PP3 - Funky Feet - Full Length Album Review
PP3’s new full length release “Funky Feet” has captured amazing energy, quality recording, and a well produced CD. Throughout this album PP3 dig’s deep from within amid seamlessly integrated storyline’s that evolve and refresh. I enjoyed every song on this album. PP3 consists of Phil Parnell, Torben Bjornskov, and Espen Laub they started working together during the January “Danish Deep Freeze Tour” alongside Lillian Boutte the vocalist, and from that point on they hit it off.
“Funky Feet” their newest release is the perfect example of a job well done out of Phil’s Village Studio in London, England. In this album the trio manages to hit different moods as the album progresses, it’s sound is influenced by a touch of New Orleans. “One Child” reminded me of being outdoors in the sun; it has a rich full sounding catchy rhythm. Another well produced track is “Torbsong” it has so many articulate sounds and a nice bouncy bassline. “Torbsong” is a good listening track
There are some excellent tunes on this recording, complete with dynamic flurries engineered upon crashing cadenzas and cascading progressions, the trio surges forward with a rumbling, free form gait that seems uncannily structured. At times they wind matters down into a minimalist framework that creates a semblance of desolate environs. Since its recent release, this album has become a critic’s favorite.
