Album Review: Free Time - In Search Of

StarStarStarStarHalf Star

"Nania's search continues, but the songs here will last the test of time."

Free Time is a globetrotting endeavour from Dion Nania (Panel Of Judges), whose second album is a personal, lyrically incisive chronicle of the highs and lows of whimsical existentialism.

Peter Green heralds the weary cheering of a capricious dreamer; All Four Seasons proffers droll observations of the necessities of life's stations. Things break out of sync for penultimate track 5th Floor, a ten-minute jam that slyly jabs at the disparaging banality of going with the crowd. Ideas about love, poverty, listlessness and the moon are all explored. Nania's search continues, but the songs here will last the test of time.
