From its vaguely disturbing cover photo to the arty gloom contained within, the Human League's 1979 debut album is considerably different from the smooth pop singles which later made them stars. Recorded by the trio of singer Phil Oakey and synthesizer players Martyn Ware and Ian Craig Marsh--who left the band in 1980 to form the British Electric Foundation and its offshoot group Heaven 17--REPRODUCTION is a stark, minimalist postpunk document which has more in common with Joy Division than Duran Duran.

That said, it's also an interesting, sometimes fascinating slice of early electro-pop which should appeal to fans of the style's fringier elements. The engaging single "Empire State Human," a bizarre cover of "You've Lost that Lovin' Feelin'" and the just plain weird "Circus of Death" are particular highlights.

The moody, sparse electronic sound of the Human League's debut album from 1979 is the very reason why 'Reproduction' has become suddenly back in vogue by electronic music fans. All the tracks from the first three Human League indie label singles have been added as bonus tracks including 'Being Boiled' (Fast Product Version) which David Bowie declared, upon its release, as being the future sound of music. Additional bonus tracks, 'Introducing', 'The Dignity Of Labour' (Parts One through Four), 'Flexi Disc', & 'Circus Of Death' (Fast Product Version). Remastered. Caroline. 2003.

Originally released in 1979.

Human League: Ian Craig Marsh, Martyn Ware, Philip Oakey.

Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

4 stars the 'ol days
this cd takes me back to a time when music was more innocent, when experimentation was allowed, sure I was young and easily impressed…. But so was the world… so now this stuff sounds clunky – obvious – and niaive, but it brings back great memories. If you were around back them, this cd will trigger a smile and all the other realisations of past fun.

This CD has the legendary song, Empire State Human. I must have plaed that song at least 100 times when I first bought this in the early 80s. The early Human League stuff had a darker feel than the later LPs that had the girls in the band. In fact, this CD has included as bonus tracks the hard to get and very experimental first EP Dignity of Labour. I might go and have a listen to my old vinyl and may well buy this CD. Worth a listen.

Sword Age Of Winters CD  (2006)

Reproduction
CD $9.49  4.5 stars Audio Samples
Coming to grips with the Sword's unlikely genesis in the alternative music Mecca of Austin, TX, leads one to wonder whether heavy metal has finally become hip again. Depending on your generation, nothing will seem as simultaneously preposterous (Gen-X'ers who came of age during pop-metal's heyday and don't recognize it as an unrepresentative anomaly) or obvious (everyone else) when discussing a genre that's spent the bulk of its 35-year history on the absolute fringe of rock culture. If that isn't "alternative," well, what is? In any case, glorifying heavy metal's prototypical qualities is exactly what the Sword is all about, and their 2006 debut, Age of Winters, sees them joining California's High on Fire, Sweden's Witchcraft, and Australia's Wolfmother (to name but a few) at the forefront of what's gradually become known in the mid-'00s as the "heritage" or "retro-metal" movement. No, not stoner rock -- that's sooo ten years earlier! The only thing the Sword and their ilk have in common with most '90s stoner rockers is recognizing that all heavy metal empires are sprung ...
I'm Not Young But I Need The Money
Monsieur Leroc I'm Not Young But I Need The Money CD  (2006)

Reproduction
CD $11.99  Audio Samples
Sugar Hill Harlem, NYC, by way of Stuttgart Germany: Monsieur Leroc keeps his Piano in nearly the exact same place in which Duke Ellington wrote his classic "Take the A Train". The only difference being one apartment floor in the old St. Nicholas Ave. building which they both have called home. This is where the neo-soul movement of today puts on its dancing shoes. In his third release, Monsieur Leroc pleads guilty with the working class title "I'm not young, but I need the money", but the sympathy stops there. Some where between DJ Shadow, and Jamie Lidell, Leroc doodlebugs into precise form with the albums opener "Cooley McCoolsen". You quickly get the idea that Leroc just wants you to get some, or get something. "I'm not young, but I need the money" is deconstructed and reassembled by Leroc in his home studio in Harlem and also features many guest vocalists and musicians that add all new elements to what has now become a signature Monsieur Leroc sound. Guests include Josh Fischel from "Bargain Music", Los Angeles ...
