Fromuz = From Uz = From Uzbekistan. "Audio Diplomacy" is a work of a new instrumental fusion quartet from Uzbekistan. Without making the usual cliche comparisons I can honestly say that this is very fresh and modern fusion with lots of energy. The band incorporates a variety of influences from prog rock to fusion to even spacey keys in spots. There is a bit of an ethnic Asian undercurrent to the music that makes Fromuz stand out a bit from the crowd. Believe it or not this set comes with an NTSC Region 0 pro shot DVD of the band's live performance in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. I really enjoyed this set and can recommend it highly. If that's not enough here's the record company hype:
"Fromuz was officially introduced to the world through the compositions that they debuted in April 2005 at the Youth Theater of Uzbekistan, in Tashkent. This incredibly energetic and expressive live performance is testimony to the intense musical statement that is Fromuz. This seminal live performance was elaborately filmed with multiple cameras and was produced as a DVD, along with an audio CD of the performance in pristine clarity. The final CD/DVD combination release is entitled "Audio Diplomacy".
Featuring over 70 minutes of material, “Audio Diplomacy” archives a live performance by a band that is destined to be regarded as one of the most dynamic live bands performing on stage anywhere in the world today. The amazing level of musicianship and interplay between its members show that Fromuz is truly ready to take the current progressive music scene by storm.
Most recently Fromuz has been invited to perform at the 2007 edition of the Baja Prog Festival in Mexicali, Mexico (www.bajaprog.org). “Audio Diplomacy” will be released in early 2007 in plenty of time for everyone to familiarize themselves with this incredible act prior to their Baja Prog performance in March of 2007. Ken Westphal, known for his outstanding design work on both releases by the band Proto-Kaw, created the artwork for “Audio Diplomacy”."
