IN QUEST OF FLUIDITY
Adept of the esoteric and numerology , guitarist and songwriter, Tam de Villiers, received a “shock” review in our last issue for his third album. A meeting.
Here is an album that stand out from the crowd. From the first listening, one is struck by the sheer unpredictability of the routes layed-out in each piece.
Elected “Revelation!” award.I wrote a review of “Alba Lux”, this quartet’s first album, in December 2008 in which I had expressed the joy I experienced in rediscovering the same feelings I had had 25 years earlier when first listening to Marc Ducret, Malo Vallois and Serge Lazarevitch. Three years on, I find this music has matured, ripened and taken distance from its influences, and has become solidly founded on writing of a poetic sense, incontestably unique.
