PAUL O'HARA : Senseless Acts of Beauty

“Minimal pastoralism influenced by the American and European Avant garde played on acoustic instruments with very sparse effects but plenty of beautiful accidents. First Sonoris C.D. release by English instrumentalist / composer takes it’s title from the story of counterculture revolution since the 60's. A quiet revolution against attitude overload. (Paul O'Hara)
This records contains ten compositions mostly played on Wurlitzer piano. A very beautiful music (and I mean music) with cool bits of classic tonality, played like a cat lying in the sun, that might recall to the listener early 20th century french music (Satie, Debussy, ...), Brian Eno's Obscure collection and also some aspects of the post-rock scene. A perfect music to do nothing, just looking at the ceiling and thinking of the persons you loved, ... something that recalls silence and absence. (Love it or hate it, this is the first record released on the label after a spontaneous demo and one of my favorite records so far)”
