Heartscore is the virtual band/studio project of Dirk Radloff, A platform for his musical vision. Anytime Dirk is doing other things the sleeping, working or hanging around in local clubs he’s torturing his violin, guitar and piano to compose some songs; trying to be innovative. With influences from Classical composers to 80’s metal he tries to create his own style. “Many Directions” is Dirk’s Third self produced album on a multi-track recorder. A bit back to basics approach… Although he used the best tools to get most out of his new compositions his approach has a little bit changed. This release is a more commercial one and more straight forward than his earlier work with more stylistic changes. Also funkier and a bit jazzy from time to time but still with some progression in it, whereby I noticed some Ray Davies (Kinks) influences. For the lyrics Radloff used some American poets but the music is composed by him. “Many Directions” is an album ideal to play in the background at home or in Bars, just to break the silence. I would say it’s more ‘musac’ than music and if you listen to it very well maybe you get bored after a while.
