from Kinesis websiteApril 2004Behind
the not-terribly-attractive cover art lies a very good instrumental
progressive rock album based around vintage analog keyboards (or samples
thereof), especially Hammond and Mellotron, also Rhodes, clavinet, etc.
Eccentric Orbit is a Massachusetts four-piece featuring keyboards, MIDI
wind-controlled synths, bass, and drums and whose members have appeared
on albums by Pye Fyte, A Triggering Myth, and two Gentle Giant tribute
CDs. Some of the tracks sport an ELP influence, while others suggest
King Crimson, some of the Italian 1970's bands, and a bit of Happy the
Man. It's retro enough that it may fool people into thinking they've
found a lost early-70's album.
