You would think that we would have more of a bustling scene in Toronto with the amazing amount of talent that we produce. Arc are another local band that is breaking barriers in conventional music. And it has become a welcome addition to my cd collection.

Arc are a improvisational experimental/ambient band....that is quite a mouthful. The complexness of the genre suits the band though as their music can conjure up complex imagery through their art. What Arc produces is the ultimate music for others artist to derive inspiration from, whether they be painters, sculptors, musicians, etc...

Personally though since most of my life is spent sitting in front of a computer writing or on the phone hounding record label execs...I get a clearly different effect from it. Arc's self-titled debut has actually become a standard in my cd player as when I need to get away from everything I can back off for a few minutes and the music relaxes me with it's obviously tribal influenced style. That is one of the best characteristics of Arc and similar artists...everyone responds to the music differently.

Suggestion: Since this is an improvisational band...you should strive to see them live. As every show is guaranteed to be a total new experience for everyone involved. I highly recommend it
