(2 Customer Reviews)
The concepts of musical multiculturalism and postmodern synthesis were paid a lot of lip service in the early 21st century, but it took an album like CeU's self-titled debut to give the terms true meaning. Finding itself at the intersection of traditional Brazilian forms and urban contemporary attitude, CeU's music is a seductive aural melting pot that plays like the soundtrack to the new global village. CEU mixes bossa nova, samba, and Latin jazz with trip-hop, dance pop, Afropop, and reggae (her cover of Bob Marley's "Concrete Jungle" is one of the album's many highlights). It also blends singer-songwriter intimacy with heady, top-tier production, gorgeous melodies with street-wise grooves, and Spanish-language lyrics with a musical vocabulary as wide as the world.

Ceu album
$10.09 Tom Russell has been slugging it out on the unpaved singer/songwriter road to oblivion for decades. He's been through crooked promoters, bad label deals, playing in dives, and crummy travel accommodations. Russell likes to be paid, and paid well, but he's down in the dregs of the music biz using it for another purpose: all this time he's been chasing a dark, shimmering muse down highways and swampy backroads, across oceans and continents; he's in it to touch and wrestle with song itself. Love and Fear is the record that comes after Hotwalker, the enigmatic, beautifully flawed, ambitious jewel in his large catalog. Russell goes even deeper into the subterranean on Love and Fear, singing "I scratch the surface at my own peril," on the spooky, atmospheric "Beautiful Trouble"; those words are the very mantra for this set. The tune becomes musique noir with its hand percussion, skeletal reverbed guitar, and Russell's slowly whispering growl that's simultaneously an exhortation to revel in the fruits of the night and a an unapologetic confession. His desire for the edges of marginal experience is found in the shadows. The song is the signature and silhouette of those encounters, a postcard from the ...
| | T-Bone Burnett Twenty Twenty: The Essential T Bone Burnett CDs (2006)
Ceu CD music
$15.99 Released in conjunction with T-Bone Burnett's first new studio album in more than a decade, 2006's TRUE FALSE IDENTITY, this 40-track collection presents a fine selection of the lauded producer/performer's earlier work. While some of the material on the two-disc set dates back to the 1970s, many songs are from Burnett's relatively prolific ...
| | Babel DVD (2006) Widescreen; Dubbed; Subtitled
Ceu music CDs
$10.49 BABEL is the crowning achievement in the trilogy from the unstoppable creative pairing of screenwriter Guillermo Arriaga and director Alejandro Gonzalez Innaritu, which also includes AMORES PERROS (2000) and 21 GRAMS (2003). Building upon its predecessors' method of weaving together disparate storylines, BABEL reaches new heights of ambition with a tale that, in the absence of traditional narrative and protagonist, relies on numerous incredible performances to evoke an affecting relevance by framing contemporary issues in very human struggles and mistakes. Richard and Susan (Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett) are a wealthy couple from San Diego who are vacationing in Morocco in order to heal after the death of their young child; their other two children are at home with their Mexican maid, Amelia (Adriana Barraza). In a complex shift of ownership to which the audience is privy, a rifle finds its way into the hands of a local herdsman's young sons (Said Tarchani and Boubker Ait El Caid), who recklessly take a shot at a tour bus and catch Susan in the shoulder, ...
| | Mofro Lochloosa CD (2004)
Ceu songs
$14.15 Three years after their celebrated debut, Blackwater, north central Florida's Mofro return with another offering of steamy, greasy "front-porch soul" produced by Dan Prothero. Lochloosa refers to Lake Lochloosa, on the outskirts of Jacksonville, FL, the earthly and archetypal home to Mofro's John "JJ" Grey and Daryl Hance. A raw meld of swampy funk, back-to-basics rock, and Southern soul bleeds from these grooves, as it did on Blackwater. Lochloosa is a hand-carved example of the kind of music that happens after midnight when all the civilians have gone home. Things get blurry, intimate, less self-conscious, sexual, maybe even a little dangerous. A practical contrast would be from Florida's own terrain: this set feels more like Tony Joe White than it does Lynyrd Skynyrd. Oh yeah, that is a good thing. The unabashedly masculine, heartfelt concern for the terrain and a way of life that comes from it is presented with wiry, tough, sinewy songs that never stoop to whining or cheap, sloganeering ploys. Here are songs that howl with a down-home recklessness that balances rough-and-tumble celebratory hedonism with folksy backwoods spirituality.
On the title track, Mike Sharpio's Fender Rhodes ...

| | Band Cahoots CD (1971) Sacd Hybrid
Ceu CD music
$23.70 The Band's fourth album, from 1971, shows the strains which accompanied its recording, and in fact continued to unravel the group over the next five years. Much anticipated upon its release, it can now be appreciated as the fragmented work that it is. Having set impossibly high standards with their previous releases, they were bound to teeter, and they did. But even when falling short of their masterpieces MUSIC FROM BIG PINK and THE BAND, they are still a powerful force ...
| | Nasar Abadey Mirage CD (2000)
Ceu music CDs
$14.69 Talented Washington-based drummer Nasar Abadey has built a solid reputation as a sideman with several groups, particularly those led by trumpeter Malachi Thompson. Mirage documents a collection of recordings from the 1990s from the drummer's band, Supernova, which in the early part of the decade featured the late tenor saxophonist Carter Jefferson. Not surprisingly, Jefferson provides some of the best playing on the album, with his contribution to the live, powerful version of John Coltrane's "Ascension" probably the highlight. Mirage is somewhat of a mixed bag, though, with a few convincing tracks combined with several weaker ones that are a bit of a throwback to the laid-back, fusion-laced, modal '70s. The closing "Chakra Cocktail" uses synthesizers for ...

| | Mike Villalva Introduction EP CD (2007)
Ceu songs
$7.49 Colorado Springs, Colorado’s Mike Villalva is a promising songwriter/performer who began writing songs on his guitar at the age of 16. Since that time, he has written over 350 songs either as a solo artist or for one of his previous bands (most notably The Summerlife), showcasing his prolific and diverse songwriting abilities. Growing up the son of a Marine officer, Villalva spent much of his childhood on the move. At the age of 9, during a cross country move from the West Coast of California to the East Coast of Virginia, Villalva first caught glimpse of his life’s calling when he stumbled across the movie “Jailhouse Rock” while in a hotel room for an overnight stay. Fast forward to today, and you will undoubtedly notice the influences he has carried through the years. For this reason Villalva often captures the ears attuned to the likes of Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Chris Isaak, and other similar artists. One of Villalva’s more impressive traits however, is the ability to blend these influences with his own brand of songwriting, creating a sound that is familiar yet pleasingly fresh to the ears and able to stand its own in today’s market. Following the dissolution of The Summerlife in November 2006, Mike Villalva immediately set to work establishing ...
