Wave music CDs
$33.59 Amorphis' Asian release AM UNIVERSUM features the bonus recording "Northern Lights."
Death metal isn't for everyone -- especially first-wave Scandinavian death metal as practiced by Amorphis during the band's early years. Some love it, others don't know how seriously to take it, but everyone agrees that the folks who make such an extremely singular noise deserve a little credit for valuing an artistic construct more than the potential commercial value of more "acceptable" music. That same respect isn't usually extended to artists who make the kind of moderate rock that's perpetually heard on the radio. When artists make a break from the heavier side of this spectrum, a special kind of hatefulness is extended, and cries of "sellout" are heard emitting from the jilted voices in the heavy metal peanut gallery. As an automatic response, these accusations are short-sighted and reactionary. Years spent trying to make a living by playing death metal must have its frustrations, and nobody should be criticized for trying something new. When the results are as stifling as Tuonela, however, certain artistic "freedoms" shouldn't exactly be encouraged, either. While the record's generic hard rock turned out to be a commercial boon, it's an artistic flop. Except for a grumbling vocal on "Greed," all remnants of the group's death metal roots had vanished by this, the band's fifth release. It's hard to think that many fans of Amorphis' early work could stomach the barely metallic alt-rock on tracks like "Shining" and "Morning Star." Even without Amorphis' history, Tuonela is still a frustrating record. The guitars are shapeless and barely present, the extra instrumentation is forced, and the vocals are wooden. It all adds up to a kind of simple, lightweight prog that's kind of unnerving. This second take on metal began ...
| | Tim Nelson Mesh CD (2006)
Wave songs
$11.39 On 'Mesh', Tim Nelson played acoustic guitars, cello, flutes (bansuri, Native American, silver boehm, suling, shakuhachi and recorder), Nellotron, cymbals, bongos, dumbek, djembe, chimes, bells, saron and kalimba, as well as some other things he's forgotten about...***********In February 2006, Tim Nelson was interviewed for a future edition of Lightbulb magazine. The following consists of excerpts from that interview which deal specifically with 'Mesh':L: How did this CD come about?TN: It originally started out as an installation piece. I was asked to perform at a gallery opening at which a 30-year retrospective show of an art college's metalsmithing department was being featured. When I saw the rather intimate size of the gallery and the way it was jam-packed with glass jewelry cases, I began to doubt that there'd be a large enough space to set up my equipment, so I thought it might be more appropriate to do it as an installation. I'd been getting ready to record anyway, so I decided to use the opening as my deadline and got to work. Meanwhile, the event was reorganized around another venue. The downside is that there was no installation; the upside is that I finished the CD and here it is!L: What's that on the cover?TN: What do you think it is?L: Well, it's obviously a body part. I think.TN: Uh-huh.L: Is it...? (points)TN: No. That wouldn't be fit for a family publication, now, would it?L: It isn't?TN: No. It's nothing that's normally covered by a bathing suit. Well, unless it's an antique Victorian bathing suit.L: Hmmmm....TN: A wiseacre friend of mine told me he thought it was my armpit, but it's definitely not.L: Ahh... OK. I see that most of the titles have some connection with metalworking.TN: They all do, actually, but most of them have at least two meanings. Or at least two connotations, more accurately.L: You're known primarily as an electric guitarist, but there isn't much guitar on the CD.TN: Is that a bad thing?L: Oh, no, that's not what I mean.TN: It was a conscious decision to try and keep the flow of the installation constant. It was going to be multi-channel with the various tracks looping simultaneously in different parts of the gallery, in different phase, so that as you walked through, the mix would change. But it's funny, at one point in the recording process I was getting frustrated with trying to work exclusively with pieces that had an intentionally similar texture to them, with all the mellotron washes over metallic percussion. My girlfriend had been lobbying me to record some acoustic fingerstyle pieces, which I was resisting because I didn't want the album to start sounding like Windham Hill, y'know? So one day I was working with wind chimes and whatnot, and feeling like it was going nowhere, so I took her parlor guitar down off the wall and recorded two acoustic pieces with a condenser mic. I'm glad I did; I've had a lot of positive reaction to them, and by putting them in the second position and the second-to-last spot, they sort of frame the album nicely.L: ...
| | Iasos Angelic Music CD (1978)
Wave album
$21.55 This is an earlier dose of Iasos's cosmic aspirations. ~ Linda Kohanov
This New-age paradise music pioneer creates crystal vistas - uplifting, gorgeous, spiritually-attuned music from the heavens. His 'heavenly' musical style has been one of the pioneering branches of New Age music -- helping to connect people to the heavenly realms of existence.New AgeIasos was born in Greece in 1947. Settled in California from 1968 on, Iasos utilized almost all his time to compose, teach and give concerts. Five years later, his "heavenly" musical style, already wholly shaped, began to become known as one of the pioneering branches of the emerging New Age Music, of which he considers himself to be one of its first creators. The music provides a glimpse into the beyond -- in fact, In 1989 the Psychology Department of Plymouth State College in New Hampshire informed Iasos that his music received the highest rating, by quite a margin, as being most like the heavenly music they heard while officially "dead" or out of their body. Visit the higher world of a classic New Age artist.Iasos (pronounced ya' sos) was born in Greece in 1947, and his family moved to America when he was four. He began studying piano at age 8 and flute at age 10. Formal music education lasted until the end of high-school, after which he became self-taught, studying the music from around the world, especially the classical composers. In 1967, to his surprise, Iasos began spontaneously "hearing" a new type of music in his mind, which he referred to as "paradise music". After graduating from Cornell in anthropology in 1968, Iasos decided to move to California and to dedicate his life to manifesting this "heavenly music" he was experiencing internally, since he was convinced it would have an uplifting, healing, spiritually-invigorating and harmonizing ...
