The Great Unknown is my attempt at a music feature column that will showcase bands and projects that range from indie label releases to home studio ones. These reviews and articles will cover the groups and accomplishments I think deserve a little more recognition for the work that they are doing.
The first entry is a shameless plug. What can I say? Well, I have given coverage to the artists who have influenced me as a listener and I have even given coverage to the artists that have influenced me as a musician. I have had my fair share of discussions with the BC residents and I think I have given my fair share of time and brain power, as a rookie writer and music connoisseur, to this fantastic site. That being said, I think shining a little light on my own works from time to time wouldn't be such a horrible thing.
Honestly, I wouldn't have entertained any thoughts of writing this article or leaving myself wide open for criticism if I didn't think the music I am presenting, for the first time ever, wasn't something to be proud of. I know you have a biased article ahead of you to read, but isn't music subjective anyways? Alright, already... on with the review!
Santora & Garrepy are the duo made up of one part Ben Santora and one part Brian Garrepy. No Dilution Necessary. Meeting for the first time through the infamous Boston Craigslist, "The Improv Experiment" (not an official project name) is the session that was recorded live in two parts, so far, at the Jamspot here in Somerville, Massachusetts. These sessions are totally improvised using just guitar (Santora) and drums (Garrepy) with the focus being on musical exploration that creates a piece that is still aesthetically pleasing.
