I don't know what to call this, but I definitely like it. (video)
This newest track from Carlos Niño & Friends may just be the hardest track I've ever had to describe.
Sure, there are some hints of jazz, ambient, and experimental classical in "OrganicSelf", but since it doesn't lean hard on either genre, it comes off as a purely original musical expression. Yet, despite it's experimental nature, it's unapproachable or hard to listen to either. Rather than driving the song, the drums and percussion seem more content to play in the background and add some subtle (and occasionally, not so subtle) texture to it. The real star of the show here is the simply gorgeous violin work, which really seem to moving and controlling the song. Honestly, I really can't figure out how to explain how this this track sounds, the best thing to is put on some headphones and give it a listen for yourself.
