Title: Amazing!!
Post by: maddox on Sun, 2009-08-16, 00:15:18
Hear what you can do with the Producer's disc out of the über-deluxe box set of Dream Theater's Black Clouds & Silver Linings.
I've copied this from the DPRP forum.

Hear and be stunned.  ;D

Actually, there's a long-sleeping member on this forum ,"Draddi", who is a die hard DT fan, and he laughed his a** off :)

In the end, even DT seem to be using the known mathematics of well-working harmonies. Haven't I already written that somewhere else... ??....

Brilliant the most amazing ( or scary) aspect is that they both work very well.
Listening to LaBrie over Astley's music you wouldn't know that it wasn't the original vocal track when you compare it to a whole host of similar pop songs of the day

Well, if they didnt, they would be more in the range of twelve-note composition (twelve tone music) - and that's a completely different story  ;)

What makes DT so extraordinary is not that they master all the conventions and traditions of music (which they do), but that they go beyond them while still retaining'm  *horns*

The thing is that while Schoenberg & Co. were taking classical music in a speculative direction and thus in my mind losing the music (emotion), blues, jazz, and later, rock musicians insisted on keeping the "music"; and now prog groups are treating us to all the wonderful classical stuff combined with the delicious raw gutsiness of jazz and rock  8)


Fun audio  *horns*

Thanx Mad  :)

Speaking of 'amazing' i just found another thing quite amazing.

Watch This!!  :o 8) *horns* (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9f2c4ZdI7w&feature=related)

Some might say that the drumming is way better than Portnoy's.
That the singing is way better than James'.

I'd just say good musicianship.  8)

Brilliantly played, just a shame about the cringe-making cheezy metal horns the bass player kept flashing...do me a favour....DT has always been about as far from real metal as Bon Jovi was!
