterns can be realized as a compass, graph, or flowing waves.
