Latest Music Reviews:
Christopher Lee Reads Edgar Allan Poe - Tales Of Horror - pastysurprise
Christopher Lee is known for his gentlemanly depictions of the macabre in the movies. On this tape, his skilled acumen as a speaker makes one wonder why some of his movie characterizations were quiet types. The unerring and evocative reading herein is in my opinion better drama than that of the screen adaptation(s) of The Pit and The Pendulum. Here, Lee takes us inside the character of Poes unsettling characters for a first hand personal experience of the tortures and woes reported. In such a first person account of the stories of Poe, one can immediately regard Lees skill as a storyteller as fantastic. Many elements of suspense, trepidation, genius, and personality are inflected well into Poes protagonists by Lee. These recordings are well edited and produced, making these stories the perfect companion for a dark night. |
Kananga - Oh Yeah - CRUSHTRASH
Nice chunky housey reworks of the Yello classic. Uses enough samples from the original to please their fans, but adds different (and moody, on the original A side) instrumentation to compliment. Great sound quality too. IMO more successful as a remix than the patchy 2006 official Oh Yeah Oh Six releases - nice one Kananga! |
Massive Attack - Splitting The Atom EP - dierubix
Massive Attack is back with a dream line up the likes of which Them Crooked Vultures could only hope to aspire, A whos who of contemporary musicians, and several of my personal favorites.
Track one with Damon Albarn (blur, gorrillas) Track two with Tunde Adebimpe of Tv On The Radio fame. Track three remixed by non-other-than The Subliminal Kid, no longer a kid, but very much a stalwart of the downtempo scene, and Track five, unbelievably, with the marvelous Martina Topley-Bird (the female voice from most of Trickys notable work, with an awesome solo album of her own.)
For those of us who consider the acts 1998 mercury prize nominated, #1, platinum selling album the height of Massive Attacks artistry, this four Track EP is their most satisfying release to date. It is the slow and simple effectiveness that hypnotized us in 1998, the laid back, low mixed vocals that balance music and prose is such tandem that every note, every word, hangs on the ear, dripping slowly into the brain, with bass and polyrhythms so delicately layered it would take a microscope to discern their individuality. In my educated opinion: Splitting the Atom sits proudly next to Mezzanine as Massive attacks finest releases. As To the lucky 999 fans that share with me the fine distinction of owning the rare and wonderful physical release: kudos. Vinyl well bought. |
I:Gor - Untitled - somebedroomdj
Not much to get terribly excited about this time from I:gor and, though I hate to say it, it seems like his productions have been getting a little lazy as of late. A prime example of this is the cheesy sample in the opening track repeatedly declaring "I chose the underground." Well, yes, thats kind of a given and the sort of thing that eventually made Rotterdam gabber a laughing stock (Neophyte, etc.). This shit pounds, for sure, but there is a definite formula emerging here and the tracks sound very similar to each other with not much changed but the voice samples. If I had to pick one track that Id probably play, it would be "God Left This Place" because it has more of a fist pumping peak time vibe to it. More aggression, I guess, which is ultimately what this style of music aims for.
The verdict? Definitely not essential and, to me, a real letdown after the first Nekrolog1k release, which was significantly better. |
Cagedbaby - cagedbimbini
One of the most underated artists there is. One hell of a DJ. |
Hellfish / Bryan Fury / DJ Hidden / Somatic Responses - The Unsensored E.P. - somebedroomdj
One look at the artists featured on this EP will tell you that this is a rather ambitious undertaking. Unfortunately, the A side is not something I can recommend. Its pretty much standard gabber, with the Hellfish track repeatedly dropping a sample of some guy saying something about pissing on you. The Bryan Fury track is a little better, with a swatch of disjointed melody and slightly more imaginative drum programming, but still, in my opinion, a dud.
But the B side is where things really pick up. The DJ Hidden track is very heavy and on the more fractured side of things. Dark, creepy samples, good progression and, overall, yet another mark in the win column for him.
The Somatics track is the black sheep on this record. When played on 33, as I believe is intended, it is like some kind of dark safari through a landscape of twisted electronics. Dubstep tempo, but its surely not dubstep. Hard to explain, really, but suffice to say that its Somatics in experimental mode, which is generally a very good thing.
Overall, the Hidden and Somatics cuts make this worth purchasing and the gabber stuff is pretty much in the same vein as the stuff that turned me off from Deathchant about five years ago. |
Outside Agency, The - Reality Collapse / Hell's Basement - somebedroomdj
"Reality Collapse" is THE track of 2009, full stop. This is DJ Hidden at his very best, in my opinion, as he combines gabber, hardcore drum and bass and, last but not least, a sublime acid line. Mark N has been caning this one for a long time now and the first time I heard it was when I saw him play. In a set full of amazing moments, the breakdown in this track flat out sucked the air out of the room with the creeping acid line and then the drop blew everything to pieces. Maybe it was the time and place (a sweaty room packed full of heads raised on Midwest acid), but this track has burned itself a cozy little place in my brain. Over a year later and some kind of flashbulb memory takes me back to that room every time I hear it. But my personal experience aside, this track is the real deal and needs to be in your crate. In a word, amazing. |
Djavan - Bird Of Paradise - food2prep
Talented singer/songwriter from Brazil. This release is one of the best in my collection. Good songwriting, great rhythms, original. Not the usual bossanova Jobim stuff.
The album start with "Carnaval In Rio", a beautiful melody with an unusual beat combined together with beautiful strings textures and powerful vocals from Djavan. This song is already transported you in a different world. Djavan world.
We continue with "Bird Of Paradise" that evokes a far away island. Great songwriting again and beatiful use of DX7 all around with some soft percussions. The most romantic song on this album.
With "Apple (Maçã)" we return to Rio. A beautiful Bossa Nova/Samba style song but more original, because of his use of synth and rhyhm. Great chord changes and beautiful vocals. Just amazing and we are only at number 3 song of the album.
"Rio" is a rock jazz blend. Fusion mix very well with Rock.
Now Im thinking that this album has been thought very well.
"Madness" continue where "Bird Of Paradise" left off. A ballad with a beautiful melody and the appearance of a guitar and string and soft synth sounds. I need to order a Capirinha.
It seems like that every song on this album is great.
"Stephens Kingdom" again so original. A song about Africa and war. A soldier story described by Djavan in Rock/Fusion style.
An acoustic track "Bouquet" Vocals, Piano, Guitar. A beautiful Brazilian lullaby where strings become dominant. Great lyrics on this one too.
"Take Me" with a almost Disco Beat evokes me of Shakatak best moments. Amazing Djavan.
"I Will, I Wont" with a reggae feel. Saudade song. Beautiful textures. Sad lyrics but beautiful.
"Miss Susanna" ends this amazing CD in a sweet way. The changes of chords again wonderful. Djavan lyrics and voice give a sense to the whole CD. A nice way to say goodbye.
This CD will itransport you in the Djavan world. An amazing beautiful world where the music is well thought and excuted, not just for commercial reason.
If anyone wants to get to know Djavan and his music this is the album to get.
Five star

DJ Hidden / Throttler - Grim Noire / Digital ID - somebedroomdj
Going into this one, I expected the DJ Hidden track to be the standout, as many of the Throttlers tracks that Ive heard have been a little on the repetitious side and often have an odd bit of off timing in the track that makes them awkward on the DJ side of things.
But I think the Hidden cut falls flat here. The production quality is excellent as always, but this one just sounds like a "Later After" outtake. Too slow for my tastes and, though fairly pounding in some spots, it just doesnt hit the spot that many of his other productions hit for me. Might be alright as a transitional bit in the mix, but just too samey if you play it too long. But to be fair, with as many tracks as he gets pressed, you cant expect all of them to be bangers, nor should they be.
Now the Throttler cut on the other hand is a slick, pounding, morphing track that kind of epitomizes this hardcore drum and bass thing thats been going on for a while now. Deep bass, stuttered repetition and slowly building into gabber flourishes. Dancefloor damage. Ill definitely be playing this one quite a bit. |
Pendulum (3) - In Silico - elspectro29
Pendulum have a unique sound that people either love or hate, judging by the reviews of this album. Count me in as one of the people who love it. I find most of the D scene to be boring, and I mean really boring. Just the same minimal crap over and over, every single release. So for me, this was a refreshing change. So what if its not the norm. Id rather be different. |
