String Smarts
curious finds plucky strings (OSPK-086)
There are a few instruments that seem to perfectly match unique character traits. Tuba often accompanies bumbling buffoonery, piccolo for quick and spritely creatures, and electric guitar accents youthful or edgy acts of rebellion. But orchestral stringed instruments like violin, viola, and cello can take on nearly any shape or emotion. It’s all in how you utilize these chameleon instruments.
On String Smarts (OSPK-086), pizzicato strings carry varying levels of curiosity while quick bow movements fuel potential and future possibilities. You’ve heard composer Sam Ecoff’s well-crafted scoring throughout many releases on our Modus Operandi label like Taking Flight (MOPM-046). His arrangements and compositions range from massive inspirational orchestrations to simple string quartets, using an album’s creative direction as a compass. This album takes a quieter, inquisitive, and playful approach to highlight the spark and wonder of technological advancements, creative ideas and research teams, or good old fashioned make-believe.
There’s magic in each of these stories, and the pizzicato strings on tracks like “Boundless Happiness” conjure up images that can fit whichever storytelling avenue you want to follow. Never getting too big or too small, String Smarts colors outside the lines while keeping curiosity front and center.
