David Chesky – The New York Rags (2012) [Official Digital Download 24bit/192kHz]

Studio Masters By admin · December 7, 2022 · Comments off

David Chesky’s series of 18 modern virtuoso solo piano rags are inspired by life in the bustling and intense metropolis of New York City, a place he has called home since 1974. The work seems to owe as much to Henry Cowell and Charles Ives’ use of dissonance, Elliott Carter’s atonalism, Conlon Nancarrow’s experimental piano rolls, Leonard Bernstein’s syncopation, and Cecil Taylor’s whirlwind free jazz as they do to Joplin’s ragtime classics. These pieces are taken from Chesky’s unique rhythmic and harmonic style of composition, fused together with stride piano and ragtime to capture the everyday life of modern pulsating New York City. This album was recorded in Binaural+ for both speaker and 3D headphone playback and has EXTREME dynamics, so please set your playback levels carefully.

David Chesky – String Theory (2011) [Official Digital Download 24bit/48kHz]

Studio Masters By admin · December 7, 2022 · Comments off

David Chesky’s three new concertos have redefined the role of the modern string soloist. By fusing the classical concerto form with the modern harmonic language of American rhythmic jazz, these innovative works extend theoretical parameters to realms reserved only for the few pioneers truly revolutionizing their instruments today. Tom Chiu and Dave Eggar are by turn chamber soloists, free jazz experimentalists, and poetic sound abstractionists who bring a volcanic rock-and-roll energy to these works, transcending the typical concerto. Fiendishly difficult passage work and extreme timbral ranges present a new athleticism to the musical virtuosity as the soloists debate, collide and duel with the orchestra and also with each other. Throughout, Chesky’s poignant juxtaposition of primitive power of urban groove and the elegance of classical refinement reveals the birth of a new genre in American music.

David Chesky – Rap Symphony (2014) [Official Digital Download 24bit/48kHz]

Studio Masters By admin · December 7, 2022 · Comments off

David Chesky’s Rap Symphony is about a transitional society, a society that is shifting from the word to the image. Our civilization once used to believe in depth and reading and art; now abstract thought is changing into a simplistic, superficial society where one is consumed with the quick Starbucks or Twitter fix. It’s all lightness of being today. We don’t celebrate anticipation anymore, people don’t want to put the time in. This symphony is about the collapse of that whole ethos.

The phrase in the lyrics that says ‘kill the philharmonic’ doesn’t mean that literally. It’s a metaphor for a society that has no use for the philharmonic. We’re losing these things. Pretty soon John Coltrane and Miles Davis, along with all jazz and classic music, will become museum pieces. We used to have a culture that cherished these, but in a super simplistic society, there’s just no room for them.

David Byrne – Live From Austin, TX (2007/2017) [Official Digital Download 24bit/96kHz]

Studio Masters By admin · December 7, 2022 · Comments off

Since 2007, New West Records has curated the finest collection of recordings available from the Austin City Limits television program, on DVD, CD, and vinyl. These recordings, culled from hundreds of performances from the 1970s to the 2000s, represent one of the greatest treasures in American music.

This show, captured on November 28, 2001, came on the heels of his hit single, “Like Humans Do” and the release of the album Look Into The Eyeball, which was another typically eclectic musical stew reflecting a variety of styles and influences, from Philly soul to a D.C. Go-Go inspired groove and his first-ever Spanish composition, “Desconocido Soy.” Critics at the time called it his best work in years, and his performance on the Austin City Limits stage shows why. Joined by Austin’s own eclectic tango ensemble Tosca, Byrne takes us down many different musical roads in his ACL debut.

David Byrne – American Utopia on Broadway (Original Cast Recording) (2019) [Official Digital Download 24bit/96kHz]

Studio Masters By admin · December 7, 2022 · Comments off

David Byrne may be the most cerebral rock musician of his generation, but unlike most of the artists who follow close behind him, he’s someone who understands the physicality of performance and the notion of giving it up for an audience; smart and arty as he may be, he understands the age-old concept of giving the audience a show, and he happens to be very good at it. Byrne’s 2018 album American Utopia fared well with critics, but what really caught the attention of his audience was the tour he mounted in support, in which he performed with a small army of dancers and musicians who were in constant, carefully choreographed movement that changed it from a concert into something truly spectacular. The tour eventually led to a run on Broadway, and [RoviLink=”MW”]American Utopia on Broadway [Original Cast Recording][/RoviLink] documents how the show sounded to the patrons who saw it on the Great White Way. Listening to this performance without seeing it puts the material at a certain disadvantage, but this is a significantly more satisfying and pleasurable experience than the American Utopia album was. Where the surfaces of the studio album were often cool and dryly ironic, the sweat and fire of a live show is apparent throughout, and Byrne’s ensemble is capable of cutting his brand of funk with confidence and élan. For the show, Byrne also filled out the program with a rich variety of songs from his days with Talking Heads and his solo career, and they enhance the effect of the American Utopia numbers, as well as reminding us that the LP’s view of the State of the Union in the Trump era was ultimately one more chapter in a story he’s been pondering for decades now. And if American Utopia was thoughtful and whip smart, the Broadway show is thoughtful, whip smart, and fun — an entertainment that doesn’t compromise its intellect for its unique brand of showmanship and vice versa. Just as Stop Making Sense was more than just another live album from just another rock band, American Utopia on Broadway does more than document Byrne’s 2018-2019 tour, it stands as a grand and powerful statement of its own from an artist who is as relevant now as he was in his salad days. ~ Mark Deming

David Byrne – American Utopia (Deluxe Edition) (2018) [Official Digital Download 24bit/96kHz]

Studio Masters By admin · December 7, 2022 · Comments off

At 65, David Byrne gets off his bike (his ultimate passion) to release his first solo album in fourteen years. Co-written with his old accomplice Brian Eno, with whom he began working with in the Talking Heads era, American Utopia is a patchwork which only Byrne has the secret to. Crossing genres, fusing continents and breaking down stylistic boundaries, the former Rhode Island School of Design student has always had this sort of thing in his blood. After doing punk funk, salsa, electro collage, records with people as diverse as Fatboy Slim and Annie Clark (aka St. Vincent), film music, ballet music and about a thousand other things, here he returns to a more classic song format.

For all Byrne’s other endeavours, music is the forum where his quirky, zany, challenging ideas achieve emotionally satisfying expression.

David Bromberg Band – Big Road (2020) [Official Digital Download 24bit/88,2kHz]

Studio Masters By admin · December 7, 2022 · Comments off

Multi-instrumentalist, songwriter and iconoclast David Bromberg, from his ’71 album debut to his latest album, BIG ROAD, is still pushing boundaries, still an iconoclast, still unapologetically unique, as he continues to explore his life’s journey via a path that might be considered “asymmetrical.” A master of American roots music idioms and possessed of an encyclopedic trove of musical knowledge, Bromberg’s spirited originals, blues classics and pubic domain chestnuts make for an incredible musical experience. Determined to give fans “something of value”—a tangible, content-rich package of music, film, text and photos—Bromberg and his ace band deliver 12 tracks, five hi-def performance videos and a mini-documentary detailing the album’s creation on this deluxe package, recorded at the Clubhouse in Rhinebeck, NY. BIG ROAD will be available in a gatefold vinyl album and a CD/DVD combo pack. In an age where recorded music has been devalued and relegated to a digital stream for smart phones, BIG ROAD returns the listener to the golden age of record-making, when enjoying an album was a tactile, visual and auditory experience. Reuniting Bromberg with GRAMMY®-winning producer/guitarist Larry Campbell, this collection is the most intimate portrait to date of David and his band, capturing Bromberg and his band in all of their road-tested glory.
