The Year Album by Harpaxe combines a neo sixties format and sound of clean electric guitar, acoustic 12 string, strings, bass and drums, with the compositional techniques of the great classical composers. A good balance of musical predictability and surprise has been achieved notwithstanding the short running times of between 3 and 4 minutes per track while keeping within a consistent overall framework. These 12 tracks, January, February etc, develop from the dark winter melancholy to the brightness of summer before returning to the severity of winter once more. In the mind of Harpaxe melody is of primary importance yet an interesting chord structure enhances the overall effect for no one month is uniformly sunny, cold or damp but each has its characteristic moments of beauty. So which is your favourite month? User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
