 Welcome To Studio M Live- Original Music Content and Writing Since 1997- Webcasts, Music Photography
Considering that Richard Barbieri has been a professional musician for close to 30 years, it may seem hard to believe that Things Buried is his first solo outing.
But it shouldn't be a surprise when you consider that Barbieri has always appeared to keep in the background, hanging dark synthesizer textures over other people's music, something he's done with Japan, Steve Hogarth's H band or in his role of the last ten years as Porcupine Tree's keyboardist.
Barbieri's analog keyboards shimmer on songs like “Nevada” and the cinematic “Fear and Trembling,” a number that sounds like it’s longing to be used in a science fiction film.

 Utter Trash--Porcupine Tree
Richard says his involvement with Porcupine Tree came about because, “Stephen was in another project called No-Man and he asked me to get involved in some recording with them and go on a short tour of the U.K. We did that and it was enjoyable.
Richard says, “I think we feel the most detached from ‘The Sky Moves Sideways’ era, a bit kind of bloated, progressive, long sprawling, sort of passages of music.
Richards says now, “we’ve kind of taken a turn in a heavier direction and the stage set is a lot more dynamic.

 DPRP : CONCERT REVIEW ARCHIVE
Barbieri made reference to the fact that he was a little nervous, given that he didn't have the security of a band around him, but he needn't have worried, as his playing was exemplorary.
Its not that exciting watching someone twiddle knobs and dials for 45 minutes however, so it was clear Barbieri would have to rely on the quality of the material.
Barbieri however saved the best for last with an excellent semi improvised track which, as he correctly introduced, really did 'start with a whimper and end with a bang'!

Gato Barbieri is the second Argentine musician to make a significant impact upon jazz -- the first being Lalo Schifrin, in whose band Barbieri played as a teenager.
He started out playing to traditional Latin rhythms in his early years, turning his back on his heritage to explore the jazz avant-garde in the '60s, reverting to South American influences in the early '70s, playing pop and fusion in the late '70s, only to go back and forth again in the '80s.
Yet after the turn of the next decade, Barbieri experienced a slow change of heart and began to reincorporate and introduce South American melodies, instruments, harmonies, textures, and rhythm patterns into his music.
