LIQUID TENSION EXPERIMENT

Liquid Tension Experiment

Liquid Tension Experiment is an instrumental rock project consisting of Dream Theater members John Petrucci (guitar), Jordan Rudess (keyboard), and Mike Portnoy (drums), as well as progressive rock icon Tony Levin (bass, Chapman Stick) of King Crimson and Peter Gabriel. The combo was formed as a side project to Dream Theater in 1998 (though Rudess was with the Dixie Dregs and not a member of Dream Theater at the time - some theorise that he was asked to join the band largely because of the success of the Liquid Tension Experiment). The band played fast, fusion-based pieces similar to those of Dream Theater, if somewhat more jazzy, and (almost entirely) devoid of vocals.

Liquid Tension Experiment released two albums, Liquid Tension Experiment (1998) and Liquid Tension Experiment 2 (1999) on Magna Carta records. They also played a few live shows in New York, Philadelphia, and Los Angeles. Mike Portnoy has stated in numerous interviews (and on his web site FAQ) there won't be a third LTE album since the band is 3/4 of the current Dream Theater line up. However, several songs and "riffs" have made it to live Dream Theater songs, like the instrumental medley from Live at Budokan.

Asta da... un proiect excelent al unor super muzicieni. Tony Levin se potriveste la fel de bine cu cei 3 dream-eri in proiectul asta, ca si Myung in Dream Theater.

doar o problema:puteau si ei sa aibe macar 2 melodii cu voce fiindca asa instrumental parca e nitel anemic

jazzul cu voce e cam aiurea. intrucat LTE au o directie fff accentuata spre jazz, vocea nu-si avea rostul. era in plus.

Ia uite ce premonitie/inspiratie a avut "amadeus" sa deschida acest topic... Tocmai citeam pe un site "vecin" ca se ia in calcul lansarii unui L.T.E. 3! Ar fi de mare efect...

bai ciel , nu stiu daca ti-am multumit pt recomandarea albumului de la fate's warning ca sincer e misto

Si ia uite ca mi-ai multumit acum de doua ori.
Ma bucur ca iti place!

stiam eu ca uitasem ca iti mai multumisem odata

ideea era ca ai postat acelasi lucru de 2 ori

on-topic: azi am reascultat Acid Rain

Imi doresc sa vad un live. Sau macar sa ii ascult live! Cineva? Ceva?

Super!!!
De-abia acu am vzt mesajul. Il declar pe Portnoy maestrul meu

yuli_capone, s-ar putea sa mai gasesti pe Google Video, sau daca nu, undeva pe torrente o filmare (de amator) al unei cantari de la NAMM 2001.

Si apropo de LTE 3, nu, nu e adevarat. In schimb, luna asta se lanseaza "Liquid Trio Experiment", o "adunatura" a inregistrarilor facute de Portnoy, Rudess si Levin, in timpul inregistrarilor de la LTE2, in perioada cand Petrucci a fost absent (datorita finalizarii sarcinii nevestei dansului )

nu poti sa spui ca astia canta jazz... pe langa jazz am vazut influente arabesti si tot felu' de atmosfere care se aud si pe la dream(home) . Oricum baga tehnica... sunt f grele progresiile alea, pe chitara cel putin. Si melodia in general e foarte interesanta, meditativa, linistitoare. Maestri bre.
