PLATURNO ~ NÚCLEOS MYLODON 043 ~ CHILE ~ Progressive Rock Recorded: 2006Released: 2006 1st album by Chilean Prog / Fusion band PlaturnoFind albums by this artist, a guitar / keyboards / drums trio led by guitarist Felipe RiveraFind albums by this artist. Together with a couple of guest musicians (bass & violin) they present a mostly instrumental debut album of great strength and surprising musical ideas. The guitar contributes a distinctive Fusion feel, but the use of keyboards is very original and rather than play melody they provides sonic layers which are more atmospheric than melodic, resembling Space Rock. The overall effect is very unusual and considering most of the music is kept in low tempo, it sounds like an imaginary soundtrack, all truly captivating and often hypnotic. Some traces of King CrimsonFind albums by this artist influence can be found (typical of almost all Chilean bands), but this is undoubtedly their very individual statement. Considering this is their debut effort, they are certainly something to look out for in the future. Here is one more band from Chile, which certainly seems to be a place where things are happening in music in the 21st Century. Warmly recommended!
