Drumkit Quartets, the collaborative album by Glenn Kotche and So Percussion, is a tour-de-force of percussion-driven music that is both mesmerizing and exhilarating. The album features eight compositions, each one showcasing the unique talents of the four percussionists involved.
From the opening track, "Drumkit Quartet #51," which builds from a hypnotic, pulsating rhythm to a frenzied, explosive climax, to the hauntingly beautiful "Drumkit Quartet #54," which features delicate chimes and ethereal vocal harmonies, the album is a masterclass in the art of percussion music.
Kotche and So Percussion have crafted a sound that is both complex and accessible, blending elements of contemporary classical music, jazz, and rock to create a style that is all their own. The musicianship on display is truly impressive, with each member of the quartet contributing to the overall sound in a unique and essential way.
