It needs to be done once more, but overall impression is more than positive. <br /><br /><a href="http://www.garageband.com/song?|pe1|S8LTM0LdsaShZFCwZWE">song's site</a>galaktycznyzwiadhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12584534318661817266noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-969932964477478115.post-86689661786959358652010-06-15T06:04:00.000-07:002010-06-15T06:09:56.158-07:00a_forced_fixed_image - Distressed Little Lamb<a href="http://images.garageband.com/image/gb_images/%7Cpe2%7C21C770F82ADA5C253281D63EF329D1404C7EDDBF3187E5C1F27766833EFD0B4A54A66FCD45A0849C59353D1075F7BD0257EEDB6BEE?nocache=1276607290.426191"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 150px;" src="http://images.garageband.com/image/gb_images/%7Cpe2%7C21C770F82ADA5C253281D63EF329D1404C7EDDBF3187E5C1F27766833EFD0B4A54A66FCD45A0849C59353D1075F7BD0257EEDB6BEE?nocache=1276607290.426191" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />Rate:4/5<br /><br />Nice<br />It is both engaging and disturbing sound collage, taking it all back to the days of glory of SPK or Psychic TV. The production is pretty neat and arrangements are deminic, so one must like it, if one like this particular genre, of course. The mood is pretty depressive and abstract, but basically...

The timing in sequencing is quite well synchronized, and although this is a bit experimental it's not boring. I loved the end of it, with a children song. That was pretty catchy. The whole tune sounds like some PTV or SPK trip, and I must say it's quite enjoyable.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.garageband.com/song?|pe1|S8LTM0LdsaShYlC1ZG4">song's site</a>galaktycznyzwiadhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12584534318661817266noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-969932964477478115.post-7862164565363452892010-05-25T03:59:00.000-07:002010-05-25T04:03:49.488-07:00The Phantom Carriage – Skull exposed to March rain<a href="http://www.svcrecords.co.uk/images/l_slv_phantom_skull.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 250px; height: 250px;" src="http://www.svcrecords.co.uk/images/l_slv_phantom_skull.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />Rate:9/10<br /><br />This is quite <a href="http://www.svcrecords.co.uk/artist_phantom.html">an extra ordinary release</a>. I do like the way it was edited – with four pages of extra artwork and very decent cover it is a thing that invites you warmly to listen to. The music itself is also a bit out-of-there. There are nice, lyrical ambient, spoken word voyages, overlaps with the folk songs reminding me of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Will_Oldham">Bonnie Prince Billy</a>. It’s hard to put the album into a genre, but I suppose that’s the way the beauty of it comes. Personally, I prefer the folk ones ober the electronica, so I will distinguish a cappella <em>Blood</em>, and a very sentimental <em>Hawthorn Tree</em>, however one cannot neglect the rest, especially a nine-minutes long <em>Folly</em>, very much in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_glass">Philip Glass</a>/David Bowie collaboration style with a country guitar twist or extremely psychedelic Three Wishes. Well... electronica covers most of the album, with its end being a very <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M83_(band)">M83</a> Skull exposed to March rain. It is skillful and neatly produced, but I’ll wait for the whole folk The Phantom Carriage album – really, they can’t be wromg there.<br /><br />Stay cool,<br /><br />gz.galaktycznyzwiadhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12584534318661817266noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-969932964477478115.post-14112925436373954802010-05-21T05:16:00.000-07:002010-05-21T05:20:51.388-07:00Sonic aliance - EngageRate:4/5<br /><br />There is something poppy about it<br />Which is not bad.

It is a song - it's melodical, vocals are good and it has a nice choir in the chorus, there is a bridge, decent verses, everything.

It is created by an evergreen NIN or even MM formula, but it does engage a listener. Distorted vocals annoy a bit here, but if a skillful producer worked on it, we would have something really industrial instead of Cher like vocals (it's just for some seconds, but still it spoils a mood). Regardless of these little drawbacks, the composition impresses as a really recommendable thing.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.garageband.com/song?|pe1|S8LTM0LdsaShY1CzZ2A">song's site</a>galaktycznyzwiadhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12584534318661817266noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-969932964477478115.post-7388426977785825192010-05-06T00:17:00.000-07:002010-05-06T00:24:38.973-07:00Lord Numb – Comfortably Numb EP<a href="http://dedpop.com/cache/acc3f23717ba2769a8fa5e3c5c0932e6_w250_h250.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 250px; height: 250px;" src="http://dedpop.com/cache/acc3f23717ba2769a8fa5e3c5c0932e6_w250_h250.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />Rate:9/10<br /><br />Now, that’s <a href="http://dedpop.com/ded005">an EP</a> to cherish! I did like all the tracks there, beginning from extremely New Order like <em>A question mark for a face</em> through even more similar <em>Stackridge</em> and experimentally ambiental <em>A song for the numb </em>to electro clashing <em>Webcore, webcore</em>. The whole album has a great dose of self-consciousness musical irony, a quite professional production and catchy riffs (unfortunately, it’s quite minimal, so no melodies). The only drawback I sense here is lack of vocals. I think lyrics and a good singer would give compositions a more complicated texture and greatly enhance the overall quality. By this only my humble opinion, of course. Also, the cover being nice and not hideous, taking under consideration the growing standards of netlabel design it is somewhat cliche. My overall impression, however is more than positive.<br />BTW – the album is released under the banner of <a href="http://dedpop.com/">dedpop</a>, a very interesting, rock-folk-indie oriented netlabel worth checking out. I think in the nearest future I will report more both on Lord and the netlabel. <br /><br />take care,<br /><br />gz.galaktycznyzwiadhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12584534318661817266noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-969932964477478115.post-258753987905115832010-05-01T23:57:00.000-07:002010-05-01T23:59:58.936-07:00FANOE - Only you<a href="http://images.garageband.com/image/gb_images/%7Cpe2%7C21C770F82ADA5F233687D03EF329D1404C7EDDBF3187E5C1F27766833EFD0B4A54A66FCD45A0849C59353D1075F7BD0257EEDB6BEE?nocache=1272783520.743413"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 150px;" src="http://images.garageband.com/image/gb_images/%7Cpe2%7C21C770F82ADA5F233687D03EF329D1404C7EDDBF3187E5C1F27766833EFD0B4A54A66FCD45A0849C59353D1075F7BD0257EEDB6BEE?nocache=1272783520.743413" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />Rate:4/5<br /><br />An interesting song<br />This one has a lot of rock energy in it.

EP consists of six, rather short (3 minutes, 4 the longest) compositions in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autechre">Autechre</a> and generally <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warp_Records">warp records </a>based style. My favourite tune here is <em>Jnry Crush</em>, which very neatly combines abstract samples with composition and <em>Offsediment</em>, when the breaking really takes place. Everything is quite nice and decent about this record, and if one likes that genre he will enjoy this EP. The shame about distributing it is that you got the record cover only after downloading the whole, so visual guys may simply ignore the release and the net-label as well. Apart from that it is a recommendable album, truly a chalenging, but rewarding thing to listen to.<br /><br />take care,<br /><br />gz.galaktycznyzwiadhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12584534318661817266noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-969932964477478115.post-14226142223687676242010-04-20T08:48:00.000-07:002010-04-20T08:49:04.350-07:00New review of our song on garagebandINCREIBLE<br />Amigos, que calidad tan lograda, los felicito.

The beat is trip-hop, and the girl's voice is just sweet as honey. The melody gently flows, taking the listener into moody but catchy piece of very neatly produced music. It's quite useless to speak about what's hot and what's not in this piece, because it's almost perfect. I loved the lead vocals - the singer definitely has a big talent. She doesn't have to sing in all pitches to create the atmosphere - and that counts a lot. All the samples, keyboards and the beat are also very professionally produced. A composition is also interesting. There are two breaks (1:10 I believe, and a similar one around 1:55) than creates a dramaturgy of the record. Overall it's a strong proposal for an underground hit. I like more darker side of trip-hop (if you know Tricky records than you know what I mean), but that track is also undoubtedly recommendable.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.garageband.com/song?|pe1|S8LTM0LdsaSiYVCzZG4">song's site</a>galaktycznyzwiadhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12584534318661817266noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-969932964477478115.post-28093665614467918752010-03-31T08:10:00.000-07:002010-03-31T08:12:55.689-07:00The Metronomus Project - Took Away<a href="http://images.garageband.com/image/gb_images/%7Cpe2%7C21C770F82ADA5C233F89D23EF329D1404C7EDDBF3187E5C1F27766833EFD0B4A54A66FCD45A0849C59353D1075F7BD0257EEDB6BEE?nocache=1270048312.353652"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 150px;" src="http://images.garageband.com/image/gb_images/%7Cpe2%7C21C770F82ADA5C233F89D23EF329D1404C7EDDBF3187E5C1F27766833EFD0B4A54A66FCD45A0849C59353D1075F7BD0257EEDB6BEE?nocache=1270048312.353652" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />Rate:4/5<br />nice but not extraordinary<br />This is a very good draft to a composition. A riff and rhythm section is more than okay, but the composition itself it's not really elaborated. The production is almost perfect (I would work on the bass), but still... Where's the chorus and some changes in the mood of the tune (some samples, perhaps?).<br /><br /><a href="http://www.garageband.com/song?|pe1|S8LTM0LdsaShYVG_a2s">song's site</a>galaktycznyzwiadhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12584534318661817266noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-969932964477478115.post-20673602730339544292010-03-26T12:40:00.000-07:002010-03-26T12:43:01.837-07:00Zodiac - End to Chivalry<a href="http://images.garageband.com/image/gb_images/%7Cpe2%7C30C970FB2ADF55223589D53EF52E990F4F6B99F72C9CD3DBDE4174832CD60A5748A85EC57C9080B6572C22146FEB8B026DE2CA?nocache=1269632477.366846"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 72px; height: 72px;" src="http://images.garageband.com/image/gb_images/%7Cpe2%7C30C970FB2ADF55223589D53EF52E990F4F6B99F72C9CD3DBDE4174832CD60A5748A85EC57C9080B6572C22146FEB8B026DE2CA?nocache=1269632477.366846" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />Rate:4/5<br /><br />Well.. That's engaging<br />How do you sound like? You do sound like NIN or some lighter side of KMFDM but it's still intersting and quite engaging. There's a nice balance between manic Trent-like vocals and hypnotic samples. I liked electronic drums to. The tune is just right - not too long, not too complicated. Right there - an industrial electronic composition at its best.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.garageband.com/song?|pe1|S8LTM0LdsaShYVm1Zms">song's site</a>galaktycznyzwiadhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12584534318661817266noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-969932964477478115.post-41291961707627992032010-03-21T11:50:00.000-07:002010-03-21T11:52:45.992-07:00a_forced_fixed_image - A Fractured Girl<a href="http://images.garageband.com/image/gb_images/%7Cpe2%7C30C970FB2ADE5D233586D23EF52E990F4F6B99F72C9CD3DBDE4174832CD60A5748A85EC57C9080B6572C22146FEB8B026DE2CA?nocache=1269197497.385468"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 72px; height: 72px;" src="http://images.garageband.com/image/gb_images/%7Cpe2%7C30C970FB2ADE5D233586D23EF52E990F4F6B99F72C9CD3DBDE4174832CD60A5748A85EC57C9080B6572C22146FEB8B026DE2CA?nocache=1269197497.385468" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />Rate:4/5<br /><br />A psychotic piece <br />I loved it!!! This is a Tarantino soundtrack piece-like tune. Just kidding! It's more like Jodorovsky one! You're lucky because I do enjoy such out-of-head stuff.It's long, it's 12minutes-long and it's more, just as I said, more a out-of-space, Residents-like soundscape than a regular track. Well... It's a regular track in PsychicTV terms ;-). Generally, a recommendable tune. For psychotics. I nominate that song for A best tune suited to an elevator.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.garageband.com/song?|pe1|S8LTM0LdsaShYlO2Z2s">song's site</a>galaktycznyzwiadhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12584534318661817266noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-969932964477478115.post-86721290631640540832010-03-16T10:00:00.000-07:002010-03-16T10:04:39.556-07:00Tom Woxon – Kickstart<a href="http://www.daheardit-records.net/pics/cover/dhr-09_thumb-new.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 350px; height: 200px;" src="http://www.daheardit-records.net/pics/cover/dhr-09_thumb-new.png" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />Rate:10/10<br /><br />Now, that’s something! I have stumbled recently at this netlabel <a href="http://www.daheardit-records.net/en/news/">Da!Heard It Records </a>and I decided to sample one of their menu at random. I knew there would be some breakcore, 8-bit stuff going on there, but I didn’t know that it would be That 8-bit. <a href="http://www.daheardit-records.net/en/discography/dhr09/">Kickstart</a> is a great tribute to a world of commodore/amiga scene, nad it was truly extremely enjoyable to go through the tracks. <a href="http://www.daheardit-records.net/en/artists/tom_woxom/">Tom Woxon’s </a>album is not a simple reconstruction of the sound of those great machines of the 80’s, but more an impression of it. House vocal samples weren’t in use at this time as I recall, I suppose not many people knew about house music in the first place, so those rich vocals that dwells <em>Sofachips</em> or <em>Kickstar</em>t tunes are just a sort of interpretation, though it is quite nice and accurate. As much as I liked those, I simply loved those who are more similar to the imaginary amiga games soundtracks such as <em>Casio Dream</em> or <em>Amiga Bass</em>. Overall, this <a href="http://www.daheardit-records.net/en/discography/dhr09/">a great LP</a>, very engaging though it has got 14 tracks. It is a definitely recommendable production and I’m looking forward to check something else from <a href="http://www.daheardit-records.net/en/discography/">this netlabel</a>.<br /><br />Stay cool,<br /><br />gz.galaktycznyzwiadhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12584534318661817266noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-969932964477478115.post-68079867967166983282010-03-05T09:27:00.000-08:002010-03-05T09:32:07.131-08:00garageband<a href="http://www.garageband.com/images/badges/totd_bluegrey.gif"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 114px; height: 98px;" src="http://www.garageband.com/images/badges/totd_bluegrey.gif" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><br />We've just been acclaimed a track of the day on garageband in the <a href="http://www.garageband.com/genre/electronica">electronica</a> section.

It’s truly not easy to fall asleep to <a href="http://www.restingbell.net/releases/rb078-fall-asleep-to-this">this record</a>, because this is both disturbing and engaging album. What we got here it’s a piece of really professionally-made dark experimental ambient. It is not noise for a noise sake however, but a deep and profound exploration of the sound sphere by the artist. Some of the tunes are simply beatiful. Sorry... I know this is the corniest thing to say, but there’s no other adjective for tunes such as <em>wilderness of the city</em> to describe this utterly touching soundscape. Great, haunting radiohead-like vocal samples connected with the sentimental mood of cello (I suppose it’s cello) and background repetitive ambient makes the composition a five-minute of sheer delight to anyone that enjoys the genre. I think that every piece here deserves attention, beginning from restless intro (<em>when someone loves you no more</em>) through the tracks such as <em>emporia</em> (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_Eno">Brian Eno</a> clashes <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twin_Peaks">Twin Peaks red-room</a>) or minimalistic <em>kontak</em>t. Generally, it is next release from <a href="http://www.restingbell.net/">Resting Bell </a>worth recommending. Berlin still takes it all my friends.<br />p.s. do check the Resting Bell site.

One knows that the sound and production are extremely important on this genre, and I can feel that <a href="http://www.jamendo.com/en/artist/Silent_Assassin">Silent Assassin</a> undestands that very well. Although it’s a classical one man band that has its base mnainly on electronic sound and not live instruments, it does not hinder the compositions in any way. Of course, they are not extremely abundant and multi-layered, I would best described that as a minimal electronic ebm, but still it creates very engaging mood and leaves us wanting to listen to the album once again. It’s hard to say, which ones are my favourites here, because every track has something interesting in it, but if I have to, I would point out <em>German Woods</em>, where the story is told with a great, very atmospheric background (too bad, I cannot understand – don’t know German any bit), and <em>MindInc</em>, which reminds me of some dark ambient <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aphex_Twin">Aphex Twin</a> trips. The only remark I have it’s that tunes resemble eachother too much, for example beat in <em>GermanWoods </em>and <em>C’est</em> is almost identical. Taking this aside however, <a href="http://www.jamendo.com/en/album/60765">TurnOffTheRadio</a> is really a thing to listen to, and I would love to see this performed in a live act. Also the cover, with its early-industrial style is a good cue and a completion to the whole.<br /><br />Stay cool,<br /><br />gz.galaktycznyzwiadhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12584534318661817266noreply@blogger.com0
