| | Crash Soundtrack CD (1 Customer Review)
One of the highest-profile film composers in the business, Mark Isham has built an impressive, lengthy resume that shows off his range, taste, and remarkable talent with orchestrations and arrangements. His soundtrack to the 2005 film CRASH ... Full Descriptionis no exception. Isham describes his creation as a "bedroom recording," and the moody, textured music does, in fact, have the introspection and intimacy of something composed in a small, artistically charged space.
Sequencers and synthesizers dominate here, giving rise to pieces that veer from the delicately ambient to pulsing pattern music. The metronomic rhythms of "Siren," for example, help create tension as much as "A Really Good Cloak"-- the lilting, atmospheric track that follows--relieves it. Several tracks--"...Safe Now;" "Saint Christopher"--employ a female voice that unfurls beautifully operatic, Middle Eastern-flavored vocals, creating a spooky, human tapestry that recalls, at times, Peter Gabriel's PASSION. With its mixture of ethereal timbres and taut rhythm-scapes, CRASH is a compelling listen from beginning to end, and weighs in as another fine addition to Isham's discography

Crash Soundtrack Music Review Purchase Crash Soundtrack CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Bryan Ferry Boys And Girls CD (1985) Remastered
Crash Soundtrack album
 $11.89   
All tracks have been digitally remastered using HDCD technology.
Ferry's first solo effort since the second breakup of Roxy Music is arguably his best, in part because it continues in the direction the band had been going. It's like AVALON, only more so.
Here, Ferry's lounge lizard affectations are writ large; the lyrical pose is all bruised romantic fatalism (say hello, "Slave to Love"), and the music fits it like a glove. The album's ...

Crash Soundtrack music CDs
$12.35 
I REMEMBER MILES won the 1999 Grammy Award for Best Jazz Vocal Performance.
This stunning album is Shirley Horn's loving tribute to her friend and colleague, the legendary late Miles Davis. Davis was so taken by Horn's first album EMBERS AND ASHES that he forced The Village Vanguard to let her virtually-unknown trio open for him during his 1961 run there. Their friendship and admiration for each other's music lasted through the years, and Shirley Horn's 1991 recording YOU WON'T FORGET ME, was one of the last recordings Miles Davis made.
Horn selected mostly ballads from Davis' Columbia Records catalogue for her tribute because, as she explains in the liner notes, Davis liked her to sing ballads, and ballads are Horn's specialty. She can slow down time in a unique and spellbinding way. Her sultry and smoky vocals are intimate and conversational, relying on odd metered timing and silence, rather than volume, to make an emotional point.

| | VH1 Presents The Corrs Live In Dublin CD (2002)
Crash Soundtrack songs
$6.39 
This audio document of The Corrs' Dublin homecoming concert has pretty much everything fans of Irish pop could wish for, including an appearance from Bono in his earthly incarnation, fresh from an audience with President George W. Bush. It's to the band's credit that the charismatic singer fails to steal the show, despite creditable efforts via an anthemized version of Ryan Adams' beautifully downtempo "When the Stars Go Blue," and a great, leering rendition of Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra's "Summer Wine."
Somewhat more mysteriously, Rolling Stone Ron Wood also turns up on what sounds dangerously close to a lounge version of Jimi Hendrix's "Little Wing," but this minor faux pas is redeemed by the Irish folk medley "Joy of Life/Trout in the Bath" which arguably features more full-on Irishness than the Dublin production of RIVERDANCE. There's also a lovely rendition of Neil Young's ...
| | Dredg Catch Without Arms CD (2005)
Crash Soundtrack album
$8.55
Early on, critics often described Dredg as a metal group. However, the quartet has since matured into a hard-edged indie-rock ensemble that seeks diversity and refinement in its music. On CATCH WITHOUT ARMS, the band favors highly orchestrated parts, dense guitar riffs, and powerful drumming. Each song is based around memorable vocal hooks and sensitive lyrical content.
Many tracks on CATCH WITHOUT ARMS have a searching quality to them. Despite the sheer force of the music, this release is ultimately marked by well constructed melodies and intriguing harmonic ...
