| | Bip-Hop Generation, Vol. 4 CD
The fourth installment in Bip-Hop's chronicling of turn-of-the-century electronic music may not be as compelling as Vol. 3, but it still holds strong moments. Warp recording artist Mira Calix opens the set with "Picture 4 You" -- nice percussion loops, but too long for its repetitive contents. Si-cut.db and Twine offer much more meat, the former contributing two glitchy tracks, the latter moodier tunes (there is even a melancholic electric guitar part in "One_2"). Datach'i adds a touch of noise and digi-core -- "Truax" is a highlight. If Vs_Price contributes 11 minutes of decent but personality-lacking, beat-driven experimental techno, the closing 15 minutes, Cray's "Seven Satellites," is much more satisfying. Experimental, riding the fence between academic electro-acoustic music and electronica, it turns out to be the genre-pushing track of the set. Working as a set of tableaux, it frequently looses the listener, only to let him/her find his path again. This collection takes its full meaning when seen as a whole; Bip-Hop is slowly building up an anthology of the state of electronic art in 2000-2001. If this volume lacks a bit of panache and big names, it should not be discarded too quickly. ~ François Couture Bip-Hop Generation, Vol. 4 Music Bip-Hop Generation, Vol. 4 Songs | 1. | Picture 4 You - Mira Calix |

Bip-Hop Generation, Vol. 4 album
$14.38 Glitter and Doom Live, a double-disc set, marks Tom Waits' third live effort in his nearly 40-year career, each one summing up his career to the point of its release. The first, Nighthawks at the Diner issued in 1975 on Asylum, is regarded by many as one of the greatest live albums of all time. The second was Big Time, released during his tenure at Island in 1986. The musical performances on disc one of Glitter and Doom Live were culled from Waits' historic sold-out tour of the U.S. and Europe. He compiled and sequenced the set himself, intending to make them sound like a single show. The material leans, ...

KC's debut album introduced to the world a group that threw various '60s genres into a blender and set the results afire with a blowtorch. One of the pioneers of the progressive rock movement that began in the late '60s and flourished in the early '70s, King Crimson was arguably the most consistently creative band in the genre. On IN THE COURT they blend wispy, Donovan-ish folk-rock with Wagnerian grandeur, mind-bending heavy rock, and even a free- jazz sensibility. Greg Lake's vocals are effectively theatrical but more restrained than in his later ELP work. Robert Fripp was just learning how to make mincemeat of a chord progression, but he's alternately lyrical and frenetic as the moment requires.
