████ Dream Box is Pat Metheny's third date for BMG's Modern ████
████ Recordings, a set of nine solo tunes for electric guitar, drawn ████
████ from a folder on his laptop's hard drive. Metheny often records ████
████ new ideas, covers, or standards by playing them once. During 160 ████
████ days of touring in 2022, he had ample time to survey the folder's ████
████ contents. He was surprised when the music he had little memory of ████
████ recording revealed these "moments in time" as an organic whole. ████
████ Further, all but one original had compositional roots in the ████
████ method utilized on "Unity Village" on 1976's Bright Size Life -- ████
████ an initial harmonic scheme buoyed by a second offering melodic ████
████ and improvisational sequences. This program contains six original ████
████ compositions, two standards, and a cover. Longtime fans will find ████
████ little save for guitar tone in common with earlier solo records ████
████ such as 1979's New Chautauqua or 2011's What's It All About. It ████
████ does bear aesthetic and emotional relation to 2004's One Quiet ████
████ Night, a set of ballads recorded at home solo on an acoustic ████
████ baritone guitar. ████
████ ████
████ One of Metheny's aesthetic signatures is an often euphoric ████
████ character in his composing and playing. While that's absent here, ████
████ emotion, vulnerability, and poignancy aren't. The sparse chords ████
████ and melodic line that introduce opener "The Waves Are Not the ████
████ Ocean" are gently presented to the listener without adornment ████
████ save for the dictates of its lyric harmony. The spaces between ████
████ whispered chord voicings carry the listener's heart alongside. ████
████ "From the Mountains" seemingly underscores that flavor with a ████
████ slightly darker yet more majestic Latin-tinged melody. "Trust ████
████ Your Angels" is lilting, tender, and expository in its ████
████ impressionistic use of the blues, α la mentors Jim Hall and ████
████ Charlie Haden. The first four originals are followed by two ████
████ elegantly wrought covers. The first is a harmonically and ████
████ rhythmically re-envisioned reading of Russell Vernon Longstreth's ████
████ (aka Russ Long) obscure yacht rock classic "Never Was Love." ████
████ Metheny's version strips away the sheen of pop artifice, ████
████ revealing the sophisticated nature of its intricate blue melody. ████
████ Sammy Cahn's "I Fall in Love Too Easily" is rendered with a ████
████ similar approach to the one pianist Bill Evans articulated on ████
████ 1962's Moon Beams. Metheny's gentle use of reverb adds an ████
████ additional multi-phonic voice as he hovers between single string ████
████ melody, chord changes, and the mysterious innovative shapes he ████
████ employs as bridges between. The other standard is Luiz Bonfa's ████
████ "Morning of the Carnival" ("Manha de Carnival"). Unlike the many ████
████ jazz versions out there, Metheny's realization closely adheres to ████
████ Bonfa's save for a subtle meld of samba and cumbia rhythms. When ████
████ Metheny states the melody, he offers contrasting melodic voices ████
████ on top, culminating in a warm, pointed solo. Set closer "Clouds ████
████ Can't Change the Sky" is another listener-enveloping ballad ████
████ composed in sections. Its lyric statement is followed first by ████
████ abstraction in tone, texture, and tempo before establishing a ████
████ second melody from that investigation, resolving them both. The ████
████ electric guitar ballads on Dream Box offer unvarnished ████
████ introspection, uncanny musical vision, and gorgeous technique. ████
