Moonlight

Thu, 21 Feb 2008 15:02:51 GMT

Moonlight is an original, electronic, classical release. written on my synthesizer. I invented this masterpiece [Christmas 2007]. a very strange time for me [historically]. everyone seems broke [financially]. this instrumental suite has an eerie, other worldly connection.

the 'Solo Records' cd

Sun, 10 Sep 2006 03:33:00 GMT

the 'Solo Records' cd has been around in one form or another since the release of the solocassette in 1992. it was based on a original set that I'd practice at my trailer. after a concert for the mentally ill in Spartanburg, the live show fizzled out. niteclub owners weren't interested in a karaoke singer that sang originals in those dayz. I bought 100 blank cassettes [twice] & pressed over 250 copies altogether in 1995/1996. I wore a fanny pack chock full of original cassettes everywhere I went. I would sell these to people. I was at Outside In dabbling in art & playing coffee shops w/ my wife until 2000 when I began playin local niteclubs. I started work on the 'Solo Records' cd in 2005. I recorded all the instruments & added synthesizer to fatten things up. www.cdbaby.com/curciomusic2

six-string bass solo

Tue, 21 Nov 2006 00:23:51 GMT

six-string bass solo is basically a 22-minute bass guitar/vocal improvisation that I recorded [1988]. In 2006, I added some synthesizer w/ timpani drums. it's basically about droppin outta the mainstream into the underground music scene [left of center]. complete w/ bass guitar solos & swirling synthesizer..... www.curciomusic.com

Tron Blast

Tue, 21 Nov 2006 00:43:23 GMT

I wrote/recorded Tron Blast in Spring 2006 over a 6-8 week period. I was gettin alot of requests to de-tune my bass guitar and record more solos. I came up w/ some patented bass guitar solos, jammin along w/ the drum trax. then I added synthesizer as counterpoint to spice things up. one of the trax is over 10 minutes long. this is a good album to listen to [Instrumental]. everything is uptempo [wide-open] verging on Jazz Rock....contact NeoRockist@aol.com

Negative Ambiguity

Sat, 25 Nov 2006 08:57:40 GMT

Negative Ambiguity is edgy, raw & emotionally charged from the start. I was developing some of the concepts I had explored in my guitar playing, adding synthesizer to fatten things up. "Spanish Inquisition" is based on an Italian folk song, but this album is full of my most ambitous, original guitar/bass playing. it all started out as chord progressions/music w/o any lyrics in 2005. In the space of a few dayz, I had written the lyrics/melodies for the vocals - experimenting w/ an operatic baritone for "Nervous Breakdown".
