There are few artists who have been so consistent over the
many years I have been following them musically as Curtis Macdonald, he has been in the industry for some three
decades, even from my first album of his Shadow
Crossing in 2002, time and time again he produces upmarket classy work and
never fails to satisfy the need of really good instrumental music fan with a tender
mood, and this new single continues that lengthy legacy and is called When We Meet Again.
The first few opening bars are a symbiosis of keyboards and
pads as the direction of the track kicks in, then percussion adds its rhythm to
the proceedings and another TV theme is in the making, there is something about
Macdonald’s music that always makes you feel like you have been given a warm
hug.
The tender onward progression is a delight, and the tonal
backdrop and pads offer an almost 90’s feel to the proceedings, this calm yet
moving reverie is like visiting a scrapbook and gazing fondly over all the years
of laughter and joy that have flowed between the cracks of time and tide.
Curtis Macdonald is in the foreground of this new
movement now called New Age pop without a shadow of a doubt, and long may he
remain so, and I think therefore that When
We Meet Again will add another notch in his musical belt, and a truly good
chat position along the way.
