Emerald Waters
Just finished listening to "Emerald Waters" by Hollan Holmes, released by Spotted Peccary Music.
Now in the interest of fairness under my personal guidelines for reviews here on Facebook and other Social Media sites, once upon a time, Hollan Holmes and I were friends on Facebook. We've never met in person, nor to the best of my knowledge did we ever exchanged emails or IMs. I simply believe that Hollan Holmes updated his Facebook with another page here on Facebook when he was signed by Spotted Peccary Music - prior to that he independently produced and sold his CDs - to provide it a fresher look, nothing more, nothing less.
The connection between water and life is vibrantly explored in richly textured melodies derived from a single moment in Holmes' life when on a car ride with his father, they drove over a bridge spanning a creek Del Rio, Texas years ago. The memory of that moment stayed with Homes and he used it as inspiration for this album that follows the course of the creek and life it provides through layer upon layer of techno-sync music the envelop the listener throughout the course of the water's journey.
My favorite tracks on this CD are: "A Ribbon of Life," "The River," "Changing Course," "Emerald Waters," "Taken By The Current," and "Tales From The Abyss."
Another great CD from Hollan Holmes that shows his growth as a musician.
Strongly Recommended!
Five Stars!
