Scored entirely by Battles' multi-instrumentalist Tyondai Braxton and recorded with the Wordless Music Orchestra in New York, Braxton's second solo album Central Market has left critics, fans and musicians alike, crumbling in awe at the rich complexity, delicate beauty and forward thinking magic combined within the record. With Björk describing the release as "a mashup of 20th century music that has bravely taken an extra step," and Fourtet praising Braxton for his creation of "a total mind bender. Epic cinematic music that is packed with amazing sounds and ideas," Central Market has had a profound impact upon all who have heard it.
Though widespread commercial success and recognition came through Battles and their critically acclaimed 2007 debut Mirrored, Tyondai Braxton has been actively producing and performing music since the mid 90's. I Like Music caught up with Tyondai to chat about the development of his style and ideas, his approach to Central Market, meeting Brian Eno and music he's recently been obsessing over.
"I Like Music because… It is exciting. That pretty much sums it all up."TYONDAI BRAXTON, BATTLES
ILM: Central Market, what a project! You're known for your incredibly detailed music and compositions, how did you arrive at this idea?
