Free Music Review: Shades of Jeff Buckley
Hit: 4 Stars
Patrick Watson's voice is so eerily like that of the dearly departed Jeff Buckley....they both share a range and sweetness that overwhelm me at times. Listen to the passage from around 1:00 to 2:00 minutes on "Daydreamer" (track 2) and you'll hear what I'm talking about. My one quibble with Watson is that he sometimes overproduces his songs. "Daydreamer" is also a good illustration of that point -- the melody is lovely but Watson chooses to clutter it up with all manner of rather low-end special effects that would have been better kept in his synthesizer's memory. "Luscious Life" (track 8) also reminds me slightly of Sufjan Stevens. I'm hard pressed to detect any influence by Debussy or Satie, no matter what Watson's bio says.
This is a promising effort, and highly recommended.
