This live double CD captures the ethereal funk of Philadelphia's highly eclectic jamtronica band, Lotus. Deep, rolling bass, sensual rhythms, celestial guitar harmonics, and synth come together to form a new kind of soulful world/jazz/techno that is highly danceable and listenable. It's hard to pick a stand-out track, but the slinky "When H Binds to O" best represents the meshing of all the instrumental band's influences.

| | Bola Shapes CD (2006) (Import) United Kingdom
Escaping Sargasso Sea music CDs
$15.15
Not a new album as such, Shapes is actually the re-release of three 12" singles from just after the time of Bola's debut, Soup, in the late '90s. That makes Shapes a bit of a long-distance equivalent to, say, Aphex Twin's Chosen Lords, but regardless of provenance what's striking about the disc is how well it works throughout -- in an era when IDM now seems almost totally played out on many fronts, Shapes actually has some heft and impact to it. Credit perhaps to the limitations of the original release and its format, designed for dancing as much as contemplation. The elegant opening cut, untitled like the rest of the songs, is a classic slow burn and build of a song, dark, almost industrial basslines providing the anchor for an increasingly hyperactive but never flat-out chaotic percussion montage, finally breaking into a sweetly serene ...

PINING AWAYChristian bands have, in our opinion, the most inspirational of all subject matters to sing about—the profound realities of the Creator. Yet we feel much of what we hear today has done very little to convey that inspiration, musically speaking. Though Solomon pined that there was nothing new under the sun, that hardly gives us a reason to settle for the same tired old music. From the all-too-familiar nashville mass-production sound to the overloaded alternative bandwagon to the endless throng of hip-hopping minstrels, Christian music has become saturated with the mundane. There are, of course, some brave sorts on the fringe who have climbed aboard the screaming industrial train, and that has at least opened the door for "something different"; but we always thought it odd to juxtapose an angry dark tone with the Light of the World. To each his own, but why give in to what others have already done? Why join the ranks already plodding along the Lemming Trail? Let's try something new. In the late 70’s and early 80’s musicians gave the world a marvelous resurgence of creativity. Progressive Rock reached its glorious peak, the dawn of the synthesizer ushered in the New Wave, and people believed that such a thing as "melody" was still a good idea. True to the spirit of innovation, Approximate Height has endeavored to capture some of the creativity of that by-gone era. IF YOU HAD TO PIN US DOWNWe do admit, even with the drive to be different, Approximate Height has their musical influences. Originality doesn't thrive in a vacuum. Your heroes will invariably wiggle their way into your compositions. Fortunately, our influences are obscure. You probably never heard of Ultravox; and if you had to pin us down, we’re something like Ultravox. But then again, no. Some marketing experts told us you better be able to identify your style with somebody famous or nobody’s going to give you a chance. Well, we tried! Who do we sound like? That’s a tough one. We're betting you'll have trouble nailing that down yourself. I guess if our lives depended on providing some mainstream connections, a few of our riffs might sound like Rick Nielsen’s guitar (you know the quirky baseball cap from CHEAP TRICK?), there’s some semblance to GARY NUMAN’s vocalizations, there’s some anthemic ASIA in the mix, there’s a little techno here and there, maybe Geddy Lee & Alex Lifeson from RUSH show up for a few seconds, and you may hear Tony Banks from GENESIS come through on a keyboard solo...again, we say this only if our lives depended on it. In younger days we listened to Ultravox, Gary Numan, Rush, Asia, Genesis, Yes, Kansas, ELP - and they shaped our opinions of good music. That said, it is not our desire to identify with secular bands. We’re a Christian group, and our message and purpose is decidedly different from our music heroes of the past. And we know too that certain channels of rock music have nefarious associations. Remember that devil-horned lead singer from AC/DC? ...
