Listening to HIGH PHIDELITY it is easy to hear Spyra drawing
upon techno influences as much as the mysterious moods of
the spacemusic realm. He views the body and mind as parts of
the same organism, and the medium of electronica as a path
between many stylistic directions. On this double live CD, Spyra
explores the boundaries between opposites, and manages to
realize music that is always inviting and consistently engaging.
Made up of concert excerpts drawn from 2007 activity, HIGH
PHIDELITY finds Spyra playing with space on STAR'S END,
bursting with color and inflection at E-Day, soaring along
melodic lines and dancing shapes at Hampshire Jam and
weaving beautiful leads amidst complex interlocking patterns
and repetitive motifs at The Gatherings Concert Series. The
sound is vibrant, simultaneously loose and ordered, and with a
tight grip on the groove. Spyra gives us the spacey and the
dancey, but never the same way twice.

Tune in to STAR'S END this weekend for music from Spyra and
the CD HIGH PHIDELITY
