24 Tales is an album by guitarist Alex Machacek which is based on a 51-minute drum solo by German drummer Marco Minnemann. It was released in 2010 by Abstract Logix. Machacek's wife Sumitra Nanjundan provides vocals on one track, and trombonist Martin Ptak appears on three tracks.[1][2][3]
In 2006, Minnemann, who was later Machacek's bandmate in Eddie Jobson's UKZ band, recorded a 51-minute drum solo and shared it with other musicians, requesting that they use it as the basis for new compositions and recordings that would collectively come to be known as the Normalizer 2 project. The resulting albums included Mike Keneally's Evidence of Humanity,[4] Trey Gunn's Modulator,[5] and 24 Tales.[6]
Machacek chose to divide Minnemann's recording into 24 sections which are heard without pause on the CD, and for which he composed music in a wide variety of styles, as reflected in the track titles. He later commented: "There are some improvised solos and some comping but the majority of this album is composed. And that was done intentionally – I always thought of this record as a compositional project."[7]
