Guest brianellis Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 (edited) Brian Ellis "The Silver Creature" Benbecula Records 2007 (BEN042CD) CD Album Release date: August 6, 2007 Track Listing 01 The Morning After 02 Basement Boogie 03 Hit the Spot 04 Para Ti ( ) 05 Night Trails 06 Flute Salad 07 Home Cookin 08 Say ( ) 09 Traveling 10 Cookies and Cream "Benbecula are over the moon to secure this multi-talented individual from the west coast of the USA, whose jazz inspired mix of electronic funk is possibly one of the most unique blends of sound to be produced this decade. Followers of the label will no doubt recognise Brian's output as one half duo behind the highly acclaimed Minerals release "Free Festival". Brian's solo work is a phenomenal one man band with multi-tracked instrumentation that is so well put together it easily deceives, sounding more like a 6 piece band." p.s. I have an album coming out on the minerals series in may... more info tba Edited March 8, 2007 by brianellis

eugene Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 man..every time i play your tune i shut it in the middle and start playing tortoise...its ok, but i don't think its right.. ( i know i brought it up some time before) np: tortoise - wait
theocide Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 man..every time i play your tune i shut it in the middle and start playing tortoise...its ok, but i don't think its right.. ( i know i brought it up some time before) np: tortoise - wait you should save your judgments until the album is actually released. I find it hard to logically parallel the two, but maybe because electronic music and tortoise aren't the only things I listen to. whatever you do, make sure you get a copy before they sell out. I'm sure you'll feel differently once you hear everything .
Guest brianellis Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 man..every time i play your tune i shut it in the middle and start playing tortoise...its ok, but i don't think its right..

DOI anything that is jazz influenced and new is tortoise i don't listen to anything else actually i like a few tortoise albums hooray for life and liking things! everytime i read your posts I just start reading a book instead.
beneboi Posted March 15, 2007 Posted March 15, 2007 everytime i do something, i do something better instead
Atop Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 you don't sound like Tortoise at all! everything sounds like 2 rocks being slammed against each other..... influence is unavoidable as are idiots! Akkad
Meadows and Labyrinths Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 everything sounds like 2 rocks being slammed against each other..... brilliant!
fleetmouse Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 (edited) This is super, if the two tracks on youtube are any indication. Thumbs up. Captures an early jazz fusion funk vibe and takes it new places. Edited April 11, 2007 by fleetmouse
Guest brianellis Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 This is super, if the two tracks on youtube are any indication. Thumbs up. Captures an early jazz fusion funk vibe and takes it new places. Thanks... If you like those tracks i'm sure you'll like the rest of the album. Have you checked out the thread for my other album Free Way? That comes out on the benbecula minerals series on may 21st.
