| | Music A M Unwound From The Wood CD Music A M Discography of CDs
On their second full-length release, the combined talents of members of Mogwai, To Rococo Rot, and Hauschka conspire to produce a set of sublime vocal and instrumental electronica that's sometimes reminiscent of a more laid-back Postal Service. Chiming keyboards, whispered vocals, and synthetic rhythms blend in a gorgeous swirl of artfully arranged melodies, with particular highlights being the slowly intensifying "NY 75" and the gently percussive rhythms of "Every Bulb in the Place Blew."
This is the second album from Düsseldorf-based Volker Bertelmann (Hauschka, Tonetraeger) and Stefan Schneider (To Rococo Rot, Mapstation), with vocals and lyrics by Scottish author Luke Sutherland (Long Fin Killie, Mogwai). Combining gentle seduction with high tension, Unwound From The Wood features mature electro-pop with subtle wind sections, guitar themes and sophisticated rhythms. These songs are admirably flexible, revealing R&B-style diary entries, shimmering instrumentals and trips that take us to the great pop songwriting-factories of the '60s. Eleven songs teem with sparkling electronics, driving drum patterns, whirlpools of guitar and Rhodes, choirs beamed in from distant solar systems, all laid out on beds of the bluest bass and brass, accompanied by stories of love, loss, longing and libido. Quatermass. 2006.

Susan Boyle's grand unveiling on Britain's Got Talent was with a song from Les Miserables - the very song that lends this album its title -- and if she could become an international sensation based on a show tune standard, there's no reason for her to change her approach on her debut, since that's the sound that made her a star. Plus, a large part of Boyle's appeal is that she's a middle-aged woman recalling a bygone era when there were ...

Like the HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL franchise, GLEE became more than a TV show when several of its songs cracked the Hot 100, including the number four hit "Don't Stop Believing." That song kicks off this soundtrack, the first in a series of albums cataloging the music performed by the show's cast. Not all GLEE members are created equal--some cast mates are far better actors than singers--but this soundtrack ...
