| | Nitin Sawhney Philtre CD - Import Nitin Sawhney Discography of CDs
A multi-talented figure in the U.K. electronica scene, Nitin Sawhney is known for his unique fusions of dance, South Asian folk and classical forms, jazz, and trip-hop. From 2005, PHILTRE finds him absorbing Latin American sounds into his panorama for moods and textures both ecstatic and contemplative.
Over the last two years, multi award-winning Nitin Sawhney has gigged extensively with his live band, DJed for some of the hottest clubnights on the planet, scored numerous films across Europe, Asia, and America, and written/performed for internationally acclaimed orchestras. Ultimately Sawhney comes back to his first love - to present the workings of his deepest thoughts and feelings in the context of his most exciting album to date, Philtre. Philtre is a radical departure and movement on from his previous work. This is a journey that builds in pace and tempo, progressively revealing some of the most awe-inspiring vocal performances and instrumentation imaginable. From the dark, moody, and evocative opening tracks Everything and Spark, through the rich vocal textures of Mausam and Journey, to the rhythmic and emotionally charged sounds of Ojos de Brujo and R&B vocalist Taio, Sawhney expertly navigates the most volatile musical territories to create an unprecedented mixture of sonic brilliance. Inspired by the energy that comes from countless nights of performing in front of vast and varied crowds around the world, Philtre reaches deep into the soul - to challenge, inspire, and provoke. Featured artists include: Reena Bhardwaj, Jacob Golden, Tina Grace, Fink, Sharon Duncan, Saroj Sawhney, Vikter Duplaix, Taio, Ojos de Brujo, and Jayanta Bose.Search and deploy. V2. 2005.

Philtre music CDs
$10.49
WORLD WIDE UNDERGROUND was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best R&B Album. "Back In The Day" was nominated for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance. "Danger" was nominated for Best Urban/Alternative Performance and for Best R&B Song.
Despite being classified as an EP, the near 50-minute length of WORLD WIDE UNDERGROUND makes it closer to being Erykah Badu's fourth full-length outing. Inspired by the Frustrated Artist Tour that found this Texan crisscrossing the world in 2002, Badu uses a very groove-oriented and loosely defined approach towards these songs, thanks to the collaborative skills of her fellow members in the Freakquency team--James Poyser, Rashad "Ringo" Smith, and RC Williams.
The results range from the light and sensual flow of "Back in the Day," (featuring some crisp guitar licks by ...
| | Goldfrapp Black Cherry CD (2003)
Philtre songs
$9.95 
A striking departure from Goldfrapp's well-received, cinematically atmospheric debut, FELT MOUNTAIN, 2003's BLACK CHERRY finds the British electronica duo cutting loose with a more energetic and dynamic set. The approach allows vocalist Alison Goldfrapp to indulge her inner Debbie Harry, while multi-instrumentalist Will Gregory playfully nods to 1980s synth-pop on saucy, percolating tunes such as "Crystalline Green" and "Train." Though many of BLACK CHERRY's tracks are geared toward the dance ...

| | Supervielle CD (2004)
Philtre CD music
$12.05 
The Bajofondo Tango Club, whose mix of electro-acoustic nuevo tango is fascinating, seems to be trying to set itself up as a sort of young, hip version of Cuba's Buena Vista Social Club with this solo release from youngest member Luciano Supervielle. It's an odd disc, with several wisps of tango in tracks like "Decollage" and "Perfume" or "Tanogodrome," but ambitions toward classical, hip-hop and also downbeat electronica. As such, it's not a disc that gets in your face, but floats gently and lovingly in the background, with enchanting melodies and arrangements -- a bit more than background, but not enough to claim attention for its entire span. Also included is a second disc of remixes, and as usual, they're a mixed bag. Androval's take on "Miles de Pasajeros" comes close to house and garage in its thumping bass, while Omar takes the same tunes and brings it into hip-hop noir. Calvi & Neill have three runs at "Perfume," ranging from a lovely version that ...
| | Stevie Nicks Rock A Little CD (1985)
Philtre music CDs
$14.35
At the time of its 1985 release, Stevie Nicks's ROCK A LITTLE was greeted with some critical puzzlement, and it was less commercially successful than her previous solo records, scoring only one hit single, the Top 5 "Talk to Me." In retrospect, although the distinctively mid-'80s production dates the album somewhat, this is one of Nicks's most personally revealing and heartfelt sets of songs since the musical diary entries of Fleetwood Mac's RUMOURS. Nicks's personal life at this point was getting nearly as much press as her music--her battles with drugs were becoming public knowledge--and it's hard to separate the two in songs as seemingly revealing as "I Can't Wait" and "The Nightmare." The closing piano ballad, "Has Anyone Ever Written Anything for You," which Nicks sings in her lived-in voice, is one of her finest performances.

| | Version City CD (1997)
Philtre songs
$16.49
On this compilation, several ska artists collaborate to map the earliest sounds of the style's movement. There is no shortage of ska albums to date, but Version City is an exemplary one. Tracks such as "Motel Room" by Lord Sluggo and "Cocaine" by Lord Sluggo and the Demanders are two cuts in a block of lo-fi, steadily rocking tracks; the two send shivers down one's spine, urging one to play them over and over. Further along in this well-ordered collection is a sub-tropical jubilance from Ua Hele Kakou, Crazy Baldhead, and Gravity as the island and two-tone sounds mix. Also ...
