Extractions: Relix Magazine: Issue 17-05 September/October - 1990 INDEPENDENTS DAZE by Mick Skidmore M ICKEY Hart, AtThe Edge (Rykodisc). Hart has always taken the world of percussionbased music to its edge, and this latest release, which is a companion piece to his and Jay Stevens's book Drumming At The Edge Of Magic is his most masterful effort to date. It finds him in his most exploratory and imaginative mood ever. The result is some really enthralling percussion music that draws on both ancient and modern ideas, and even though it's complex in nature this is extremely accessible stuff. The sound is simply breathtaking (even on an advance cassette), from the atmospheric opener "#4 For Gaia," which segues nicely into the lilting "Sky Water," through the rich, textured rhythms of "Lonesome Hero" and "Fast Sailing" to the the riveting sounds of "The Eliminators" and the tablaled "Brainstorm." The album closes on a truly eclectic note with "Pigs In Space," with Airto on vocals. Helping Hart out with this project are Zakir Hussain, Airto Moreira, Babatunde Olatunji, and Jerry Garcia, among others. A true percussion masterpiece.
