Architects of Time by Ben Rusch Ben Rusch : Architects of Time.
Unique to the power of twenty-two (so far...).


Have you ever felt a craving for music that is extremely classy but accessible at the same time? In the album "Architects of Time" you can join Ben for a stroll through some of the surprising landscapes that lie between Rock and Folk, to find a quirky and interesting musical world where laughter follows goose bumps in rapid succession.

Listening to the album, you will find out why nowadays, Robin Hood just fancies some time by himself every now and then; you will be introduced to an alternative version of paradise where Adam and Eve eat the serpent rather than the apple; and you will learn how a jet pack can be usefully employed during the first few hours of the day if you are not a self-declared "morning person".

The album presents you with intimate folk arrangements on the one end of the spectrum, and rock songs of epic breadth on the other. And everything that lies between the two. Lipstik Indie magazine calls the album a "musical masterpiece" and with so much musical goodness to be found on the album, who are we to disagree?!

The album also features astounding viola performances by Bimbi Urquhart. To give you an idea as to quite how astounding these are: album reviews so far have been divided over the question as to whether her work on the album was simply "world class" or in the "ultimate world class".

Let's give it a listen, shall we...
