Electrum News: July 01, 2008
Project "III"
Since rehearsals began last August, the band has sketched out six compositions, all currently in different stages of development. Content-wise, they seem to be a natural progression of both Dave & Gino's solo releases, featuring shorter track lengths, lyrical guitar melodies, and world music tinges, with Joe adding his unique perspective on rock drumming. Another wildly eclectic release seems to be in the offering.
Side projects: Dave Kulju - "Abstract Expression"
Dave wrote, recorded, and produced the record in his home studio working with a number of talented guest musicians.
This collection of music while experimental enough for most progressive music fans places a heavy focus on strong melodies and well crafted songwriting. Listeners will be rewarded with hard driving pieces like "Internal Combustion" and "The Main Attraction" but also treated to more contemplative works like "Pleiades" and "The Depth of Autumn". The charm of the quirky and unpredictable are well represented in "Picnic at the Slag Heap" and the lengthy "Somnium".

Dave released his debut solo CD "Abstract Expression" in May. The CD features 9 instrumental compositions that explore various textures and styles within the Progressive Rock genre.
Gino released four jazz/world fusion CDs last year: "Orbis Terrarum", "Sphere Of Influence", "Bhavachakra", and "Vedic Mantras". Please visit GinoFoti.com or WorldFusionMusic.com for more information and mp3 excerpts of every track.
