Kate Bush – Aerial (2005)

July 6, 2008 · Leave a Comment


Fierce Kate Bush fans who are expecting revelation in Aerial, her first new work since The Red Shoes in 1993, will no doubt scour lyrics, instrumental trills, and interludes until they find them. For everyone else, those who purchased much of Bush’s earlier catalog because of its depth, quality, and vision, Aerial will sound exactly like what it is, a new Kate Bush record: full of her obsessions, lushly romantic paeans to things mundane and cosmic, and her ability to add dimension and transfer emotion though song. The set is spread over two discs. The first, A Sea of Honey, is a collection of songs, arranged for everything from full-on rock band to solo piano. The second, A Sky of Honey, is a conceptual suite. It was produced by Bush with engineering and mixing by longtime collaborator Del Palmer. (allmusic.com)

The Sabres of paradise – Smokebelch II (mp3)

July 1, 2008 · Leave a Comment

The Sabres of Paradise was an experimental group from the UK, active in the early 1990s, whose roots were in the acid house scene but later produced more dub-inspired work. Their albums Haunted Dancehall and Sabresonic II contained no vocals whatsoever. Andrew Weatherall formed the group and was joined by engineers Jagz Kooner and Gary Burns, and were responsible for the legendary Sabresonic warehouse raves. The group dissolved in 1995, but continued their music careers with Weatherall in Two Lone Swordsmen, and Kooner and Burns in The Aloof. (Wikipedia)

Peter Gabriel – Big Blue Ball (2008)

July 1, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Big Blue Ball is an album by multiple artists which grew from “recording weeks” at Peter Gabriel’s Real World Studios in the early 1990s.

In production for more than 15 years, “Big Blue Ball” is a project featuring several artists from all around the world working together. According to Gabriel, the initial recording was finished in three years during the early ’90s, but “the tapes were left in a mess and it’s taken this long to sort out.” Producer Stephen Hague was finally called in to sort out the project.

Guests on the album include Sinéad O’Connor, Karl Wallinger (of World Party), Natacha Atlas, and Papa Wemba. Gabriel will take the lead vocals on several tracks on the album. A mix of western, African, and Asian musicians are also included.[1]

Big Blue Ball will be launched in America thanks to a venture-capital trust initiative. Bosses at London-based firm Ingenious have raised more than $4 million (GBP 2 million) to help promote his latest release in the US. The venture capitalists, Gabriel, and his Real World Limited partners, have created a new joint venture company, High Level Recordings Limited, to oversee the release of the album. The new album deal covers the North America territory, where Gabriel is currently out of contract. The worldwide distribution of the album will be dealt by EMI.[2][3]

The first track released from the project was Whole Thing, included on the soundtrack album for the TV series Long Way Down, although a version of Burn You Up, Burn You Down was included on Gabriel’s 2003 compilation album Hit with a radio edit released as a single.

A limited edition of 1000 copies of the album will be released on blue vinyl, from Ryko Distribution.[4]

iTunes released the album for download on June 23, 2008.

Tracks:
01. Whole Thing (featuring Francis Bebey, Alex Faku, Tim Finn, Peter Gabriel, Karl Wallinger, Andy White)
02. Habibe (featuring Natacha Atlas, Hossam Ramzy, Neil Sparkes)
03. Shadow (featuring Juan Cañizares, Papa Wemba)
