Jason Holstrom is a Seattle-based musician and producer known for his work with Of Montreal and for his membership in the groups United State of Electronica and Wonderful. Left to his own devices on The Thieves of Kailua, he has fashioned a sort of surf-pop opus full of Hawaiian resonance and with heavy nods to the sugarcoated harmonies and rich melodic layers of the Beach Boys. The title track is a veritable epic of the form: a blissful, sweeping song, packed with vocal harmonies and unexpected little shifts. Elsewhere, Holstrom (from his Seattle bedroom) constructs more directly Hawaiian-leaning fare, such as "Return of the Tourist!" and "On the Waikiki." Using surprising instrumentation, field recordings, and lo-fi ingenuity, Holstrom has crafted a lush pocket epic of tropical pop. This is not a cheeky nod to forms of the past, but a meticulously layered and well-composed batch of top-notch, sun-soaked compositions. ~ Erik Hage

Jason Holstrom: Jason Holstrom; Angela Holstrom (vocals); Ryan Richter (dobro).

Recording information: The Cabana, Seattle, WA (12/2003-07/2005).No Depression (p.109) - "[U]tterly beguiling....An ambitious orchestral pop suite inspired by Hawaiian and calypso rhythms."

On This Is War, 30 Seconds to Mars shift their music with the shifting times, adopting a hybrid of the Killers' retro new wave and My Chemical Romance's gothic prog, winding up with a sound that suits their stance. Producers Steve Lillywhite and Flood, both veterans of U2, do give This Is War an appropriately epic scale, helping to bring into focus this mix of synth rock, metal, and prog flavors with Auto-Tuned vocals, gurgling synthesized loops, Kanye cameos, and a children's choir on almost every other song. This move toward goth-glam requires 30 ...

Last time around, Shakira touched upon so many styles she couldn't be contained on one album, splitting Oral Fixation in two. This time, she focuses on one sound only: a pulsating electro-disco that crosses all boundaries and welcomes all nationalities. Such concentration behooves Shakira, freeing her to release her inner She Wolf, a wild wacko who's as coo coo as she is carnal. And for as sexy as Shakira is -- crucially, her music is sexy too -- what really gives She Wolf its bite is her inspired nuttiness, how she laments that Matt Damon's not meant for her, and wishes her ex-lover and his new girl a horrible vacation where the room ...

Thieves Of Kailua music CDs
CD $18.55
If you had never heard another release on the Barbarity label before this one, you'd be justifiably excited by its fusion of hard techno beats and ambient production with washes of strange Moroccan sounds, many of them grounded in traditional North African music. If you had heard a few other Barbarity releases already, you'd be justifiably disappointed to hear essentially more of the same, with a heavier reliance on Western hardware than is necessary and desirable. More flexible and organic rhythms would serve the traditional elements better, but this was still a creditable East-meets-West loggerhead, mining a territory relatively few others had ventured into as of the early 21st century. The cut featuring Nina Hagen ("Durga Kali Mantra," presented here in an "astral mix" no less) would probably get the most attention from casual listeners. But she was just one of several singers contributing guest vocals to the disc, the others including rai singer Vicky (no last name) and Tunisian vocalist Amina Annabi. There are all manner of unclassifiable echoes of North African music peeking into the mix over the course of the lengthy program, and some of the techno-reverb effects were imaginative-to-amazing. But as with virtually all Barbarity product, there was a sense that the overseers couldn't let go of those anvil beats and put more trust in the (to western ears, anyway) exotic wind-blown vocals, violin, and darbukka to carry more of the weight. ~ Richie Unterberger Dar Beida = Casablanca in Arabic; 04 = Popular and intense part of the city; Impiria = Place in the old medina, where all started ! Casablanca, summer 1997, Bill Laswell`s incredible Ambient album "Lost in Translation", gave Abderrahim Akkaoui and Pat Jabbar the impulse to start a new project, focusing on instrumental Chill Out soundscapes. The first tracks were recorded 1997/98 in Basel. They sounded very smooth and calm, not one human voice, no beat, loop or bassline was to be found. But one track, "Mesk El Lil", had by accident a strange rhythmic cycle from a keyboard pad, so to accentuate it, a little loop was added to the song. The reaction was: Wow, let`s introduce also a kick, a bassline.... and the Ambient track was completly gone ! Slowly this also happened to all other tracks and the decision was taken to do a "real" Ambient thing at another time... During this period, French distributor Night and Day, had a press attache working on the Sapho album. Her name was Mady. By accident or by "Mektoub" (destiny), she was and still is one of Nina Hagen`s best friends. From that moment on, the idea of ...
Revolver
Haunted Revolver CD  (2004)

Thieves Of Kailua songs
CD $13.85  4.4 stars Audio Samples
The Haunted's fourth studio album was their first for renowned metal label Century Media, and one has to wonder if the Swedish neo-thrash favorites felt they had something to prove to their new record company. Picking up the slack from 2003's typically energetic but somewhat tired-sounding One Kill Wonder opus (recorded soon after one of the Björler brothers threatened to derail the band's progress by going temporarily AWOL), rEVOLVEr brings back that elusive element called "songwriting" (remember that?), so crucial to keeping speed-laden records from concluding on a disappointing "what just happened?" note. No such fears here, since the "EVOLVE" purposefully inserted into rEVOLVEr's title is immediately evident in new offerings "Abysmal" (unnaturally melodic and ultra-creepy), "Burnt to a Shell" (prowling with desperate intensity), and "My Shadow" (a bonus track that's simply deeply disturbing). More importantly, even when the Haunted don't deviate from the norm, there's ...
