Details:
"Music From A Sinking Ship is the debut full length album by Philip D''Agostino. Music From A Sinking Ship is a brilliantly crafted album with hints of so many different styles and genres of music that make this album so enjoyable to listen to. The album is all instrumental but the array of different instruments used definitely adds different voices and layers to the songs. "The Tyrant Majority Rides Again" is the first track and it hits you with a strong dose of electric buzz that later transitions into an upbeat, jazzy piano tune - and that''s only the beginning. "The Paper Street Scam" is a short but sweet song with brushed drums, distant panning and sheer beauty. The prominent saxophone use in "Knee Deep" really gives the song a jazz vibe. I loved how "Citizens Of The Empire" inspired me to research what a Sarod and Djembe were. Now I know the Sarod is responsible for the India influence and the Djembe provides the hand drumming. "Sunday On The Schuylkill" is one of those songs that will have you hooked on first listen. Not that any of the other songs pale in comparison but that song is an instant favorite of mine. At the very least I think this album is a great display of Philip D''Agostino''s musicianship and his ability to play a seemingly endless list of instruments. Also, it''s nice to see other musicians lending their skills to this album. All in all, love the album and I listen to it often. Yes, that means you should definitely get yourself a copy."
