RECENT REVIEW AT PARIS TRANSATLANTIC...........................................
There's a practicality to the title of this record that understates its worth and measure. Kahl Monticone, a long serving member of the Brisbane rock underground, has developed a language on guitar loaded with skilfully deployed actions that drift from technical accuracy to spatial compositional excellence. Recorded to bring out much of the character of the instrument, including a richly detailed audio image of the strings (as much as the tones that follow their strumming), Solo Nylon String Acoustic Guitar assumes a pensive quality over the course of its ten pieces, each of which enquires into the melodic possibilities of the instrument. Most impressive are "four", which leaves a series of open chords to waver amid clusters of pitches, and "eight", a more picturesque sound tale, generous in movement and scaling a variety of playing styles. The rustling of Monticone's clothing emerges from time to time, adding a sense of the "person" to the musical space. Effortless, handsome and ultimately charming.–LE
