Imagine being propelled into the forces of the unknown only to be reeled back in by a grandiose epiphany. That’s the feeling Electric Beethoven’s “The Ninth” evokes out of its listeners. While fleshing out the arrangement in Todd Stoops’ basement, Reed Mathis observed that Beethoven’s iconic ninth symphony actually has three melodies that occur simultaneously. Stoops suggested that they should introduce the lesser known motifs first and then drop the famous “Ode to Joy” melody last with the other two melodies steeping beneath it. That’s the “a-ha” moment where the audience unites—whether it’s the familiarity of playing the melody in grade school, or nostalgia for a summer concert series or cinematic work, the vast majority of the world unities in the solidarity of “Ode to Joy” awakening memories. Taking it a step further, the lyrics are based on a Schiller poem that Beethoven enjoyed. After he re-worded it, its message became one of universal oneness where all races, religions, genders, and creeds are equal. This gem of a history lesson is restored with Mathis’ signature jazz-funk that embodies the pocket of The Meters with the harmonic approaches of Aphex Twin.

The Ninth

Color Red Music

Electric Beethoven - 'The Ninth' - Color Red Music

“Moonlight Sonata” puts Reed Mathis and company’s dark and dreamy imprint on the classic Beethoven sonata. This version is dominated by Clay Welch’s slide guitar and Josh Raymer’s laid-back groove on top of a near-reggae skank throughout—it’s the kind of track you can toss on at 4 a.m. and enjoy the chilled out ride for hours on end. 

Mathis notes that “Moonlight Sonata” is one of the most iconic chord progressions in history. It was the direct inspiration behind classics ranging from The Beatles’ “Because” to Radiohead’s “Exit Music For a Film” and countless other haunting melodies in modern times. The fourth track on the Color Red series will be followed up by additional releases and will culminate in a full-length album to be released later in 2019.

The Seventh

Electric Beethoven - The Seventh - Color Red Music

"Rust" finds Manycolors exploring new sonic spaces. The initial groove is a lush and spacious lofi soundscape that surrounds the listener with layers of subtle textures and heavy backbeat. The song builds to culmination with a psychedelic bridge featuring heavy synth pads and swirling guitar interplay in both speakers. An analog rewind drops in to a classic lofi outro with piano improvisation over grooving bass and drums.
