| | Tortoise Millions Now Living Will Never Die CD (1996)
Sleeping People CD music
$15.05  
At once dimly settled and quietly driving, Tortoise's second album is afloat in contradictions. The group's "songs," all instrumental, are entirely about moods--marrying open-ended, dub-infected grooves with delays and other studio effects, pouring on vibraphone and marimbas, and electronically discombobulating the rhythms to create a sort of chill-out music birthed at the bottom of the ocean. But even their calmest modes offer a propulsiveness missing from much atmospheric music. Call it beat-wise ambient, if you must.
Yet even that simplification doesn't do justice to this album's expansive, anything-goes audio imagery. Multiple, thread-like textures interconnect in Tortoise's pieces, and dilate to become backdrops for the movie scenes of bizarre dreams--ranging from lonesome, psychedelically-charged Sergio Leone westerns to glued whirlpools of Ralph Bakshi's outer worlds, all in dimly lit Technicolor. MILLIONS NOW LIVING is among the first albums designed to soothe your nerves in the 21st century, and to do so ...

| | Mogwai Happy Songs For Happy People CD (2003) Enhanced CD
Sleeping People songs
$19.29 
Of all the bands emerging in the mid-'90s who were labeled "post-rock," Scotland's Mogwai always seemed to be one of the closest to (gasp) an actual rock band. While their third album ROCK ACTION showed them edging ever closer to rockdom, with more conventional song structures and vocals, the follow-up is a hearty about-face. HAPPY SONGS FOR HAPPY PEOPLE is one of the band's more atmospheric efforts.
Whereas the band's early sound was often defined by angular, hypnotic guitar riffs a la Slint, HAPPY SONGS is full of dreamy, ambient electronic textures that wouldn't sound out of place on, say, a Spiritualized album. There is the occasional vocal, but voices (like everything else) are used purely as texture here. The tracks occasionally build to powerful crescendos, but for the most part, this is a mesmerizing, meditative effort suggestive of autumnal introspection and long walks through twilight forests. Is that post-rock enough for you?
The fourth album from Glasgow's kings of glowering, volatile quasi-instrumental rock is subtler than their previous work, compositionally beautiful but intense and trance-inducing at the same time. 9 tracks. Matador. 2003.
Recorded at Cava Studios, Glasgow, Scotland.

| | Spoon Gimme Fiction CD (2005)
Sleeping People album
$12.99
Spoon are purveyors of a stylish brand of indie rock bearing equal doses of sexy attitude and immediately accessible songcraft. GIMME FICTION has a fair bit in common with 2002's KILL THE MOONLIGHT, synthesizing influences that include everyone from the Beatles to Pavement into an appealing, soulful package. Yet GIMME FICTION is decidedly more polished and intimate than its predecessor, and it boasts a stronger batch of songs. There are dashes of retro mood, too. The opener, "The Beast and Dragon, Adored," has the feel of a minor-key glam epic on the order of David Bowie or Marc Bolan, while the chiming, harmony-heavy "Sister Jack" recalls the high-flying folk-rock of the Byrds.
For the most part, Spoon turns down the guitars on this album, in favor of clean, gentle melodicism. The beautiful "I Summon You," for example, centers on a strummed acoustic guitar and a thumping drum beat to summon its nostalgic, romantic theme. Pop hooks--the Austin, TX band's strongest suit--abound on the swaying melody of "Two Sides/Monsieur Valentine" (complete with accompanying strings), the falsetto-graced groove of "I Turn My Camera On," and the ...

| | Skinny Puppy Greater Wrong Of The Right CD (2004)
Sleeping People music CDs
$10.15
Its rumored demise having been somewhat exaggerated, Skinny Puppy returns after an eight-year layoff with as poppy and melodic an album as an industrial band worthy of the name can produce. Nivek Ogre's vocals are nearly distortion-free and Cevin Key's dancefloor-ready production is positively smooth compared to the band's previous effort, 1996's THE PROCESS.
The socially conscious Canadian noise rockers take several pages out of the Nine Inch Nails playbook with a collection of hooky, practically listener-friendly tracks such as "I'mmortal," with its guileless "Just looking for something" chorus, and "Use Less," which sports an atmospheric, futuristic ambience. It's left up to the death-disco groove of songs "EmpTe," "Past Present," and the post-industrial wasteland tale "Neuwerld" to recall the band's fierce 1980s roots. While Skinny Puppy's sound could never exactly be called lightweight, THE GREATER WRONG OF THE RIGHT signals something of a smoothing-out of rough edges. But the presence of tracks such as "DaddyuWarbash" means the group never totally abandons its signature menace--or its love of intimidating anti-war songs.
"The Greater Wrong Of The Right" is a breathtaking continuation of the path that the band had embarked on with The Process. The experiments of the past few years have not been forgotten or faded out: in their condensed, highly energetic form ...

| | Tall Dwarfs Weeville CD (1990)
Sleeping People CD music
$13.85
Although it was released in 1990, nearly a decade after the duo of Chris Knox and Alec Bathgate first started recording as a duo following the implosion of their pioneering New Zealand new wave band, Toy Love, WEEVILLE was the first full-length Tall Dwarfs album. After nine years' worth of EPs and singles (some collected on the 1987 anthology HELLO CRUEL WORLD), the 16-track WEEVILLE sounds positively expansive, but Knox and Bathgate stick with their by-now-familiar lo-fi blend of experimental noise, quirky instrumentals, and twisted pop songs. Highlights include "Skin of My Teeth," ...
