Review by Steve Stine
A New Distance by Spontaneous Music Ensemble is a captivating album that showcases the group's improvisational prowess. The album features a series of tracks that are characterized by intricate melodies, complex rhythms, and a sense of spontaneity that is both refreshing and invigorating.
The musicianship on the album is outstanding, with each member of the ensemble contributing their unique style and sound to the overall tapestry of the music. The interplay between the instruments is particularly impressive, with the group demonstrating a remarkable ability to listen and respond to each other in real-time.
The album is also notable for its use of unconventional instrumentation, with the group incorporating a range of different instruments and sounds to create a truly distinctive sonic landscape. From the haunting sounds of the flute to the percussive beats of the drums, every element of the music is carefully crafted to create a rich and immersive listening experience.
