Tassos Spiliotopoulos – Solitude (Track Review)
Music composition is usually a lonely process of self-exploration, whether you play with a band or as a solo artist. Tasos, who is also a renowned scientist in Information Technology, formed a Jazz trio with Kevin Glasgow and Asaf Sirkis and released the EP “Solitude.” The self-titled track of the EP is a harmonic Jazz/Rock song with influences from guitarists such as Allan Holdsworth and maybe the Ambient-oriented works of Robert Fripp. The structure of the song is complex, as it is with most of the Fusion tracks; however, the musicianship of the participants and the easy-to-listen, relaxing atmosphere of the song make it accessible for the mainstream audience as well. If you like guitar-driven music with respect to quality and experimentation, then check out this track.
