Between Interval – Radio Silence

Spotted Peccary Records – 2007

2008 has been a hard rocking year for me.  I've been listening to a lot of heavy metal, progressive metal, power metal, hard rock and instrumental rock.  Don't get me wrong I love that kind of music but I haven't eased up much.  Radio Silence definitely is something that took me away from the loud, bashing riffs and pounding drums.  It's so far removed from my metal/rock music that I appreciate this kind of release even more.

Between Interval (Stefan JÖnsson) creates a wide open musical canvas with room for his composition to breathe.  Most of the music is subtle, yet composed to get an emotional reaction from his listening audience and this music definitely has mood.

While listening to this, one track eases into another as the CD plays with fluidity thru its entire running time.   "From a Silent Surface" has a cool almost hip-hop percussive groove. "The Dark Light" really got me going to it's dark undercurrent and percussive edge.  The echoed keyboard lines of "Open Frequency" sent waves of audio sparkling through my ears.

In the linear notes, Stefan JÖnsson says this album was originally released on a very limited basis back in 2004.  We should all be thankful that Spotted Peccary has made it available for all the world to listen to Radio Silence.
