Dragon's Tongue (Spring)

In a musical landscape where everyone’s trying to be the next big thing, Robert Spring’s latest album "Dragons Tongue" serves as a gentle reminder that sometimes it’s okay to just be yourself. With his signature clarinet in hand, Spring weaves a tapestry of sound that is as enchanting as it is unexpected. From the moment the opening track hits your ears, you know you’re in for a wild ride. The fluttering notes dance around you like playful dragonflies, leading you deeper into a world where the clarinet reigns supreme. It’s a bold move in a genre dominated by guitars and synthesizers, but Spring pulls it off with finesse. Each track on "Dragons Tongue" feels like a journey into the depths of Spring’s mind. You can almost picture him sitting in a cozy armchair, surrounded by books and candles, as he lets his clarinet do the talking. The melodies are rich and complex, with layers of emotion that reveal themselves with each listen. But what really sets this album apart is Spring’s fearless experimentation. He’s not afraid to push the boundaries of traditional clarinet music, incorporating unexpected rhythms and textures that keep you on your toes. It’s a refreshing change of pace in a world that often feels stale and predictable. So if you’re looking for something a little different, a little quirky, and a whole lot of fun, do yourself a favor and give "Dragons Tongue" a listen. Robert Spring may not be a household name (yet), but with albums like this, he’s well on his way to becoming a legend in his own right.
