This is the second edition of ISDN. The first was a limited edition of 10,000 copies that sold out in 3 days. It features a different cover than the original and two newly substituted tracks.
Techno meets technology when Future Sound of London brings the noise, live and direct, and an ISDN digital phone link provides the conduit. ISDN is FSOL's third album, compiled in 1994 from European and North American radio feeds. Released on the cusp of the Bristol trip-hop revolution/revelation, ISDN finds FSOL moving away from the trance and dance mentality of prior incarnations and toward a synthesis of organic beats and tactile sound-play. Brian Dougans and Garry Cobain, FSOL's electronic brains, present a far less ambient affair than their earlier LIFEFORMS but remain defiant originals.
This American edition of ISDN has been resequenced to include a preceding EP, FAR OUT SON OF LUNG AND THE RAMBLINGS OF A MADMAN. Heralding a shift in favor of hip-hop beats (often sampled from obscure antecedents like 23Skidoo) and downtempo cyberjazz, the EP's title track, "Snake Hips," "Amoeba," and "Smokin' Japanese Babe" ballast ISDN's ghost-infested electronics and amorphous, eerie sound constructions ("You're Creeping Me Out," "Appendage," "Dirty Shadows") with a root system of sinister electronic funk. FSOL's luscious, ever-otherworldly textures define such album tracks as "Egypt," "Tired," and the Robert Fripp-derived "A Study of Six Guitars," while "Slider" and "Kai" ensure a fluid transition between ISDN's merging dynamics.
Recorded live at Earthbeat Studios, London, England in 1994.
Composer: The Future Sound of London.
Personnel: Robert Fripp (guitar); John Williams , John Williams (bass programming).
Recording information: EarthBeat Studios, London, England (1994).Option (3-4/95, p.104) - "...Future Sound Of London [FSOL] seems to have gotten the mix just right. Even more minimal than the Orb, FSOL builds its pieces in layers, electronically generating a nice range of textures that are more ominous than polished. Beats come and go, as do a number of sounds that seem like they may be more at home on an arcade game..." NME (Magazine) (12/10/94, p.44) - 8 (out of 10) - "...has more bite and more energy [than LIFEFORMS], possibly as a result of being performed live...the ideal soundtrack for going surfing around the rings of Saturn or hang-gliding through the methane clouds of Jupiter..."

$13.79 (MP3 Available for Download) Continuing his stroll through pop's backpages, Rod Stewart moves on from "The Great Rock Classics of Our Time" and dives into the SOULBOOK, shorthand for all the great Motown and soul songs that still are in heavy rotation on oldies radio well into the new millennium. Rod doesn't spend much time with the soul and blues singers so influential on him, choosing instead to run through a bunch of Motown hits - a full six of the 13 songs here are from the Motor City ...

Isdn music CDs
$11.99 (MP3 Available for Download) Timothy B Schmit launched his solo career late - in 1984, after the Eagles disbanded and right in the thick of the era of shiny, synthesized production. Schmit released three solo albums, all big and glossy, between 1984 and 1991, then reunited with the Eagles in '94, so he never quite had a chance to record an album as relaxed and natural as 2009's EXPANDO. Ditching all the sheen, but not professional panache, ...
| | Shakira She Wolf CD (2009)
Isdn songs
$14.39 Shakira's brand new English album She Wolf is an uptempo pop album. It is all about synthesizers and electronic concepts, all mixed with the world sounds that we are used to from Shakira.. sounds from countries like India, the Middle East and her home country of Colombia. She Wolf features a predominantly English track list with a follow up album of new and unique repertoire in Spanish to come in 2010. The title track "She-Wolf " boasts the infectious and energizing sound that made Shakira a household name, with a slightly more dancey/ electronic beat (about 125 beats per minute). Though most tracks on the upcoming album will be in English, Shakira chose to service the Spanish version of the first single, "Loba", two weeks before the English single is launched.
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 ...

| | Faris Nourallah King Of Sweden CD (2005)
Isdn MP3 Album
$13.25 On his third solo album, Texas-based singer/songwriter Faris Nourallah claims to have crafted a narrative song cycle based on a central character, a disillusioned and disenfranchised teenager. The "story" is as hard to suss out as that of such classic supposed concept albums as Hüsker Dü's Zen Arcade (or for that matter, Green Day's American Idiot), but it's of little importance. This brief but musically rich 13-track album is a varied and delightful journey through a variety of indie folk and arty pop styles. After starting with a batch of songs in the John Vanderslice or Elliott Smith tradition of weedy singer/songwriterisms, there's a montage of brief songs in the album's center, fading in and out of each other within a minute or so each, that sounds oddly like the free-form art rock of Soft Machine's Volume Two, even down to the fact that when Nourallah sings in falsetto, he sounds strikingly like Robert Wyatt. That fades into "Guiding Light," which sounds like a dream collaboration between the High Llamas and Canadian art pop cult hero John Southworth, which then transforms into a glorious, dreamy piece of piano-based chamber pop called "I Run Faster Than You Can," which might be ...
