Door de Brexit komen titels die uit de UK afkomstig zijn nog altijd
met vertraging binnen. Soms valt het mee en duurt het slechts 2-3
weken, maar het komt helaas ook voor dat we 4 weken of meer moeten
wachten. We doen ons best om alles zo goed en snel mogelijk te
regelen, maar het blijft lastig...

Omschrijving | US Import:
Multi-instrumentalist Matt Dorsey To Release New
Progressive-Pop-Rock Album “Let Go” - featuring
Marco Minnemann and Dave Kerzner.
“Let Go” is a new collection of songs written and
recorded by multi-instrumentalist Matt Dorsey.
Stylistically it stands as a blend of all the
artists and bands that influenced him including,
Rush, Yes, Genesis, Pink Floyd, XTC, The Police,
Peter Gabriel, Steely Dan and more. It can be
described as progressive-pop-rock. On it Matt
sings and plays guitars, bass, keyboards,
percussion and, on two of the songs, the drums.
Marco Minnemann provides drums on three tracks and
Jonathan Mover on another three. Dave Kerzner
performs a keyboard solo that he wrote for one of
the songs.
Says Matt, “‘Let Go’ is a collection of songs that
cover many aspects of life. I studied philosophy
in college and the first song I wrote following my
studies was MAN, which is something of a summary
of the human condition and a celebration of the
mystery and miracle of human existence. Following
my college days, I shifted my focus from western
to eastern philosophy and you can hear a sense of
that influence in the song Echo which expresses a
deep connection with all living things. ‘Let Go,’
too, is a reflection of the eastern philosophical
tradition expressing a sort of taoist disposition
toward the flow of things and a zen-like non-
attachment. Waiting for the Fall and Castles Made
of Sand are a bit darker, expressing a more
existential despair, the one about perpetual
failure and the other about the fleeting nature of
time. But, to round the album out, Compromise,
Dangerous and Impossible Friends are more
straight-forward love songs. Life is many things.
Art should reflect that. ‘Let Go’ is an album
about the philosophy of life.”
The album contains 8 tracks recorded almost
entirely at Matt’s home studio in Orange County,
except for the drum tracks provided by Minnemann
and Mover, and the keyboard solo by Kerzner. The
album was mixed by Matt and mastered by Andy
VanDette. The album artwork was created by Ed
Unitsky.
Best known as a founding member of Sound of
Contact, he has also played with Beth Hart, Dave
Kerzner, In Continuum, and most recently with the
all-star progressive rock cover band ProgJect.
Says Matt, “I hope those who listen to my music
actually get something meaningful or useful out of
it, even if it’s just the enjoyment of the rhythms
and melodies or the tapping of the foot. If one
gleans anything more deeply significant, all the
better. If I’m honest, I write and play music
entirely for the sheer joy of it. I guess that’s a
bit selfish to say. That said, I know there is
power in music, to be sure, and it can move people
in very potent ways. I feel privileged to be a
part of that. I guess to sum it up my message is
simply, life is extraordinary and we would do well
to look longer and more carefully at it.”
