A whirlwind of emotion under subdued vocals, producer/songwriter Matthew Curtis, under the alias The Dronings, created a winding road of musical twists and turns with his debut album "For Torching", In The Air Music's first full-length release. The album starts off simple; catchy, and often childlike, vocals over subtle layers of folk instrumentation. The first three songs set a mood that carries throughout the majority of the album and seem to set a precedent for the instrumentation as well, but as "Quarter Past Three" seamlessly transforms into "Be Free" the album makes it's first hint at an upcoming stream of oddball arrangement and non-traditional instrument choice. In fact the next three songs almost abandon acoustic guitar altogether as the tables turn towards over effected electrics, analog drum machines and rhythm boxes, and 60's style modular synthesis. After six songs told from Matthew's perspective, the album takes another drastic change when taken over by an anonymous storyteller that provides a fresh angle to the human condition and allows Matthew to explore the wild frontier of soundscape. The story ends in an all out explosion when the singer regains the reins for the album's conclusion.
