Free Music Notes for Blast: An Explosive Musical Celebration

Free Music Review: Surprisingly melodramatic for a CD entitled "Blast"
Hit: 2 Stars

After seeing the end of the PBS documentary, I expected a lot more "Blast" in this CD, especially a lot more BRASS. Instead almost every song is slow to develop and somewhat kitchy in its mix of instruments... from minor percussion instruments to obviously re-mixed (ie; quieted) brass and sound effects. It was obviously recorded in a studio, detracting from its energy and power... the live show seemed a lot better. Perhaps the reason is this CD isn't meant to be listened to, but SEEN. Afterall, it is classified as a soundtrack. I give it a 2... not because of the musicians, but because of underwhelming production.

Free Music Review: Unoriginal, cheap tricks. More like talent show.
Hit: 2 Stars

Blast is a very well-coordinated show, as it is suposed to be. It employs a variety of different themes, instruments, and atmostphere, unlike, say, Stomp. But Blast does not feel like a theatrical piece. The majority of the show cold be played during a highschool football halftime or at an amusement park and could be well-recieved, but not in a theater. Where the producers do attempt to showcase some artistic originality, they fail quite miserably. Performers are enthusiastic, but they just don't deliver the absorbing, fascinating dynamics that, for example, Stomp does.
