Henryk Wieniawski, Vol. 2
$15.85
The delicate beauty of Harold Budd's music can gradually draw you in with its hypnotic yet elusive nature. SHE IS A PHANTOM, done in conjunction with the avant-classical ensemble Zeitgeist, mines the dewdrop territory of THE PLATEAUX OF MIRROR or THE PEARL rather than the romantic string fantasies of Budd's last solo work, BY DAWN'S EARLY LIGHT. In fact, the only link that this disc shares with the latter is the composer's desire to recite his stark but evanescent poetry against the requisite spare musical backing. This element tends to detract from the immediacy of Budd's fragile vignettes.
PHANTOM never gets too demonstrative, and thankfully so. The album features some of Budd's most evocative works in years. The sparkling synth and piano textures of "Nearly Awakened..." and the gentle cymbal strokes circulating through "Emboldened/My Dreams Perish" are two noteworthy examples. The album's brief 18 tracks flow through you, as though you're gradually descending the length of a spiral marble staircase. At the conclusion of PHANTOM, you're left breathless and swept up in the grandeur.

Liner Note Author: Karl Jenkins.
Recording information: CTS Studios, London, England (1996).
Photographer: Mitch Jenkins.
Adiemus II: Cantata Mundi is world music in the broadest sense of the word. It stems from the world of Karl Jenkins' imagination. Tribal, new age, and classical are all possible labels, but none quite fit the imagined landscape of Jenkins' compositions. The opening track, "Song of Tears," is probably the most famous track from the album. As with all of Adiemus' songs, vocals consist of nonsense syllables -- a language invented to allow the voice to function as another instrument. It allows the listener to focus on the overall layers of the composition and the emotion it evokes, rather than what the lyrics tell you to feel. "Song of Tears" is a prime example of this. It deftly combines mournful longing with a sense of hope, all with an indefinable tribal feel. "Song of the Spirit" captures the tempestuousness of the human spirit with a lively arrangement. "Choral IV" is in many ways its opposite, with plaintive, haunting vocals and orchestration. Though the novelty wears off about halfway through this lengthy album (75 minutes), it never tires you. Miriam Stockley's vocals are truly stunning, ranging from solemn to joyful, soaring to soothing. The London Philharmonic adds full-bodied orchestral support to this unique work. Cantata Mundi is music for the soul, transcending categorization. It's lovely and haunting, soothing and invigorating, majestic and intimate. ...

AIM RIGHT FOR THE HOLES IN THEIR LIVES, from indie-rockers Novillero, is avialable on the Mint label.
Novillero frontman Rod Slaughter moves past the mod minimalism of his previous band Duotang with Aim Right for the Holes in Their Lives. Embracing power pop harmonies, sunshine pop horn arrangements, and Krautrock-inspired synths, this near-perfect debut is most firmly aligned with fellow Vancouver pop dynamos and Mint labelmates the New Pornographers, sharing their knack for whip-smart melodies and ingratiating choruses. Aim Right for the Holes in Their Lives is a classicist pop record in every sense, recalling the halcyon days of AM radio -- virtually every song sounds like a forgotten hit from 1975, extolling virtues like buoyancy and grandeur as though they never went out of style. ~ Jason Ankeny

Henryk Wieniawski, Vol. 2
$15.19
The music of Richard Searles blends elements of Celtic, Renaissance and World Music styles using both traditional and modern instruments to create a sound at once soothing and evocative.Primarily a guitarist, Searles developed a keen ear for the enticing sounds of the world’s many musical styles through travels to Great Britain, Africa, Asia and the Middle East. While studying classical guitar, he was first exposed to Medieval and Renaissance music through the recordings of David Munrow and Paul Odette. These experiences, along with an appreciation for the inherent beauty of the sounds and rhythms of the Earth, are the continuing influences on his music.While most of Searles’ compositions revolve around the guitar, it is the mixture of instruments that defines his style. Using harpsichord and tabla together and joining synthesized and environmental sounds with classical guitar result in combinations that are not exactly traditional. In the context of his music, however, the unorthodox mix of East and West, Ancient and Modern helps to transport the listener into new realms bound only by the imagination.When listening to his music, one can feel a concern for the planet and an awareness of the dangers to life in a shrinking world. But there is also a sense of hope and a positive life energy balancing ...
