 (2 Customer Reviews)
On her striking 2007 debut, FUR AND GOLD, British/Pakistani singer-songwriter Natasha Khan, aka Bat for Lashes, unveils a confident and eclectic set of indie-pop songs. Like a female counterpart to Irish wunderkind Patrick Wolf, Khan gilds her tunes with lush, moody arrangements that heighten their drama and establish an ornate, goth-tinged atmosphere (see the urgent, harpsichord-led opening track, "Horse and I," and "What's a Girl to Do," a haunting tale of heartbreak). A fully formed first outing that garnered Khan a Mercury Prize nomination, FUR AND GOLD marks the arrival of a significant new U.K. talent, and will easily appeal to aficionados of emotive chamber-pop.

Fur And Gold
 $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 ...

Fur And Gold
$11.89 
Favorably compared to the Flaming Lips, Mercury Rev, and Broken Social Scene, the Arcade Fire's sound seems to come from a lifetime of listening to the Cure, Talking Heads, Elvis Costello, and many others--even a dose of soul gets worked into these grand anthems. Chassagne delivers some ...

Jim Black, guitar, electronicsBen Wilson, drum machine, electronicsJess Conn-Potegal, turntables, keys, electronics Three individuals from different musical backgrounds, each with his own unique vision, meet at an Otomo Yoshihide/Ruins concert and the resultant collision becomes Broken Record Chamber. BRC ploughs a new sound field, through which meanders various sonic life forms, not excluding the patrons of the Epic hole-in-the-wall, The Sugar Refinery, where much of this was recorded. Imagine, if you can, a garage band version of Otomo chucking a used record store down the stairs.Broken Record Chamber was inaugurated in September 1998, barely moments after the smoke and debris were cleared in the wake of a momentous double bill featuring Otomo Yoshihide, Martin Tetrault and Ruins. Since that time Broken Record Chamber have participated in the Taking Wing Improvised Music Series, and have performed live over the air waves from the studios of Vancouver's cooperative radio station (CFRO). They have also been prominently featured on CBC Radio's 'Brave New Waves.'Like true grandchildren of McLuhan, BRC are at home in the global village, where instant access to all things electric is the norm. Drawing from acid jazz funk to pop rock, from punk to ambient electronic to improvisation, and from large ensemble jazz to 20th century classical, the diverse and combined talents of Jim Black, Jess Conn-Potegal and Ben Wilson have coalesced into a categorical no-man's land: an urban/environmental, signal-to-noise, DIY improv-ambient adventure kit. What the critics are saying; ... these animated improvisations have a vitality that is often excluded by the term 'sound art.' Four live tracks, including the 19 minute 'French Reggae Strangulation', reveal how the trio's fractious constructions and prickly textures thrive in concert performance.Julian Cowley, The WireThis is the sound of the world coming undone, its frayed fabrics sizzling on a griddle of electrical noise; the sound of a postneutron future in which the streets are empty but the machines play on. Eerily dark and compelling, Free Improv for Robots conjures up the kind of drugged lassitude in which the scrape of the needle scratching ...
