Brief Description experimental post modern electronica
History/Biography "spiral lounge"is all about universe and the people. The word "Spiral" refers to "Spiral arm of our galaxy" and the word "Lounge" refers to "where people communicate, understand and accept each other. Music of "Spiral Lounge" is inspired by the universe of its repetitiousness and the harmony. On top of its "dance/trance" like groove,"Spiral Lounge" accomplished layer the repeated phrases over and over without killing classical music like harmonies and dynamics. Synthesizer and the drum samples were used a lot of times to create "club music" like atomosphere. However, you can still feel "organic side" in the music(cd). When those songs are played live, they will be played as band style. The concept of playing shows tend to come from improvisation(communication and inspiration) because of Massa's music background. Sometimes, they could be played totally different from its original version and some flavor will be added to make the live performance(presence) interesting. |
