Casual pronouncements are made every so often that the lute songs (the lute is a plucked stringed instrument, an early cousin to the guitar) and madrigals of Elizabethan and Jacobean England were the popular music of their day. And Sting, who alludes to the likes of Vladimir Nabokov in his lyrics, is hardly uneducated in the legacy of fine arts, and he has a certain cerebral, inward sadness that matches the dominant mood of English music around 1600 well enough. Thus some might easily have thought it would be a short leap from Sting's own music to the lute songs of John Dowland (1563-1626). But the leap is anything but short, and Sting gets credit for having thought out fully the problems in making it. It is not just the issue of what pianist Katia Labèque, one of the classical musicians who introduced Sting to Dowland's music, called his "unschooled tenor" -- Dowland's songs are not really difficult. It is the great divide between rock (and other traditions ultimately rooted in Africa) and the European tradition: speaking in generalities, the former prizes "noise" -- sound extraneous to the pitch and to the intended timbre of an instrument or voice -- as a structural element, whereas in the latter it is strenuously eliminated. Sting's voice has plenty of "noise." The listener oriented toward classical music will object to its being there; the rock listener, noting that Sting is singing very quietly, may wonder why there isn't more of it.

Why, then, does this album work well on the whole? The short answer is that Sting took 20 years to think about how to interpret the refined melancholy of Dowland songs like "Come, Heavy Sleep." His booklet notes tell the long story of how he happened to make this album, and it's quite an interesting one, involving a "labyrinth" of encounters with Labèque, with the Bosnian lutenist Edin Karamazov, who performs on this album, with a friend who gave Sting a lute inlaid with a labyrinth design based on a pattern in the floor of Chartres Cathedral in France (Sting later reproduced the maze in his garden at home), and finally with a Swiss voice teacher who schooled him in pitch precision and the occasional octave run. Sting constructs two crossover points between this temporally remote music and his popular audience. First, he intersperses the songs with selections from Dowland's letters. This has surely been done before, at Elizabethan dinners and the like, and for modern listeners it has the beneficial effect of situating Dowland's music at the center of the social and political life of its time. Sting's second crossover point is more radical: he replaces the melody line in a few of Dowland's verses with multitracked harmonies, apparently consisting entirely of his own voice. These sections appear rather randomly, but they do break up the texture in a way that suggests an additional dimension of modern perspective.

Sting passes a key test for vocal music of any kind: he understands and means what he is singing. The real gloomfests among Dowland's songs -- like "Flow My Tears" and the final "In Darkness Let Me Dwell" -- lose none of their power in Sting's performances. And he brings something of his own sense of humor to the lighter ones; a certain smirk in his reading of "Come Again" suggests that he is aware an audience of Dowland's time would have heard the line "To see, to hear, to touch, to kiss, to die with thee again" as a sexual allusion. He sounds like himself, even while purging rock's blues-based treatment of pitch from his singing; he also takes a few turns on the large archlute. And Karamazov proves an ideal collaborator, creating a sharp, edgy tone that stands up to Sting's rough voice. In making Dowland's songs his own, Sting has accomplished something that really has never been done before, and perhaps he'll show some of his own fans that Renaissance music is more than an accompaniment for silly jousting competitions -- it is a labyrinth that leads us toward the roots of our own culture.

Witness the concert double album at the Teatro Alcala de Madrid in 1991, with Rafael Alberti, last representative of the poets of the "Generation 27", born in 1902 and friend of Federico Garcia Lorca. Historic concert for two voices which results in a single poem, unique, indivisible. Paco Ibanez and Rafael Alberti symbolize thousands and thousands of lives, of all generations who have fought, who have given everything, have sacrificed everything for his ideas. They represent all those people. His poetry celebrates its way through the story. A dignity.

Review by Vincent Jeffries

Quote

Following a long-established production pattern, Mike Oldfield assembled some relatively simple pop- and rock-flavored numbers following one long introductory piece on his 1983 Disky release, Crisis. The 20-minute opening title-track is a quintessential Oldfield texture study that consists of sparkling synth washes with edgier material weaving in and out. A fine setup, this track cleanses the aural pallet, preparing the listener nicely for the tunes that follow. Yes fans who can adjust to the sugary highlight "In High Places" will enjoy Jon Anderson's springy vocal work on the track. The energetic guitar romp "Taurus 3" will also appeal to most prog and art rock fans. Those in search of more ethereal Oldfield material should be aware of this record's pop leanings, but open-minded listeners will have a good time exploring Crisis, one of Oldfield's better releases of this type.

Aztec Camera - Love (1987)

Rat — Fri, 13 Apr 2012 02:49:25 GMT

Artis -Aztec Camera
Title -Love
Language - English
Additional info- eac-flac

Quote

Love is the third album by Scottish group Aztec Camera, released in November 1987 on the WEA label.
Love was something of a stylistic departure for the group. Various big-name producers were involved in the recording of the album which, with its radio-friendly hooks and glossy production values was an attempt to break the group in the American market. It failed to do so, but did become Aztec Camera's most commercially successful album in the United Kingdom, where it reached #10 on the albums chart. The single "Somewhere in My Heart" was also the group's most successful, peaking at #3.

Вопрос на засыпку: как вы думаете, какую музыку играет в своем сайд-проекте человек, которого принято считать голосом симфо-блэка, а именно Шаграт из Dimmu Borgir? Даже не пытайтесь угадать, ибо это вовсе не ретро-дэт и не экстремальная электроника, как логично было бы предположить, а гибрид из... Motorhead и новой волны скандинавского глэм-рока в духе Crash Diet и Hardcore Superstar! Послушав интро и первый трек "Serial Killer", я был просто в шоке, потому что меньше всего предполагал, что Шаграту интересно будет играть такую музыку. Конечно, гитары и общее звучание здесь куда тяжелее, чем у Motorhead и тем более Hardcore Superstar, но ведь по сути это глэм – хулиганская музыка пропитых парней с текстами про крутых девчонок, проблемы с законом и неприятие в обществе. В течение еще пары песен я продолжал недоумевать, однако потом осознал простую вещь – мне нравится эта музыка! Пускай слышать такое от Шаграта в высшей степени неожиданно, но ведь он сочинил для "Doomsday Rock’N’Roll" целую охапку отличнейших драйвовых песен – "Trouble With The Law", "Hate", "Here Comes Another One", "We Want More" и т.д. Причем здесь есть не только энергетика, но и мелодика, чего порой так недостает тем же Motorhead, а низкий хриплый вокал Эдди Гуза из Carburetors (Шаграт здесь не поет, а только играет на гитаре) может посоперничать по агрессивности и эмоциональности с большинством схожих по тембру глэмовых вокалистов как старой, так и новой школы. Возможно, на титул "Открытие года" Chrome Division не тянут – все-таки в этой музыке практически все возможное было сыграно задолго до них, но на звание "Сюрприз года" они пока что главные претенденты.

Шаграт (Dimmu Borgir) презентует свой проект, название альбома которого говорит само за себя: рок-н-ролл как он есть. В этом жанре все уже давно сказано, и Chrome Division ничего нового придумать и не пытаются: традиционный набор "пиво, девки, рок-н-ролл", прокуренный голос и атмосфера угара и беззаботности - вот что вы получите от этих утянутых в джинсы и кожаные куртки молодчиков.

Aztec Camera - Frestonia (1995)

Rat — Fri, 30 Mar 2012 04:49:22 GMT

Album: Aztec Camera
Artist: Frestonia
Source: WEA
Realease: 1995
Genre: New romantics
Quality: eac-ape-covers

Quote

Roddy Frame's last album for the Warner/Reprise stable after 12 years with the company finds him continuing in the low-key vein of 1993's Dreamland. In many ways, Frestonia is akin to contemporaneous albums by Paddy McAloon; like Frame, McAloon had long since given up any idea that his band, Prefab Sprout, was anything but a vehicle for his ideas, and after a third-album stumble (1988's From Langley Park to Memphis, not quite as dire as Aztec Camera's wretched 1987 album, Love), both singer/songwriters had contented themselves with making small records seemingly intended only to please themselves. Frestonia -- with its soft pop exteriors, occasional jazzy flourishes, and mellow acoustic vibe -- is probably the prettiest album of Frame's career. If anything, though, its only virtue is its prettiness, the way that Frame's unfailingly melodic songs slide peacefully out of the speakers, unhampered by any rough edges in the simple, low-key arrangements. The problem is that other than the two bookend tracks, "Sun" and "Sunset," there's little memorable here either lyrically or musically. For an artist whose early work was so substantial, Frestonia is something of a disappointment, albeit an unfailingly nice one. ~ Stewart Mason, All Music Guide

Big Audio Dynamite - Planet BAD-Greatest Hits(1995)

Rat — Fri, 30 Mar 2012 03:50:51 GMT

Artist: Big Audio Dynamite
Album: Planet BAD-Greatest Hits
Released: 1995
Source: Sony music
Genre: Alternative/punk rock
Format: eac.ape.covers

Quote

Culling together tracks chosen from a decade's (and seven albums') worth of material, Planet BAD serves as a focused, well-chosen compilation of Mick Jones' post-Clash outfit. Although neither as critically or commercially successful as the Clash, Big Audio Dynamite's blend of rock and dance music, with a generous dose of samples, was a fixture on college radio in the mid- to late '80s with tracks like "E=MC2," "The Bottom Line," and "C'mon Every Beatbox" (all included here). The band even managed to make a foray onto the U.S. Top 40 charts in 1992 with the infectious "Rush." With his place already secure in rock annals, Jones' work with BAD was much more lighthearted, but it cannily anticipated the influence electronics and technology would have on music. Despite the dated feel of some of Planet BAD, it's also undeniable that the band was a more interesting venture than it was sometimes given credit.
