| | Zero One CD Zero One Discography of CDs
Zero One combines classic ambient atmospheres with subtle beats. On one hand, this self-titled release recalls the age of vintage electronica, with its seeming allusions to Tangerine Dream ("Waken") and Kraftwerk ("Trust"). But Zero One brings these influences up to date with contemporary production flourishes and extended trance-inducing passages.
One of Zero One's calling cards is the repeated vocal sample, such as on "Hell Is Cooling Off." These samples act as markers as listeners drift through the gauzy world of wide synth washes, squiggly sound effects, and embryonic rhythm pulses. At times the album seems to be free-falling through space, at others moving steadily through the belly of a friendly, over-active computer, but even in these strange territories, ZERO ONE is a surprisingly inviting listen.

Purchase Zero One CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Led Zeppelin II CD (1969) Remastered
Zero One album
$13.25 From the first grinding notes of the famous vamp that introduces "Whole Lotta Love," LED ZEPPELIN II announces for all to hear that they are the definitive hard rock band of their generation. But before the listener can even settle into the groove, things takes a hard left turn into a spacey new rhythm, exotically flavored by Page's droning feedback and innovative use of a violin bow. By tune's end, Zeppelin has repeatedly toyed with the listener's expectations.
This subversive quality ...

| | Celestial Navigations CD (1986)
Zero One CD music
$13.95 What is Celestial Navigations?There is only one way to explain "Celestial Navigations". It is an experience... combination of eloquent, unforgettable narrative accompanied by haunting, stirring music.It is the result of a collaboration between accomplished stage and screen actor Geoffrey Lewis and electronic musicians Geoff Levin. It transcends all known categories. It has no limitations when it comes to age groups or backgrounds.The History Of Celestial NavigationsIt was 1969, Geoffrey Lewis and Geoff Levin met at Celebrity Centre™, a performing art center in Los Angeles run by the Church of Scientology. At that time they were both involved at the center doing stage productions, Lewis acting and Levin producing and playing guitar for various performers there.Lewis was in the first play produced at the centre's theater. One evening during open mic Levin saw Lewis perform one of his original stories. Levin made a decision then and there that he had to perform with Lewis. In early spring of 1970 Levin and Lewis formed a group with singer/songwriter Jack Skinner, (guitar and bass). They used the Celebrity Centre theater as a showcase to form the "Great American Entertainment Show".In that show Lewis sang songs and played drums, did a few comedy skits and more importantly, told a few stories. In effect, they had formed the first version of Celestial Navigations. Up to this point, there was no music accompanying the stories. The group did several performances at Celebrity Centre. They were humorously billed as "Jack Armstrong, Mom and apple pie". By the summer of 1970 Jack decided he wanted to pursue other interests. Around the same time Levin was working with David Campbell a classical violist/violinist. The duo was playing Bluegrass music busking for the movie lines of Westwood. David joined the group replacing Jack. Keyboardist Bud Pomeroy joined the group adding electric piano and accordion to the sound.Now the group consisted of Geoffrey on drums, David on violin/viola, Geoff on guitars, and Bud on keyboards.By this point, Geoffrey Lewis and Geoff Levin had written about 35 or 40 songs. They were performing songs and stories and some instrumentals as well. This was also the period where underscoring the stories was started. One of the earliest stories was called "Tony" about a little lion cub at the zoo.Jack rejoined the group and with five people they played the Ice House (in Pasadena). Also Around this time the group played a club in Hollywood call the Odyssey and they started to get interest from record companies.They cut there first studio demo for Elektra Records. In late 1970 they turned down a record deal with Elektra as Levin and Campbell got an offer to play on an album with folk artist Jimmy Spheeris on Columbia Records. The two went to New York and helped arrange, record and produce the record.When they returned they continued to perform with Geoffrey Lewis for special events, concerts using any excuse to be seen. The trio's interest in the group was based on love ...
| | I Belong To This Band: Eighty-Five Years Of Sacred Harp Recordings CD (2006)
Zero One music CDs
$13.35 As a companion CD to the film Awake, My Soul: The Story of the Sacred Harp, I Belong to This Band: Eighty-Five Years of Sacred Harp Recordings collects 30 performances in the Sacred Harp style, recorded as early as 1922 and as recently as 2006. As explained in the liner notes, Sacred Harp singing -- a form of Southern gospel music that's rather obscure to much of the general population -- "is characterized by mass participation, full-voiced singing, lack of instrumental accompaniment, and rotation of song leaders." Most of the material performed dates from before the middle of the 19th century, which helps give even the recent recordings in the genre a haunted, out-of-time feeling, and often the beginning sections are sung with the syllables "fa," "sol," "la," and "mi." Not that it matters much, but it's not the most chronologically balanced overview, with no recordings at all drawn from between the years 1960 and 2005, though a good 13 of them were done at the Henagar-Union Sacred Harp Convention in July 2006. In truth, there's not much difference between the 2006 cuts and the older ones, except that they were recorded more clearly, such is the agelessness of the form. About the only liberties taken with ...
