| | CD Review of Kakalla - The Seeds Of Analog Rebellion on Weltschmerz Records @ jazzreview.com |
 | | The visual aspect of Kakalla’s musical cinematics continue with “The Grand Inquisitor,” set up in a court, referring to The Brothers Karamazov, as Kneeland takes the suggestions inherent in the scene to musical re-creation by contrasting the rhythm of the opening motive with the free improvisation of the remainder of the piece. |
 | | And still, Kakalla finds interest in the possibilities of poetry, specifically “The Sea, The Bells,” inspired by Chilean poet Pablo Neruda, which consists of a relatively simple structure of descending modulations in three-four as Sabatini plays the parallel intervals of each phrase with his signature sense of Weltschmerz. |
 | | And in mythology, such as “The Death Of Sysyphus,” an exercise in free unplanned improvisation, with the addition of electronic effects, for a sonic texture, gradually growing into intensity and detail. |
