Reno Cruz and the progressive mantra excited sonic tension of "The Problem"

 












"I don’t mind waiting for the right one it’s / Just the right one might never come / I’m alone in this until / Then I guess I should get to know myself..."

The organic rhythms, percussive thwacks and sublimely potent drums, rising synths sounds, guitar pushes, amazing whimsical and feral horns, acoustic hearts, electronic brain, all to 5/4 time while Reno Cruz exorcises demons of youth, of getting in line and maybe following before choosing self. This is the densely moving universe of "The Problem". The song almost feels like a mantra or a re-examination of childhood fears. Love the trance like feeling, of music and voice like those bells in the spirit world as the voice of the universe, but are we listening? 

Dig the vibe here like a harmonizing meditation, just don't believe all the messages, "Break the rules I’m an / Idiot I’m a Replicant / I don’t know how to / Be real"

-Robb Donker Curtius
