Immediately
upon seeing the word “Quartet” in the artist name, I knew this was going to be
some take on classical music and I am so happy that I was right. It’s horns and strings, but they are
portrayed in a way that resembles more of the noise genre than something you
would hear in a concert hall. This is
just so wonderful I cannot even explain it.
At times,
the music sounds flat out sad, like the score to a black and white
cartoon. There is a bit of banging and
it can also sound intentionally bad rather than being out of tune. (I know “bad on purpose” is a genre but this
doesn’t really fall into there so much because it really is not bad in that
sense) There is applause because
apparently some of these songs are live and I didn’t realize it until it came
to its conclusion.
It is
haunting and howling, like some kind of animal. Yet, there is a symphony in here still. It’s not your normal symphony or your normal
anything, but it is in its own way a very perfectly orchestrated symphony. The only point for comparison I really have
is something I’ve listened to from the Bandcamp of Stephanie Lak, and since I
do enjoy her music so deeply I feel that the more we have that sounds like this
the better off we all can be for it.
