(2 Customer Reviews)
This is a continuous in-the-mix CD compiled and mixed by John Digweed.
BEDROCK follows from the success of Digweed's very successful night of the same name at London's Heaven. The compilation is something of a departure for Digweed, and its dark, funky blend of deep house and trance shows the DJ distancing himself from the more commercial and formulaic trance popularized by acts such as ATB and DJ Jean, who scored huge chart success in 1999. Here, Digweed creates a much grittier, underground sound that will surprise fans of his earlier RENAISSANCE and NORTHERN EXPOSURE mixes.
The tone is set perfectly by the first track, Raff 'n' Freddy's "Listen," whose haunting vocal and emotive wash of strings sneaks up on you before you are drawn into an increasingly mesmerizing swirl of darkly pulsating basslines. Occasional spoken and whispered sinister vocals and even hints of disco emphasize Digweed's new manifesto for future funk. The second CD returns to somewhat more familiar trance territory with Sandra Collins' "Flutterby" and Slacker's "Flying." The album ends with the sublime "Heaven Scent" (another reference to the club night), produced by Digweed and his recording partner Nick Muir--the track's soaring synthesizer arpeggios close the album in inspiring style.

Bedrock songs
$9.89 (MP3 Available for Download) Faith Hill won the 2000 CMA Award for Female Vocalist Of The Year.
BREATHE won the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Country Album. "Breathe" won the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Female Country Vocal Performance. "Let's Make Love" won the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Country Collaboration with Vocals. "Breathe" was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award in the categories of Best Country Song and Song Of The Year. "The Way You Love Me" was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Country Song.
With her third album, FAITH, Faith Hill tasted pop crossover success--and she evidently liked the taste. BREATHE, Hill's fourth release, takes the pop/country stylings of FAITH to the next level. It's an appealing collection of pop, gospel, R&B, rock, and ballads, with just a bit of country thrown in. The production, featuring Hill's big voice surrounded by booming drums and screaming guitars, is so slick you could skate on it.
Love is the subject of nearly every song, from the exuberant "I Got My Baby," to the soulful "Love Is a Sweet Thing," to the cutesy "The Way You Love Me," with its Beatlesque backing vocals. But while Hill can obviously handle a wide range of material, she sounds best on the quieter, country-flavored numbers, like the title track, the lovely "It Will ...
| | John Digweed Global Underground: Hong Kong CDs (1999)
Bedrock album
$19.65 Releasing around one mix album a year during his prolific late-'90s/early-2000s reign atop the dance world, John Digweed surely wasn't afraid of flooding the market. Of his many releases, though, his Global Underground mixes deserve special notice, and it's not necessarily because they're his best releases. Rather, with each successive Global Underground release, Digweed continually updated his sound with new records, new producers, and a new direction for progressive dance music. The Hong Kong entry fits nicely between his Sydney (1998) and Los Angeles (2001) albums in terms of direction. Where Sydney found him trailblazing within the late-'90s trance reniassance via big records by the likes of Paul van Dyk and Albion, and the Los Angeles set found him abandoning that same trance sound for a much darker, dirtier, and more straightforward set of monsterous progressive house records, Hong Kong offers a bit of both -- a nice even balance, actually. The first set is anchored by a few undeniable standouts -- Underworld's "Cups," Luzon's "The Baguio Track," Cevin Fisher's "Music Saved My Life," and Medway's climactic "Flanker" -- and an accompanying array of mostly non-descript transitional tracks. It's a ...
| | Talking Heads - Stop Making Sense DVD (1984) Widescreen
Bedrock CD music
$25.55 Those who aren't familiar with the work of seminal 1980s band The Talking Heads may find themselves becoming instant fans after viewing this incredibly entertaining concert film. It starts with David Byrne stepping out alone on empty stage with an acoustic guitar to sing "Psycho Killer." The rest of the musicians follow one by one and the stage gradually fills to bursting with powerful, tightly orchestrated brilliance. Director Jonathan Demme (SILENCE OF THE LAMBS, PHILADEPLPHIA) expertly captures the music's energy, fusing cinema with performance to create something more than ...
| | Paul Oakenfold Tranceport CD (1998)
Bedrock MP3 Album
$13.69 TRANCEPORT is a continuous, in-the-mix recording by Paul Oakenfold.
Paul Oakenfold was already a guru of the techno world by the time this 1998 sampler was released, and the deeply textured tracks on TRANCEPORT only served to underscore his popularity. Given that trance (along with deep house) is one of Oakenfold's specialties, it's not surprising that the album is one of the better trance compilations available.
Eleven compositions from the likes of Paul ...
| | John Digweed Global Underground: Los Angeles CDs (2001)
Bedrock music CDs
$21.05 This is a continuous in-the-mix CD compiled and mixed by DJ John Digweed.
For John Digweed's third installment in the popular Global Underground series, the superstar DJ tones down his track selection a bit, focusing less on theatrical hands-in-the-air moments and more on subtle yet highly nuanced rhythm-driven tracks. Truthfully, it's quite difficult to pick out any "peak" moments, or any clear-cut anthems in the mix. From beginning to end, Digweed spins nothing but darkness-exuding records that inspire intoxicating abandonment. The music's sublime employment of enthralling mesmerization never gets too intense or dramatic, simmering steadily at ethereal levels of emotion rather than euphoric heights. This restraint is indeed welcome. After his late-'90s run as one of progressive trance's leading spokespersons (best exemplified by his anthem of anthems, "Heaven Scent"), a backlash was surely mounting. Thankfully, this album's snubbing move away from progressive trance perhaps signals a new direction for the DJ -- and maybe even for the trance movement in general. Nearly every track here employs a progressive house structure -- booming 4/4 bass beats, high-hat fills, ...
| | John Digweed Stark Raving Mad CDs (2003)
Bedrock songs
$15.59 This is a continuous in-the-mix CDcompiled and mixed by DJ John Digweed & Muir.
Stark Raving Mad, the soundtrack to an American film ("imagine, if you can, Trainspotting meets Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels!"), is a two-disc mix album allowing resident superstar DJ John Digweed a chance to air many of his own Bedrock-affiliated tracks -- and boost the profile of his studio boffin, Nick Muir (who co-produces all of Digweed's tracks). Though he's been one of trance's main figureheads for half a decade, Digweed's been less willing to stick with the style on a constant basis, and the tracks here reflect that. Unlike Oakenfold and Van Dyk, he's willing to push things forward slightly, with more stylistic detours and fewer concessions to fan-friendly effects and breakdowns. Early on ...

Bedrock CD music
$13.89 (MP3 Available for Download) Recorded live at Royal Festival Hall, London, England on July 26 & 28, 2000.
This trio has been most closely associated with its exploration of standards (the group is often referred to as Jarrett's "Standards Trio"). A 1987 US tour departed from that format, heading into the more free-form terrain all three musicians had embraced in the '60s. Those results were heard ...
