Magical Sound Shower

Copied directly from Bandcamp:

Having laid dormant for seven years, Grandmaster Gareth summoned up his musical powers and created 'Magical Sound Shower', his third album. Conceived as a science fiction ballet, though unperformed as of writing, it tells the story of Garzuvius of the Eleventh Dimension visiting Earth to resurrect Music after she has been murdered by The Nobelisk. It got a very good review in The Wire. Released by GM Sounds.

"The final sound was an explosion. Music on Planet Earth was dead. But with her death came the start of another cycle, an opportunity to turn all that had come before into something new. Music could be reconstructed. Now was The Age of The Reconstructors.
In the years prior to the explosion, Earth had suffered a Bland Age. Melody, harmony and rhythm had been genericized, leading to an inability to feel or express non-verbal emotion. Technology had improved beyond recognition, but was used as a tool of evil, further enhancing The Ear Impairers grand vision. This abuse could not be allowed to continue.
I am one of the Ear Witnesses. Though I’m unable to say if he really came from the Eleventh Dimension, it is certainly true that Garzuvius did perform the miracles that now are legend. He appeared through the storm of static that occurred immediately after the blast. The bland were leading the bland away to makeshift soundproof bunkers. White noise engulfed the sound waves.
It was then I saw him. Garzuvius dressed in black and carried a duck.
He raised his hand, and the Magical Sound Shower began."
