JAIQ Mootzart Has a good 80's feel. my favourite out of the selection for sure. Favorite track: Yeglo.

mdhrocks1980 Been listening to the tracks and music for a while now and have heard variations of the pieces.
Love the way they have sounded from their raw initial mixes to these new versions.
Keep up the good work and I hope we can collaborate on some projects next year.

imhyperbolic I am prone to exaggeration, but this is brilliant. Even the combined talents of Lennon/McCartney, Ulvaeus/Andersson and Gary Barlow couldn't surpass the compositional genius of CURVEBALL. BUY BUY BUY SHARE SHARE SHARE Favorite track: 13chordsofminimalisticism.

about

CURVEBALL make music without words and agree with the sentiments of the esteemed composer Felix Mendelssohn:

"People usually complain that music is so ambiguous, that it leaves them in such doubt as to what they are supposed to think, whereas words can be understood by everyone. But to me it seems exactly the opposite."

The only clue to the composer's inspiration is in the title and possibly within the music itself.

PLEASE LISTEN and make CURVEBALL as unambiguously meaningful as you want it to be.

WHAT MUSICAL GENRE IS CURVEBALL?

This is a challenge facing this composer every time he submits his music. What genre? What sub-genre? What? I don't know!

Well it is a studio project, so it seems expedient to call it electronic. There is no band or orchestra. Not at the moment, anyway.

Actually, CURVEBALL music exists because there was a desire to write music for an orchestra - to create a score and have a large group of musicians play grand (hopefully) music.

So... WHAT MUSICAL GENRE IS CURVEBALL?

Well, this composer doesn't care what genre it is. You can only produce something from within; an accumulation of influences.

If you have read up to this point - thanks! If you listen to CURVEBALL music - thanks! If you want to buy CURVEBALL music - many thanks! If you want some help in knowing what is the genre or definition of this music, then here are some of the notable influences in alphabetical order:

Abba America Aphex Twin Bach Barber John Barry Beatles Bjork Dave Brubeck David Bowie Can Cinematic Orchestra Elgar Genesis Goldfrapp Gorecki Handel PJ Harvey Kraftwerk Lamb LCD Soundsystem Leftfield Massive Attack Mogwai John Murphy Gary Numan Pearl Jam Pink Floyd Radiohead Rodrigo Rush Saint-Saens Stereolab TalkTalk Underworld Who Vaughan Williams Yes Neil Young... ...and so much more.

If you like any of those artists, there is a chance you will like CURVEBALL. Best, JM

So... WHAT MUSICAL GENRE IS CURVEBALL?

Poor Man Zart
by Jaiq Mootzart

Stunning new typically eclectic work. This release dips into the electronic world with its associated imaginative production as in F'eked Noir. The love of disco/funk eg. Fluorescence shines through!! CURVEBALL

Black Hole People

Superb guitarist, song writer and self-produced! This is unique music with an underlying emotion, that forces the listener to introspect. All great music needs time and repeated plays. Recommended! CURVEBALL
