SOB is great and all, but Beauty in the Beast is absolutely phenomenal. She really pushed the boundaries there, creating a musical universe all of her own. htt

- cicero 9y agoWhen I read about the 35-note octave, I was not expecting something positive. I had never heard anything done with non-traditional scales that I liked. However, I went ahead and listened to the Beauty in the Beast track and I was enchanted. I will check out the rest of that album. I think Carlos has a sense of beauty that may be missing from other experimental music artists I've listened to.
- 8bitsrule 9y agoReally. I'd heard most of Carlos' early works up until the 80s many times, but never BitB (release 30 years ago). A close listen to <i>Just Imaginings</i> last night was mind-blowing ... even more than 'Seasonings' was way back when it released. I've seldom heard anything using scales with dozens of notes in an octave that was particularly musical. JI is very musical ... and yet with enough mastery of timbres and rhythms to keep it just edgy enough. Wow.
