Solos, Duets and Trio

A couple months ago {AN} Eel started sending out invitations to artists, for his latest project 'Three Way Dance'. For this project, he brings together 3 artists, whom in most cases never worked together and has them make an album. Each album will consist of 3 solo numbers, 3 duets and 1 trio. The first album in this series just got released yesterday and is made by William Davison, Wilfried Hanrath and Glenn Sogge. I guess that those 3 artists don't need a separate introduction, and that most EC-readers will already know about them and their work. If those names don't ring a bell, you might want to check out:
W.A.Davison at Recordism
Wilfried Hanrath at Bandcamp
Glenn Sogge at Aural Films Bandcamp...
  a little advertisement for Aural Films, never hurt anybody.

Now, about the album... I don't like comparing artists with other artists, but I might just throw in a name here and there. But first, {AN} Eel  wrote some liner notes for the album... let me start with stealing some of his words that sum up the general feeling(for me) of this record:
​metal, fog, raw earth, vanishing, collide, electric discharge, unfolding, grim realities... these words alone, should make you surf  to:​​

Solos, Duos, Trio at Bandcamp and make you buy the album for a 'pay as you want' price!
​
Ok here I go, the album starts very strong with 'The Creeps', a slightly industrial composition/drone of William. If I may throw in a first comparison... Machinefabriek, comes to mind!

The second composition, 'Sue§o', is from Wilfried. A more ambient-piece, with a reverb/delay guitar and synth (that would be my guess), that gets a little more threatening half way through the song. And, I don't know if they planned it, but it is a perfect introduction to 'Preparations of the Blood Moon', Glenn's solo composition. This song, makes the industrial feeling stronger again (Z'EV comes to mind) and that feeling remains in the next 3 songs.

'Shovelling Glass', 'Some Thing or An Other Thing' and 'Beyond the Boundaries of the Remit', those are the 3 duets that the gentlemen did. 

For the regular EC-readers, remember a while ago, the show that Swami Loopynanda did about Klaus Schulze? Well, that is who those 3 duets remind me of. That's the last time, that I will compare, I promise! 3 different combinations of musicians, but these 3 songs form one whole.

The last song, the trio piece, conveniently called: 'Trio Piece', is a strong ending of a superb album! That's all I have to say about that! And, as you all know, I have an exquisite taste in music, so go and buy this album and support your local artists!
