"Future Music XI concisely compounds classic-rock influence with heartfelt, mature vision, skilled craft, and melodic charm.
The best thing about this is that every song matters, no filler, just a clean wedge of sound and songwriting, with Rob Barsky and Rich Arbaugh proving that a telepathic duo can handle multi-instrumentation without seeming studio-sterile.
Maybe it's true that "there's no one to blame for the hurricane," as the wonderfully compassionate "Katrina" puts it, but equally true is the tag line, "the aftermath defines who we are," and so this album defines its creators: masters of a ruefully inspired brand of chamber-rock that draws from the richness of the past, calls to a troubled present, and dares us all to face the future."
Hello Everyone, This is Rich from Future Music. As Many of you know Rob Barsky, Rock Star, my best friend, brother, loving father, and mentor to many the world over passed away suddenly on Friday Feb 8th, 2008. This has been a very trying time for all us as we deal with this individually and together. What I can tell you is that Future Music will continue. Rob and I were working on Future Music XIV – Eternal Future and it will be finished. This is what Rob always wanted and I am going to do my best to honor that call. Rob is Future Music and always will be. I will do my best to catch up on messages, etc... but I still need time to grieve. I hope that you will all evaluate your lives and consider how Rob touched each of you during this time. Also to realize what is “really important in life” and how important people and relationships are to each of us. Please hug someone you love for Rob.
As Always “Thanks for listening”
Rich.
Please consider making donations to the American Red Cross by purchasing any Future Music CD (http://cdbaby.com/cd/futuremusic) or directly (http://www.redcross.org) on Rob’s behalf. This is the charity Lauren, his loving daughter has requested.
