This is a classical guitar EP by Wichael R. Willow published by Black Sheep Music. It includes four guitar pieces and moves to dark trails with a lot of serenity. Unlike Spanish guitar classics, this album has a different feeling. It is very laid back and relaxed and one can sense that the driving force behind the pieces is their structure rather than their melodies. It is not a typical Spanish guitar album and the influences are very rich from different musical eras, from Baroque to late Romantic. The interpretation is unique as the classical tremolos are present together with a dirty, rock feeling.
What is the reason of this release?
The pieces were composed long before the fans had asked to release some classical guitar pieces, which means that the demand does not affect the creativity. This is an attempt to embrace all the styles of music and give to the people the different tone of creativity and musicality, Music has no limits, it doesn?t matter if these ideas are not new in the history of music. When you want to express your feelings there is no limitation in how to do that. You just do it.

1) Deep Red Umbrella (song and videoclip discussed here)
2) Iceberg’s Music. A song inspired by nature connecting the iceberg with the free spirit as it is expressed in Deep Red Umbrella. An abstract song, it changes from 3/4 to 4/4 and back again.
3) Life Of My Own. Isolation and problems in the human relationships due to the human nature that always to asks. “But there is always a door locked, no golden rain surpasses it”. A sad song that describes the negativity that comes from vanity.
4) Call Me Strange (song and videoclip discussed here)
5) My Story. Another example of how amazingly can the mood of a song change, from slow and calm to fast and hard. A song inspired by what happens in the politics, especially the relations between the West and East world. It points out that people will pay the price for almost everything as we live in a badly ruled world and it is not easy to see any real change under the current circumstances.
6) Juicy July A song about the seasons, the change from summer too autumn…a dark feeling of beautiful things that belong to the past and a promise that happiness will come back again someday.
7) Flame This song is a story about a man who things he lives in a world full of monsters and dreadful creatures (the Monsterland). He is trying to find the way out of this sanity that enters him in an endless depression.
8 ) Drifting Back (song and videoclip discussed here)
9) Whispers In The Wind. The classical piece of the collection, inspired mainly by John Dowland and some late Romantic music idioms. It is included in the collection because this is the last essential piece that completes the diversity of the album and also it is popural among the public.
10) Old Turkishman. An abstract, funny song that gives a positive finale. “Old Turkishman give me coal to burn…” when I was walking around in Dublin, I got in a store to buy firewood and there was a Turkish salesman and we started talking….
All the videoclips of the album are also available in a youtube playlist.
