Raven Songs 101

Overview

Raven Songs 101 --- 2003

This was first released independently on Kevin Max and Adrian Belew's websites. It was later re-released digitally by Kevin Max's label, dPulse Recordings, in 2009. "The true power of poetry lies in the subconscience [sic] and music only deepens that effect. The absence of spoken word as an art form in the market today is a testament to how our culture is deprived of art and creative property. I have been trying to heighten the awareness of poetry in music for years now and am constantly rewarded every time I put my hand to it. With the opportunity of working with my friend, Adrian Belew, I feel that I have again tapped into an art form that should be revived and set free again. Adrian's music to me is like poetry without confines, space or genre, it was a great privilege to combine and create for you." - Kevin Max
