Album Review
Rowland, Jess – “Problem With The Soda Machine, The ” – [Edgetone Records]
humana 10/18/2008 A Library, CD
Is it easier to understand microwave ovens and windows than vending machines? This is the question treated in this quirky CD, inspired by a set of work emails (found in the liner notes) regarding a faulty vending machine in a break room. You have to listen to believe it. Full of dramatic music with humorously ridiculous content–irony is the order of the day here. And tongue in cheek is the mode. Jess Rowland???s creativity and willingness to make music out of any subject is admirable. PGM: Tracks end as early as :08, and 12 tracks through to 13. Picks: 7, 10, 5.
