"Factory Blue", the debut release by Gooding, is meant to be a soundtrack to an
unrealized film by the same name. As a result, this album is much like
Download's "Charlie's Family", in that all the tracks on the album are
instrumentals, yet enough vocal samples are strewn throughout the release to
piece together a surmised plot. Musically the album is very heavy on live and
sampled percussion mixed together in varying degrees. The mood of the music
ranges from intensely upbeat, to sadly morose and all points in between. Unlike
many albums, this rapid change in mood works very well, because as the
audience, we accept such changes in soundtracks, whereas for normal albums we
think it makes the music sound disparate. What makes this album really amazing
is the incorporation of some very soulful guitar sections that really add a
overall strong emotive content to the music. Gooding is definitely a solo
artist with a wide range of musical talent which he stretches to the extreme on
this stunning release.
