***Best new band in Portland, Oregon 2005***

___________________________________________________________
It's an effort these days to make an album with a
completely unique sound. Talent and ability have now
become so romanticized that musicians are integrating
genres and making music with an abundance never seen
before. In addition, with the growing affordability of
recording equipment, any hard working kid can commit his
or her music to a medium possibly accessible by many.
Having a support system of friends, musicians,
publications, and file sharing websites, unknown
contemporary artists are finding it easier to, well, get
their music out there. However, this availability to
access does not always translate into good music. Sloppy
production, a derivative (isn't using the word
derivative kind of derivative?) sound, and an
underdeveloped vision of one's own material has led to
many artists releasing work that is nowhere near the
potential of what independent music offers.
What Kevin O'Connor has managed to do with Talkdemonic's
debut, Mutiny Sunshine, is provide an accessibly
original album that is more mature than much of what is
being released today. The general mood of Mutiny
Sunshine is set with loops, synth, and samples. Further
live instrumentation adds to the ambience with the
addition of flute, viola, piano, bass, and guitar.
However, what quintessentially sets this album to the
side of many others is the live drumming on 8 of the 14
tracks. O'Connor has provided unique rhythms and beats
to each respective track, without jettisoning them in
the arena of drum solo fodder. The length of the tracks
also allows the listener to remain engaged for the
entirety of each respective song, providing the elements
of a complete song without overstaying its welcome.
While much of the contemporary instrumental music today
alienates the listener in its attempts at aural
innovation, Mutiny Sunshine is an incredibly inviting
album, offering an authentic human aspect to what could
largely be considered an electronic album. O'Connor has
used his drums to highlight the loops, samples, and
instrumentation of Mutiny Sunshine, and that, perhaps,
is one of the best things a drummer can do. The album,
however, coulda used more cowbell. -tinymixtapes.com
