Chroma Key es el nombre bajo el cual graba el ex-tecladista de Dream Theater, Kevin Moore. A pesar de ser primariamente un proyecto solista de Kevin Moore, varios músicos han grabado como parte de Chroma Key con Kevin, como el bajista Joey Vera, el baterista Mark Zonder, y el guitarrista Jason Anderson. La música de Moore es una mezcla de rock progresivo y electrónica e incluso algo de ambient, con sonidos de teclado detallados y un cierto humor o ambiente oscuro.

A la fecha ha habido tres lanzamientos de Chroma Key:

Dead Air For Radios
You Go Now
Graveyard Mountain Home

Todos los lanzamientos de Chroma Key han sido producidos y grabados por el propio Moore en sus estudios en casa, cuyas localizaciones cambian de álbum en álbum.

Después de dejar Dream Theater en 1994, Moore se mudó a Santa Fe, New Mexico, donde buena parte de su primer álbum, Dead Air for Radios de 1998 fue escrito. You Go Now del 2000 fue escrito y grabado en Los Angeles, justo antes de otra mudanza a Costa Rica, donde Moore vivió por tres años. En Costa Rica comenzó a escribir y grabar ideas para un nuevo álbum de Chroma Key, produciendo dutante el día un programa de radio musical activista bi-semanal para Radio for Peace International, una estación de onda corta situada en San José. Moore lanzó una compilación del programa - una mezcla de músca original y grabaciones de palabras habladas políticamente volátiles - como un álbum descargable en www.chromakey.com - como The Memory Hole 1. Graveyard Mountain Home fue grabado en Estambul, Turquía.

Why not? "Progressive" doesn't mean instrumental talent, solos, and poor songwriting. This is different, and pushing boundaries, so I think it's much more progressive than Dream Theater. Not to many albums like Graveyard Mountain Home, Black Clouds and Silver Linings had been done 100 times before

Hey, @Tibberclaw, about the "He needs to get together with Steven Wilson and do some OSI-like blending of styles", yeah sure, or maybe he just needs to do his own thing here.... First time i am listening to Chroma Key (since i recently became a big OSI fan) and first impressions are really good!

If someone gave me all 3 CK albums and made me guess the order they were released, I'd probably think it was the reverse of their actual order. Really like "Undertow", "Get Back In The Car", "Nice To Know", and "When You Drive" Can't believe this guy came from Dream Theater. I'm glad he left though. He needs to get together with Steven Wilson and do some OSI-like blending of styles.

@ betolol No questions asked he is much more creative and talented. Go listen to Space-Dye Vest, then listen to something Rudess wrote.

http://heavymetal.about.com/od/interviews/a/osiinterview.htm Q: "What is the status of [Chroma Key] at this time?" A: "I’m looking at it. I’m not sure. We just finished this project and usually I take a little break from writing. So as soon as I start writing, I’ll see what direction I go in."

Just because someone is doing something "new" with their sound doesn't make it progressive and progressive doesn't always have to be incredibly technical, either. I'd say this sounds like Electronica with a more atmospheric approach. So many people have this tagged as prog because Moore came from a Progressive metal band, so everyone automatically assumes that it's a prog project.

CK seems to be a cross between electronica and ambient

In most of the CK reviews I've read the reviewer has had difficulty classifying the music. I guess it's progressive in the sense it's doing something new and different, not because it's incredibly technical. But to give CK the same label as, say, Genesis, seems wrong. At the end of the day, the label we give the music doesn't really matter.

There's some really good stuff here, but I really didn't like Graveyard Mountain Home. I'm looking forward to the new OSI album.
