Labels: Runningonair Music
Review by: Captain Fidanza
This is the seventh album I have review from Runningonair Music and it’s probably the best yet.
As usual, there is lots of fantastic scientific nonsense on the press release which this time makes reference to the fact these four tracks have been made with accurate reference to “the frequency ratios of the orbits of the planets.”
I’m fairly sure that the people in the band “Travis” used similar data when recording the song “Sing.” Surely you haven’t forgotten it already? Come along, it was only 2001.
The chorus went like this:
But if you sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
For the love you bring won’t mean a thing
Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing.
Also, just in case there was anyone who was still slightly unsure about what the song, “Sing” by Travis was about, the band Travis sang the chorus from the song, “Sing” four times in the space of three minutes and forty-eight seconds.
The word “sing” was thus used 40 times, which means we can do the following equation to allow us insight into the frequency with which the word, “sing” was sung by the band Travis in the song, “Sing.”
3.48 ÷ 40 = 0.087
Coincidentally, 0.087 is the amount of time in seconds I had to listen to the music on this album before I knew it was brilliant.
In the first sentence I used the phrase, “probably the best yet” as perhaps the best thing about this fascinating label, is that although you never know quite what they’re going to release next, you know it’ll almost certainly be worth listening to.
Roll on the next lunatic experiment from these pioneering musical scientists.
