| | Ash Ra Tempel Tropical Heat CD (1991) (Import) France
Humla music CDs
$28.89 This 1991 set from the German prog rockers is something of an anomalie, as they actually cut loose and get sweaty on a tune that, logically enough, is titled "Nights In Sweat." Features five other compositions, including "Mosquito Dance" and "Pretty Papaya."
Manuel Göttsching made the transition to the '80s seemingly without a hitch, his 1984 album E2-E4 proving foundational for subsequent electronic dance music. However, Tropical Heat (recorded in 1985 and 1986 but not released until 1991) was a rare misstep. Accompanied by Harald Grosskopf (electronic drums) and Lutz Ulbrich (guitar, keyboards), Göttsching dabbles in new age musical tourism, infusing excruciatingly clean, synthetic rock with vapid Latin and Caribbean nuances. Unfortunately, this record supports the sort of uninformed criticism often leveled against electronically oriented music: it really is lifeless, soulless, and cold, and while Göttsching might have conceived of Tropical Heat as the soundtrack to some imaginary exotic voyage, it doesn't travel at all well beyond the mid-'80s. "Pretty Papaya" has all the charm of cruise-ship Muzak, with some faux-Hawaiian guitar thrown in; the gratuitous horn samples and synth-drum rolls on "Nights in Sweat" conjure up images of a supper-club band covering Kid Creole; and "Don't Stop the Fan" falls somewhere between limp white reggae and "La Isla Bonita." There's a faintly beautiful melody on "Monsoon," but it gets lost amid the clutter, the main culprit being Grosskopf's antiseptic synth drums, which are irritatingly omnipresent throughout the record. One of the stronger numbers, the busy and bouncy "Mosquito Dance," almost achieves one of Göttsching's signature mesmeric grooves, but after nearly nine minutes, the track ultimately fails to go anywhere, demonstrating the huge difference between hypnotic and plain repetitive. The 1980s really were the great leveler. The era's burgeoning electronic innovations allowed a new generation of artists to make catchy mainstream pop with a relatively small outlay and, often, only a modicum of talent. Nevertheless, many pioneering artists of the '70s struggled in that new environment. More a-ha than Ashra, Manuel Göttsching's uncharacteristic lapse with Tropical Heat is evidence of that. ~ Wilson Neate
Tropical Heat shows Ashra as fresh and exciting in the '90s as their mid-period Virgin albums were in the '70s with the same original lineup, including Manuel Goettsching leading the band on synths and guitar, Lutz Ulbrich on synths, as well as guitar, and Harald Grosskopf on electronic percussion. Together they produce a set of catchy melodies ...
| | Ravin Buddha-Bar, Vol. VI CDs (2004)
Humla songs
$44.25 This is a continuous in-the-mix CD compiled and mixed by DJ Ravin.
The sixth installment in the famed Buddha-Bar series is the creation of producer Ravin, a Paris-based DJ of Indian extraction who has been combining traditional sounds of South Asia with European electronica for the past 15 years, and is currently the resident DJ at the London bar from which this series gets its name. Buddha-Bar, Vol. VI consists of two discs, about half the contents of which are previously unreleased. Assuming that the 13 tracks included on the condensed promotional version are representative of the whole album, it's a beautiful and surprisingly restful affair -- funky enough, to be sure, but not something that will compel you to dance if you're not up for that. Michael Stipe is almost unrecognizable on a gentle and introspective romantic ballad called "The ...
| | Barbara Morgenstern Vermona Et 6-1 CD (1999) (Import) Australia
Humla album
$16.55 One of the initial releases of the Monika label, Vermona ET 6-1 is the first widely available album of Barbara Morgenstern, and while it's rudimentary and fairly modest relative to her subsequent work, beginning with the following year's Fjorden (2000), it's pleasant nonetheless and should be particularly interesting for devotees curious about the Berliner's roots. Morgenstern's indie electronica tendencies are most apparent here, as over half the album is comprised of electronic instrumentals that carry on for a few minutes, generally exploring a small palette of bleepy sounds in a riff-like fashion. Rhythms are employed, but this is not dance music; it's more post-rock than techno, arguably. The first few even-numbered tracks are actual songs, highlighted by Morgenstern's ...
