Title: Not so good
Review: I'm sorry to say something less than enthusiastic about this album, but I found it to be pretty rough listening. Hiromi does play with a fair degree of virtuosity, but the music as a whole seems tepid at best. The rhythm section is weak, seemingly lacking a sense of dynamics. The electronic parts seemed to have been tacked on as some afterthought, kitsch rather than interesting. Given the fact that electronic beats are so malleable, the electronic parts here seem particularly banal.It's difficult for me to understand how the editorial review puts this music in the same league as The Bad Plus.
