| | Jon Jenkins Continuum CD Jon Jenkins Discography of CDs
Continuum is a large-scale symphonic synthesizer effort from Jon Jenkins and Paul Lackey. It comes from the good folks at Spotted Peccary Music. This is a very dramatic and energetic set of melodic compositions. Jenkins and Lackey are on top of their game with this grand soundscape. They have created very subtle and intricate atmospheres to surround the symphonic synth passages. Very subdued samples add realism to the arrangements. But the drama dominates the soundscape. Lackey and Jenkins build walls of sound that lead to a series of crescendos and, ultimately, to fitting climaxes. The atmospheres are part of the denouement. This is essential new age music. It will appeal to fans of Greg Klamt, Constance Demby, Kevin Keller, and John Flomer. ~ Jim Brenholts

| | Wilco Sky Blue Sky CD (2007) Enhanced CD
Continuum music CDs
$10.79 Of course this is still Jeff Tweedy's band, which means SKY BLUE SKY never strays too far from what has emerged as a basic Wilco template. The constantly shifting Chicago ensemble (in its umpteenth incarnation by the album's release) still displays an instrumental precision and studio professionalism while working within a newfangled roots template, and Tweedy himself remains as searching as always, both lyrically and musically. With nary a rave-up in sight, the album could be criticized for being overly serene, but ...
| | David Sylvian Approaching Silence CD (1999)
Continuum songs
$6.99 Originally conceived as music for multi-media installations, as an audio-only experience Sylvian's album provides us with a soporific dose of ambient sounds. The title track is made up of cyclical motifs of bells and sustained chords reverberating like ripples on a pond, punctuated by a rich gong-like guitar chord. This is suffused with hushed animal calls, fragments of fuzzy talk-radio programmes and the garbled falsetto of contributor Robert Fripp.
"Epiphany" takes ...

| | Music Of Indonesia 7: Music From The Forests Of Riau And Mentawai CD (1995)
Continuum music CDs
$13.89 As in South America, Indonesia's forest peoples are threatened by development and urbanization. The Petalangan people of Riau in the highlands of East Sumatra were down to 20,000 at the time these recordings of private songs, and music and dance from shamanistic healing rituals were made. The Petalangan highly respect their musicians and shamans, who guide them through religious practices rich in symbolism. Weather conditions disperse the community into small bands during part of the years. This cyclic migration and their threatened status add extra intensity to their musical manifestations.
The Riau selections begin with xylophone and gong music, most of it performed simply for the entertainment of the players. The music consists of interlocking patterns, sometimes performed by two players who sit facing each other. This intimate, portable music is used at times when the community is dispersed. Next come three selections of more percussive music that would accompany a healing ritual. Hand drums cycle through a variety of rhythms. The shaman plays an iron rattle and sings in a thin, creaky voice as he circulates among the musicians. In each piece, the intensity builds steadily, in one case culminating in squeals of glee from the crowd.
The volume concludes with six selections from the Mentawai, an unrelated forest people from Siberut, an island off the west coast of Sumatra. A woman sings two private songs accompanied by her 12-year-old niece on flute. Lyrics improvised to a familiar song convey the feeling of eavesdropping on a person distractedly singing while at work. A moaning chant performed by three older ...
