Tim Harris, violin and trumpet, Dave Murray, drums, Jason Schimmel, guitar and banjo, bassist Tim Smolens, and John Wooley, sax, met in the late '90s at the U.C.-Santa Cruz school of music, where they divided up an interest in the tackiest aspects of pop culture and the to the highest degree inordinate forms of music. Their first record album, It's Understood, appeared with following to no commercial-grade fanfare in the leap of 2000 as the number one spillage on Mr. Bungle guitarist Trey Spruance's homespun label Mimicry Records. Their feverish ruffle of jazz, alloy, video recording game themes, and blue grass was eaten up by hard-core Mr. Bungle fans, merely went largely unnoticed elsewhere. With instrumentality resembling Bela Fleck and the Flecktones, Estradasphere doesn't ever call forth immediate sonic comparisons to Mr. Bungle, merely their manic, short-attention-span philosophy of writing apparently does. Drawing on influences all over the musical spectrum, a great deal inside the same birdcall, Estradasphere amply demonstrates the breadth of their technical musical talent on a song-by-song basis. Although their first album doesn't certify the conciseness of Mr. Bungle or Secret Chiefs 3, it stretches out as an telling musical landscape for such a young set of musicians. Accompanied onstage by a collecting of Bohemian artists, ranging from fire-breathers to book-readers, Estradasphere exudes an excess of vernal muscularity and creativity, which, with a decorous amount of packaging, could finally grant them a solid resistance following. |
