Polly Moller definitely has created one of the most unique hybrid projects in
my memory with the release of "Taste The Wall". The core of the music is jerky
electronic percussion and bassline, overlayed with a real flute and spoken
poetry. The majority of this music was all written solely by Polly Moller, and
would be impossible to recreate in a live session because of the sheer variety
of instrumentation utilized. Nevertheless, this is the kind of thing I think
would go over well in a modern coffer bar, with a DAT machine playing most of
the electronics and the solo artist standing at a microphone with her flute
interspersing it with various vocal diatribes. The whole album has a really hip
Bohemian feel to it that would certainly make it a hit in someplace like the
East Village in Manhattan. Kudos to Polly Moller for being daring enough to
develop an unique style of music with the potential to crossover into the
mainstream under the right circumstances.
