| | Metalob Plastic Forest CD Metalob Discography of CDs
What comes out if a Japanese with a liking for Rock and Breakbeats creates Oriental Chill Out Moods in his Osaka-based studio? The answer and even more will begiven by a rumble through the "Plastic Forest" where Masumi Samukawa aka Metalob (short form for Metal Of Breakbeats) invites us by his worldwide album debut. After numerous Japan-exclusive releases, Metalob here presents the result of 2 years of intensive Macintosh work, overflowing with hardly restrained imagination. He surprises himself and his audience with unexpected melodious shifts again and again, yet evoking a harmonious vision of a recreation both futuristic and culture-spanning ("Airwave", La´o Ageha"). But by sensitized subsonic percussive breaks like "Anple", "Dorgo" or "Nerve Fish", Samukawa demonstrates that the Breakbeats homage in the project name had not been chosen by chance. East meets West in the magic forest! Metalob Plastic Forest Songs | 1. | Airwave |

| | Prodigy Fat Of The Land CD (1997)
Plastic Forest CD music
$9.79 FAT OF THE LAND was nominated for a 1998 Grammy for Best Rock Album.
Among the most anticipated releases of 1997, The Prodigy's third full-length album is a bulldozing rock-techno hybrid. But while the guitar/samples/hyper-beats mosaic that made "Firestarter" an MTV breakout are found in every nook and cranny of this album, the overall building blocks are far more diverse, making it a tangible melting pot of pre-millennium pop styles.
There's a definite hip-hop element here. "Diesel Power," which features quality mic control by Kool Keith (of Ultramagnetic ...
| | Four Horsemen Gettin' Pretty Good...At Barely Gettin' By CD (1996)
Plastic Forest music CDs
$9.59 The Four Horsemen were quite literally a shattered band come 1996. Five years on from their simplistic but infectious retro-rock debut, they'd been dropped by Def American, been abandoned by their main songwriter guiding force in founding guitarist Haggis, and, most heartbreaking of all, lost drummer Ken "Dimwit" Montgomery to a drug overdose. As the band's last remaining original members, it came down to guitarist Dave Lizmi and troubled singer Frank C. Starr (more on him later) to assemble a new lineup and attempt to shoulder the load themselves on the snidely named Gettin' Pretty Good at Barely Gettin' By. And they did an OK job. The album still featured much of the Four Horsemen's stripped-down, hard-rocking style, but standout cuts such as "Hot Rod" and the poignant "Song for Absent Friends" generally lacked the Southern ...

| | Massive Attack Protection CD (1994)
Plastic Forest CD music
$11.95 Bristol's trip-hop pioneers crystallize their melancholic splendor on PROTECTION. It's a simmering shadow of a soundtrack to urban life, where dub, hip-hop, electronica and soul mesh into something quite singular. Imagine the chilling threnody of scene-mates Portishead allied with rough dancehall, club and South Bronx bass-beats, set ablaze by Mushroom, 3-D and Daddy-G's sour gaze into the millennial horizon. A host of fine guest vocalists help drive the vocal tunes, in turn making the instrumentals stand out all the more.
It is a juxtaposition of cold and hot, alienation and unity, that informs PROTECTION. Tracey Thorn of Everything But The Girl steals the show with her sure, silky vocals on the title track, her voice a sweet fire that thrives ...
| | Jamiroquai Dynamite CD (2005)
Plastic Forest music CDs
$7.59 On 2005's DYNAMITE, Jamiroquai mastermind/vocalist Jay Kay stays deep in a funk/disco groove. While most of the album consists of up-tempo dance-floor-ready tunes, most notably the "Night Fever"-like title track and the bass-driven "Starchild," there are detours into mellower territory, particularly the slow ...
| | Federico Ughi Ulers Two CD (2002)
Plastic Forest songs
$18.25 With ULERS Two, Federico Ughi explores a much more ambient type of music remote from his work as a free jazz drummer. The acronym in the title stands for "Unrehearsed Live Editing of Recorded Sounds." On a journey from Piazza S. Cosimato, Trastevere, to Via Alberico II, Borgo Pio, in Rome, Ughi made a continuous hourlong field recording: cars, conversations, birds, everything you'd expect from life in the streets of a Mediterranean city. Live, he completes the tape with editing, sampling, and light drum and vocal work. The sound source can be altered in some places, but always as an add-on; the tape itself keeps on running, providing the backbone and time line of the piece. The drums remain very quiet, played with fingers or padded mallets and mixed very low. In the last section, Ughi samples his voice, singing low notes, sculpting ethereal harmonies. This is where his hand can be felt the most. Otherwise, the differences between performance and recording, reality (acoustic playing, original sound) and virtuality (sampled playing, edited sound) remain intentionally blurry. This direction in the drummer's music doesn't come out of nowhere. His previous album on 577 with Daniel Carter, although still referential to jazz, allowed an important focus on live sampling and illustrated his interest in ambient atmospheres. But as innovative the concept behind ULERS Two might be, the music lacks involvement -- until the last movement that is. ~ François Couture
Federico Ughi is an artist based in New York with a particular interest in improvisation.This is the live recording of a solo concert Federico Ughi played at 577, Brooklyn, NY in Summer 2001. It's the second performance of a series called ULERS (Unrehearsed Live Editing of Recorded Sounds), in which he does live editing of a one hour continuous recording of a journey I have taken. ULERS Two involves sounds recorded in Rome on a journey from Piazza S. Cosimato, Trastevere to Via Alberico II, Borgo Pio.
