Budd's first solo release since 1991, this is proof that Budd's talent remains consistent: always maintaining that delicate balance between pretty ambient music and something darker in mood that seeps into the corners of his melodies. Divided into four sections, Luxa features six piano-led pieces, a trio of miniatures, five more ambient drones, and a duo of covers from Marion Brown and Steven Brown respectively. The titles suggest homages to some of Budd's favorite 20th century artists (according to the press release) though you'd be hard pressed to hear much of Chet Baker, Serge Poliakoff, and Agnes Martin in these works unless you stretched your brain. Relaxing, warm music, like sun on a red tile floor. ~ Ted MillsQ (10/96, p.158) - 4 Stars - Excellent - "...Relying on trademark sparse piano, mesmeric synth tones and some ethereally reverberant Hammond organ, these are effortlessly lovely pieces....A soothing sonic balm plucked from the desert cauldron..."

| | Sufjan Stevens Illinois CD (2005)
Luxa album
$12.09 The second entry from sui generis singer/songwriter Sufjan Stevens in his absurdly ambitious project to make a record for every state in America outdistances even 2003's superb GREETINGS FROM MICHIGAN in scope and beauty. A sweeping paean to the Lincoln state, ILLINOIS weaves together history, personal confession, and detail-filled scenarios with chamber folk, expansive orchestral pop, and back-porch pastoral settings for a stunningly progressive indie gem that sound like Brian Wilson, Stereolab, and Neil Young holding hands in heaven.
Remarkably, in its intricate, gorgeously crafted surfaces, ILLINOIS lives up to its aims. In addition to its symphonic grandeur, the album also showcases Stevens's heartland folk, and some of the album's most shimmering moments are its most spare. "John Wayne Gacy, Jr.," for instance, is an absorbing narrative that features Stevens's sweet tenor couched by ...

$18.19 Steve Hall BioInternational Steinway Artist, Steve Hall, has been playing the piano since the age of five, having been classically trained until the age of eighteen. He then developed a music career and continued to pursue it on a part-time basis, playing at thousands of weddings and private parties. Upon graduation from USC (majoring in history with a minor in music,) he began a management career in banking, which lasted almost twenty-five years. Steve has been honored many times in banking, yet music has remained his passion. He became known as "The Banker With The Beat." At every event where he performed, Steve's music and styling received tremendous attention. Enthusiastic fans began to request recorded samples of his music. Encouraged by his family and friends, and with overwhelming response, Bankbeat Productions, Inc. was born in July of 1992 with the recording of his first album, "Notes of Romance." The music sold rapidly and was soon picked up by national distributing companies for sale in gift shops, Hallmark stores, boutiques, book shops and privately-owned businesses. Thirteen years and many recordings later, Bankbeat Productions, Inc. has sold over 1.6 million albums! The company currently offers thirty-one musical collections. In addition, Steve recently released his first DVD, "All Things Bright and Beautiful," which features captivating scenes of nature with selected songs from his inspirational albums. Steve categorizes his music as "great-sounding, heart warming, familiar tunes." He attributes his musical success to his attentiveness toward people and what they want to hear. His father had always told him to play from the heart, and both his mom and his dad encouraged him to share God's gift of music with others. Indeed, it is his music's uplifting appeal and familiarity that has earned Steve a loyal following from people of all walks of faith. With the success of three more romantic albums, "Coming Home", "Timeless Love", and "Gift of Love", Steve began to concentrate on recording the music of his childhood...inspirational music. Despite the skepticism expressed by his distributors for the appeal of inspirational music, Steve released his 1996 recording, "On Eagle's Wings." This album has surpassed sales of 650,000 units and has brought heartfelt correspondence ...
