| | Ulrich Schnauss Goodbye CD Ulrich Schnauss Discography of CDs
If the guitar-based shoegaze sound of '90s indie acts like Chapterhouse and Slowdive had their electronic equivalent, it might as well be Germany's Ulrich Schnauss. On his third album, GOODBYE, Schnauss reimagines the shimmering, melodic textures ... Full Descriptionof dreampop as blissed-out synthetic symphonies. Favoring either subtle beats or a metronomic pulse as the backdrop for his ethereal compositions, Schnauss builds up a wistful, starkly beautiful soundscape daubed in washes of hazy reverb effects. Adding subtle layer upon subtle layer to achieve a sonic cohesiveness, GOODBYE is imbued with a warmth and emotional resonance that's rarely found in electronic music.
Personnel: Ulrich Schnauss (sampler); Aidan Banks, Matt Dabbs (vocals); Judith Beck, Doug March, Rob McVey (guitar).
Spin (p.106) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he wafting synths evoke fog rolling in from the sea on an overcast autumn afternoon." Magnet (p.106) - "Every track is densely packed with icy electronic washes, buzzes and simulations, with occasional splashes of guitar and ghostly, buried vocal melodies." CMJ (p.39) - "Peeling back each tier of psychedelic guitar, undulating synths and even whooshing quietude reveals a core of warmth and humanity that's intrinsic to the record's theme..."

Purchase Goodbye CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Boards Of Canada Geogaddi CD (2002)
Goodbye album
$14.99 Tracks alternate between short experiments in abstract ambience and longer, more loop-centric conceptualizing. Like the glowing orange fractal on the cover, sounds coalesce into beautiful patterns with geometric precision, and there's lots of numerical symbolism for math fans to ponder in GEODADDI's 66:06 minutes. While BoC's first album seemed ensconced in the security of a cozy kindergarten, GEOGADDI captures something of the terrors of leaving that world for the blinding sunshine of first grade, with track names like "Beware the Friendly Stranger" "A Is to B as B Is to C," and "Music Is Math." While not as immediately lulling as one might imagine, GEOGADDI has an inherent magic that kicks in with a vengeance after it's had time to soak into listeners' heads.
Highly anticipated new album features 23 tracks. Warp Records.
For their sophomore long-player, reclusive Scots Boards of Canada depart slightly from the rainy-day psyche-tronica of their much-lauded 1998 release, MUSIC HAS THE RIGHT TO CHILDREN. Here the emphasis is as much on beats as atmosphere, but the duo's undeniable genius for conjuring up a sweet nostalgia ...
| | Ulrich Schnauss Strangely Isolated Place CD (2004) Bonus Tracks
Goodbye CD music
$11.69 This sophomore release from Ulrich Schnauss displays the German producer/composer's ability to create ambient tapestries, replete with shimmering keyboard effects and lush chordal variety. But what makes this release unique is Schnauss's penchant for warm melodies and pop-influenced refrains. Here Schnauss forges his own voice, blending together the imagistic vistas of Brian Eno with pop structures and experimental techno grooves. The title track features a scintillating Theremin melody singing high above the keyboard accompaniment, while "Clear Day" is a paean to the UK ensemble ...

| | National Boxer CD (2007)
Goodbye CD music
$10.15 And while his presence isn't immediately apparent, indie hero Sufjan Stevens contributes piano to two tracks ("Racing Like a Pro" and "Ada"), adding to the National's increasingly expansive aesthetic, which also incorporates strings and horns. Though BOXER is more subdued than ALLIGATOR, it will likely appeal to those won over by the earlier outing.
On 2007's BOXER, the National's second full-length album for the venerable Beggars Banquet label, the Brooklyn-based indie-rock act follows up the lauded ALLIGATOR with another round of melancholy guitar-driven tunes. Led by deep-voiced vocalist Matt Berninger, who often sounds hung-over yet disarmingly ...

$10.15 Extreme metal quintet the Red Chord hail from Massachusetts, where they have established a reputation as one of the fiercest acts in the region. PREY FOR EYES, the band's third studio release, ups the ante on their pummeling blend of grindcore, black metal, and hardcore.
