The Motet - Music For Life ((CD))

Spearheaded by drummer extraordinaire Dave Watts, The Motet is building on its reputation as one of the most eclectic bands on the scene today. A rare example of a band whose repertoire is entirely composed by its drummer, The Motet's unique blend of Afro-Beat, Afro-Cuban, Latin, Funk and Jazz traditions defies categorization. Drawing on the wealth of musical inspiration in the band's hometown of Boulder, CO, The Motet never fails to inspire fans and enthrall the crowd. The band has steadily evolved after their last release, Live, became their best-selling effort yet. The new studio album, Music For Life, is another signpost in their career displaying the jazzier leanings of the band's sound. The propulsive percussion, buttery funk and mesmerizing improvisations are intact, but more emphasis has been placed on melodic interplay between guitar, keyboard, sax, and bass. The result is an instrumental reinvention of the sonic soulfulness that has become the band's trademark. Music For Life is just that - sun-drenched, high-altitude fusion that seeps into the scenery and invites expressiveness. Standard Jewel Case
