THE PROJEKCTS features a series of sub-groups of King Crimson's 6 members. King Crimson: Adrian Belew, Bill Bruford, Robert Fripp, Trey Gunn, Tony Levin, Pat Mastelotto. What is always so intriguing about King Crimson is how the group's personnel can continuously evolve while maintaining a constant musical vision. Nowhere is this better illustrated than in the massive 4-disc set THE PROJEKCTS, which chronicles the splintering of Crimson's "double trio" of the '90s into four separate units, or "projekcts," each lead by the incomparable Robert Fripp. Each of the four discs in the set captures one of the projekcts in a live performance somewhere between 1997 and 1999. Projekct One, with Fripp, Trey Gunn, Tony Levin, and Bill Bruford, proves to be the most rambunctious of the four, providing dynamic interaction and stunning displays of energy on disc one. Projekct Two, featuring Fripp, Gunn, and Adrian Belew (on electronic drums!), is full of distortion and digital samples the likes of which will singe your synapses. Projekct Three is similar, this time with Pat Mastelotto on drums, but with a definite world music influence not heard on the other discs. Lastly, Projekct Four, the same lineup as Projekct One but with Mastelotto, is the most mesmerizing of the four, providing a magical listening experience for any who wish to make the incredible journey.
