Yhtye on saanut kiittävän vastaanoton. European Progressive Rock Review sijoitti Aquaplanin esikoislevyn sivuston "Hall of Fameen", mm. Jethro Tullin, Mike Oldfieldin ja Pink Floydin seuraan. Listalle kelpuutetaan klassikoiden lisäksi uusia tulokkaita, silloin kun arvioitsijoiden mielestä "on selvää, että heissä on jotain erityistä": “This album is a pure treasure to listen to and should not be missed by all fans of the genre. As with Iona, the progressive elements are not always obvious, nonetheless they are there. A debut album from a band that instantly makes it into EPRR's Hall Of Fame. If they continue with this style of music they will remain there for a very long time. 100%"

ProGGnosis arvioi Aquaplanin musiikin hyvin kirjoitetuksi, mielenkiintoiseksi ja luovaksi: “The music is on the mellow side but always interesting and creative. Stylistically it cannot be categorised in one specific genre. There is some light Jazz, celtic, pop and prog all mixed together and a few other surprises. All the tracks are "song based" but there is always something interesting going on with the musicians and the occasional soloing lets them show their stuff once in a while. The music and the production are very "licked". At times I get a Sade feel or even Joni Mitchell in her jazzier period. ... The songs are all very well written. To me this is the main strength of this album, this and Maarit Saarenkunnas very beautiful voice.”

   About Aquaplan

.. Aquaplan was founded in Oulu, Finland in 1999. The idea was to create music containing the challenging song structures and time signatures used in progressive rock, rich harmonic tradition of jazz, accessibility of pop tunes and sensitivity of folk music. Aquaplan is also available at Old Waves New Seas and CD Baby

Aquaplan kutsuu musiikkiaan folkprogejazzrockpopiksi, vaikka tyylilaji sinänsä ei ole orkesterille tärkeä kysymys. Tärkeämpää on soittaa haastavaa ja innoittavaa musiikkia samanhenkisten muusikoiden joukossa. Yhtyeen musiikkia saa myös Old Waves New Seassta and CD Babysta.

David Franks: Walkabouts Verse

David Franks: Walkabouts Verse



Aug 9 2009 4:04 PM

(Hi: enjoyed my visit.)

After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem sung on myspace...

Poem 2 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse
(please see my blog):
WALKABOUT WITH MY PEN

Once drove an old sedan, up north,
From a place in Sydney to Cairns;
Then to Kuranda I went forth,
By train, to look without set plans.

I browsed through the trendy market,
With fresh fruits of tropical kind;
Walked to the creek through lush thicket -
Nature’s hand giving peace of mind.

I dined in a scenic cafe;
Then, outside, as I wrote for yen,
Some passing Kooris called-out: “Hey,
You go walkabout with your pen.”

Request or question, I don’t know -
Assured voices, elderly men.
That’s now several years ago,
And I’ve seen the world - with my pen.

(C) David Franks 2003
