Our Take

In their latest collaborative effort, JON HEMMERSAM, ASAL MALEKZADEH, and EVELYN GLENNIE have opened the barrier to a whole new world of musical exploration. This album is a sonic journey like no other, blending traditional and contemporary sounds to create a truly unique listening experience.

The opening track, "Sonic Landscape," sets the tone for the entire album with its hypnotic beats and ethereal melodies. It's like being transported to another dimension where music is the only language spoken. The collaboration between Hemmersam's experimental guitar work, Malekzadeh's haunting vocals, and Glennie's masterful percussion creates a synergy that is simply mesmerizing.

As the album progresses, tracks like "Rhythmic Ritual" and "Echoes of Eternity" showcase the trio's ability to push the boundaries of sound and create music that is both visceral and thought-provoking. Each note is carefully crafted, each rhythm meticulously executed, resulting in a tapestry of sound that is both intricate and captivating.

Overall, Open Barrier is a testament to the power of collaboration and innovation in music. Hemmersam, Malekzadeh, and Glennie have created something truly special with this album, and it's a testament to their talent and creativity. So do yourself a favor and open the barrier to a whole new world of musical possibilities with this fantastic album.
