"Time to Think" by Earnest Woodall Sound Samples Ariadne - Bohemia Lies by the Sea - Peculiar Attributes - Spilling of Salt Music that was composed on "Time to Think" was originally released on "Pictures in Mind" - "13" - "Unusual Charteristics" - Strike, Light, Puff. REVIEWS "The music contained on Time to Think is pensive & moody therein creating tension. Nearly all of the timbres used throughout the CD replicate, in one way or another, familiar acoustic instruments–strings, winds, piano, percussion, etc. Woodall coaxes a lot of emotion into the recording through his assured, lyrical writing. Also to Woodall’s credit, he does take advantage of the impossible precision only achievable with electronically music. Reviewed by NEW MUSIC BOX Issue 46 - Vol.4, No.10 February 2003" "EARNEST WOODALL "Time To Think" Wow, there are a ton of tracks on this album! Twenty in all - a great composition of all his previously released materials (from an assortment of albums) and perhaps even some new tracks. For those that enjoy classical music and music with a lot of movement you should pick this album up, for it has a lot of powerful compositions within it. The first track slightly reminds me of the "Sugar Plum Fairies" (I have no idea who originally composed/wrote that song). Then from there you're greeted with sounds of Celtic influences, Classical influences, Traditional influences, marching influences, Tribal influences and perhaps even a bit of Folk and Ambient influences. There's a wide diversity here, all very enjoyable and well composed. Its an attractive album for someone who enjoys dynamics and power!

"Pictures in Mind" by Earnest Woodall Sound Samples Ariadne - Bohemia Lies by the Sea - 128 Details from a Picture - Autumn Rhythm Music composed on this CD was inspired by a week in July 2001 when I found myself unexpectedly having extra time to visit local Museums in New York City & Long Island, NY. Deeply inspired by some of the greatest artwork in the world, I proceeded to compose & record my experience in the following month of August 2001. Inspired by the art work of such artist as Anselm Kiefer, Giorgio de Chirico, Max Ernst, Roy Lichtenstein, Gerhard Richter, Arthur G. Dove, Stuart Davis, Jackson Pollock, Georges-Pierre Seurat, Joe Constantino, Balthus. REVIEWS "Review From GODs OF MUSIC www.godsofmusic.com - Earnest Woodall is a contemporary classical composer who adds quite a modernist touch to his work with electronic effects and sound. This blend is not quite unique, but it is nice when wielded by someone well-skilled in the craft (like Mannheim Steamroller). Upon listening to this piece, inspired by a Giorgio de Chirico artwork also titled Ariadne, I can say that Mr.Woodall can blend each of these styles beautifully while being proficient in both. "Review From Creations Magazine - The compositions on this CD were inspired by a week in July 2001 when Earnest Woodall visited museums in NYC and LI. The results are a diverse and breezy bunch of tunes which really make the artwork come alive. If only Woodall’s tunes could be played side-by-side with the works of art– the paintings would jump out of their frames and start dancing to the music!"

"13" by Earnest Woodall Sound Samples Take a little minimalism, a pinch of jazz, a splash of academicism, a tablespoon of traditional avant garde, and a strong feel for the post modern concept, what do you get? "13" by Earnest Woodall that is wrapped up in a crystal clear production that brings out the best in the inherent disjointed melodies and thick soundscape that he is so well known for. The initial reaction is to see it as a kind of musical version of the "Blairwitch Project", with something sinister always lurking beneath the surface. Sonic collages and musical explorations of rhythm, frequency, spectra & harmonic relationships that will give you a glimpse into the creators dark side. An intricate web of industrial sounds using a nice collection of instruments and sampled sounds. Reviewed by The New Music Journal. REVIEWS "13" is a compellingly dark and fascinating work of art produced. Woodall skillfully blends such seemingly disparate elements as percussive/electronic loops, Schulze-like ambience, minimalism, jazz piano, chamber music, and a highly developed and unique melodic sense. Prog fans who like groups such as Univers Zero, Art Zoyd, and especially Daniel Denis' solo works should get this album. Every song on this CD is a success, a masterfully focused glimpse into the frightening unknown. Swamps are painted with low wind instruments, jungles with loops of mallet percussion, funerals with flute and synthesizer. The vast quantities of instrumental textures (all handled by Woodall himself, although he probably sampled some) are put to purely perfect use. The compositions themselves are well-developed and delightfully unpredictable. Woodall has had experience with film music, which somehow makes sense although his music works extremely well removed from any visual or narrative context (much like innovative film composer Bernard Herrman). Woodall is not needlessly dramatic, and can be quite detached during one part of a piece and then hit you with something heart-rendingly beautiful soon after. The most disappointing thing about this album is that turning it over reveals a green-tinted CD-R bottom. This is a composer of uncommon caliber, and he deserves better. Highly recommended. Reviewed by E.E.R Eclectic Earwig Reviews" "For fans of the avant garde out there, you're well aware that this genre isn't too popular. With the music bordering on a fence with insanity on one side, and genius on the other, it's sometimes difficult to tell exactly which way the songs or pieces are leaning. I do know that with junior balling his brains out upstairs, the 13 disc calmed me down quicker than liquid valium. This effect, of course, indicates that there is something there in the, uh, music (at least for me). Who knows, maybe Ernest has insight on how neurons react, and what effect tonality has on the human brain. In any event, it's an interesting listen, and revisiting the disc yields more surprises. My only question is, how does he go about naming these "tunes?" For example, "Spilling of Salt," which is devoid of lyrics, and a 2:25 romp with an electric piano.... Pick it up yourself and find out.
