| | Madredeus Faluas Do Tejo CD Madredeus Discography of CDs
After a remix album that featured collaborations with celebrated electronica acts (including Manitoba and Telepopmusik), Portugal's Madredeus returned to a more organic sound for 2005's FALUAS DO TEJO. Here Teresa Salgueiro's high, clear voice perfectly complements the lilting music, which is steeped in delicate acoustic-guitar lines (courtesy of key members Jose Peixoto and Pedro Ayres Magalhaes) and light synthesizer textures. The opening song, "Lisboa, Rainha Do Mar," conjures up a gently swaying nautical atmosphere, while "Fado Das Duvidas" is a beautifully melancholy example of the traditional "fado" style. A quiet, pensive mood pervades the record, as revealed on the gorgeous, waltz-like title track and the achingly emotive "Cais Distante." Bossa nova and flamenco accents also drift through on occasion, making this an album that can't be pigeonholed by one Latin style. For a wonderful example of roots-minded Portuguese music with a subtle modern flair, Madredeus's FALUAS DO TEJO is ideal.
Madredeus: Teresa Salgueiro (vocals); José Peixoto, Pedro Ayres Magalhaes (guitar); Carlos Maria Trindade (synthesizer); Fernando Judice (acoustic bass guitar).

| | Prodigy Fat Of The Land CD (1997)
Faluas Do Tejo CD music
$9.79 
FAT OF THE LAND was nominated for a 1998 Grammy for Best Rock Album.
Among the most anticipated releases of 1997, The Prodigy's third full-length album is a bulldozing rock-techno hybrid. But while the guitar/samples/hyper-beats mosaic that made "Firestarter" an MTV breakout are found in every nook and cranny of this album, the overall building blocks are far more diverse, making it a tangible melting pot of pre-millennium pop styles.
There's a definite hip-hop element here. "Diesel Power," which features quality mic control by Kool Keith (of Ultramagnetic MCs and Dr. Octagon fame), is new-style hip-hop sculpture, applying techno and acid-house textures to apocalyptic ends. Both "Funky Shit" and "Smack My Bitch Up" are throbbing dance-floor ejaculations wrapped around, respectively, Beastie Boys and De La Soul refrains. Kula Shaker's Crispin ...
| | Four Horsemen Gettin' Pretty Good...At Barely Gettin' By CD (1996)
Faluas Do Tejo music CDs
$9.59 
The Four Horsemen were quite literally a shattered band come 1996. Five years on from their simplistic but infectious retro-rock debut, they'd been dropped by Def American, been abandoned by their main songwriter guiding force in founding guitarist Haggis, and, most heartbreaking of all, lost drummer Ken "Dimwit" Montgomery to a drug overdose. As the band's last remaining original members, it came down to guitarist Dave Lizmi and troubled singer Frank C. Starr (more on him later) to assemble a new lineup and attempt to shoulder the load themselves on the snidely named Gettin' Pretty Good at Barely Gettin' By. And they did an OK job. The album still featured much of the Four Horsemen's stripped-down, hard-rocking style, but standout cuts such as "Hot Rod" and the poignant "Song for Absent Friends" generally lacked the Southern Skynyrd flavor, and especially the power boogie AC/DC crunch of old. Instead, the album mostly resorted to a mellower, more soulful, decidedly sleeker Black Crowes-type groove for tracks like the title song and "Drunk Again" (note background lady singers). A few songs also forced the "we're still rockin"' storyline ad nauseam (see cheesy opener "Still Alive and Well" and the edgier, ...

$22.95
This 2CD set brings you the best tracks that merge R&B and Asian elements. Club sounds from Asia penetrated Western music most prevalently with the emergence of drum n bass in the UK, along with atmospheric trip hop laced with sitar-loops & hip hop with bhangra-samples. The sounds ...
| | Massive Attack Protection CD (1994)
Faluas Do Tejo CD music
$11.95 
Bristol's trip-hop pioneers crystallize their melancholic splendor on PROTECTION. It's a simmering shadow of a soundtrack to urban life, where dub, hip-hop, electronica and soul mesh into something quite singular. Imagine the chilling threnody of scene-mates Portishead allied with rough dancehall, club and South Bronx bass-beats, set ablaze by Mushroom, 3-D and Daddy-G's sour gaze into the millennial horizon. A host of fine guest vocalists help drive the vocal tunes, in turn making the instrumentals stand out all the more.
It is a juxtaposition of cold and hot, alienation and unity, that informs PROTECTION. Tracey Thorn of Everything But The Girl steals the show with her sure, silky vocals on the title track, her voice a sweet fire that thrives in a frosty wind, just barely anchored by the entrancing swirl of wah-guitar, strings and phased keyboard drones. Old-school reggae favorite Horace Andy tears up "Spying Glass" with a haunting lilt over the house-dub beat. "Sly" evokes the icy landscapes of Bjork's late-'90s work, albeit ...
| | Rock On 1984 CD (1996)
Faluas Do Tejo music CDs
$8.79
Each volume of Excelsior's Rock On series provides an extremely arbitrary snapshot of the year that's being covered. Only 12 songs are on each disc, meaning that a good amount of space goes to waste, and there's little in the way of stylistic focus. Needless to say, these hastily patched-together budget-line discs shouldn't be considered suitable documentations for the years they are covering. Rock On: 1984 includes John Waite's "Missing You," Dan Hartman's "I Can Dream About You," Chaka Khan's "I Feel for You," Pat Benatar's ...
