Our Take
Alright, let's talk about the latest collaboration between Jon Raskin and Carla Harryman, "Open Box." This album is a wild ride from start to finish, with Raskin's experimental saxophone blending seamlessly with Harryman's unique spoken word poetry. From the moment you press play, you are transported into a world of avant-garde sounds and thought-provoking lyrics. Raskin's saxophone playing is nothing short of mesmerising, as he weaves in and out of different melodies and tones with ease. Harryman's poetry adds another layer to the music, with her words painting vivid pictures in your mind. Tracks like "Box of Secrets" and "Unravelling" showcase the duo's ability to push boundaries and create music that is truly one-of-a-kind. The instrumentation is complex yet accessible, keeping you on your toes throughout the entire album. However, "Open Box" is not without its flaws. Some tracks can feel a bit disjointed and jarring, making it hard to fully immerse yourself in the music. Additionally, the album's experimental nature may not be to everyone's taste, so proceed with caution if you're not a fan of avant-garde music. Overall, "Open Box" is a bold and ambitious album that showcases the immense talent of Jon Raskin and Carla Harryman. While it may not be everyone's cup of tea, it is definitely worth a listen for those looking to expand their musical horizons. Give it a spin and see where it takes you.
