"Aluminosity" by Arch Echo -- First time reaction!

[@L33Reacts]

Thanks for watching guys! Y’all are amazing. Sorry for the location but hey, I can’t record at my “place” at the moment so this will have to do. Enjoy! What other songs by Arch Echo should I check out??

1:41 Dude’s name is Joey Izzo on those keys haha!

3:48 Yeah man, spot on - these guys really vouch for Owane too. They’re all in that same kind of sphere of music that’s very expressive and oftentimes sprawling, frequently returning to established rhythms, melodies, etc! 👌🏼

The motifs are difficult to pick up on at first, but listening to the song a few more times unlocks the brilliance of this piece and how fantastically Rudess' solo fits in with the song.

4:55 Given that you mentioned setup, I should let you know a few things haha - Jordan Rudess not only is the keyboard player for Dream Theater, but he also has his own line of quirky keyboard apps you can compose and write on, and even make samples. It’s a company called ‘Wisdom Music’. And he’s often referred to as “the Wizard” 😂 This is a big deal as Arch Echo have not only toured with Dream Theater in recent years, but are currently on tour with Haken (who I know you like too!), those of whom are also kinda following in D.T’s footsteps. It’s a great time for prog 🤩

2:35 Yep, instrumental indeed! Been a band since 2017!

[@wilksy2008]

Yes dude! 👀 Jordan Rudess plays with Dream Theater bro 👀

7:46 Alright, alright, calm down 👀😂👌🏼 Plenty more where this came from bro! This was/is their most recent single, they’re dropping a new album this summer. I am not ready, even if I think I am 😅🙈 I’ll hand you some more of their stuff in June’s requests man along with The Enigma Division! ✨ 🌌
