STEPS ON EDGE
SIDE STEPS
2003 , JAPAN - EURO 13.50
Label: MUSEA
ALBUM REVIEW
This Japanese progressive Jazz-Rock band was created in 1990 by its four current members (guitars/bass/keyboards/drums), and released nine albums since then. “Steps on Edge” is the fourth album by the band, initially released in 1994, now released by Musea. SIDE STEPS reaches with this album a form of musical perfection: impressive technical skill, melodic sense, very diverse influences Weather Report, Kenso, RTF…. These long, complex instrumental pieces are not demonstrative, but reveal through constant rhythm and mood changes a quest for perfection in melodies and structures. An excellent album.
