PHI YAAN-ZEK & MARCO MINNEMANN - DANCE WITH THE ANIMA




Marco Minnemann recorded a 51-minute drum solo, and sent it to various guitar players. He asked them add their input. Results of this "Normaliser 2"-project have been released by Mike Keneally, by Trey Gunn, and by Alex Machacek, to name just a few. I've heard both the Mike Keneally and the Alex Machacek records and these are both stunning.


And here's Phi Yaan-Zek's contribution to Marco Minnemann's project.
"Dance With The Anima" is a very impressive album. One second, Phi Yaan-Zek's melody lines flow alongside Marco's polymetric rhythms, while the other second, the guitar takes it one step further, adding zappa-esque twists and turns. I love it.
Top notch instrumental fusion.
