Album: Fredo Viola, The Turn (Because Music)
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.An artist for our times, Fredo Viola's "cluster" videos went viral and led to an as-yet-unreleased collaboration with Massive Attack.
But can Viola's blending of "21st-century electronics and the human voice" fare so well when separated from the "multimedia visuals"? (And will it ever be possible to talk about his music without all that quote-unquote finger flexing?) Such questions are largely answered by The Turn, an often glorious album that imagines the Beach Boys as Gregorian chanters with Brian Eno at the helm.
