Minor 7th
“Silent Voices,” Michael Mucklow’s 4th fingerstyle oriented CD, is very much like an audio retreat… a sonic space where serenity, introspection and quietude reign. Each tune rolls like a gentle sea with patterns that flow, evolve and create a familiarity and a sense of wholeness. “Silent Voices” is less a collection of tunes as it is musical vista that creates an ergonomic-ness in the listener. Very reminiscent of Windham Hill releases of the late 70′s, Silent Voices continues the journey of Mucklow’s previous CD’s, but has a crispness and sense of purpose that might surprise. “Reflections” encapsulates the grandeur of these gracious grooves, while the tasteful bass work of Dean Cerny on “Floating in the Cove” ripples like the prefect lazy autumn afternoon.

Instrumentation

I used three truly wonderful guitars on this album, all being made from certified sustainable guitar tonewoods. Walden Guitars has taken a big step forward in guitar making with their Madera line. I’m honored to be associated with Walden Guitars for the past five years, and now even more so since they’ve chosen to respect our beautiful planet’s natural resources. If you’re a player, please consider the Walden Madera line of guitars.
