| Drum Hero Francisco Mela and Pianist Virtuoso Shinya Lin Debut Their Adventurous Project with ‘Motions Vol. 1’ Album In Motions, Vol. 1, Francisco Mela and Shinya Lin create an album of improvised textures and thrilling exploratory sounds. Using drum sets and prepared piano, they create a lush soundscape of textures, imagining a scene reminiscent of a jungle, full of life, resources, and possibility."It was a huge pleasure to have Mela's presence and his mentorship was amazing, free of selves, the music came out just naturally from our souls, " says Shinya about their first collaboration. Lin, a pianist and composer based in New York, who was classically trained, draws much of his sound from influences like John Cage and Cecil Taylor, "to accept whatever it comes, there is only enjoyment." For Mela, who was named 2021 musician of the year by The New York City Jazz Record, this project represents yet another dimension of his curious and adventurous sound, present-focused and full of abstract grooves. This project marks one of many of Mela's releases on 577 Records and a label debut for Shinya Lin. Motions, Vol. 1 will be available for download and in CD format on April 22, 2022. : вам Drum Hero Francisco Mela and Pianist Virtuoso Shinya Lin Debut Their Adventurous Project with 'Motions Vol. 1' Album Out April 22nd via 577 Records Genres: Experimental, Avantgarde, Minimalist STREAM, DOWNLOAD BELOW Francisco Mela and Shinya Lin (L to R) hi-res available below.
