Goldmund

I’ll probably get some stick for this one, but came across this one due to searching out Goldmund after seeing them in the credits for Martyrs.

To most solo piano music there’s no rhyme or reason. It changes tempo, intensity etc in a similar way to a movie, almost like it’s telling a story. This album is different. This has structure, more like a modern pop song, and a repetitiveness which is soothing and relaxing, making it an extremely easy listen, and none of the tracks are overly long.  And I’m not exactly a fan of piano music. See what you think.

A nice blend of electronic Prodigy/Leftfield style music, which is really well produced.

Kalpataru Tree

Come across this while listening to my usual group of internet radio stations….it’s now my most listened to album over the past month.

Nice and laid back stuff – the album’s called Scattered Fragments Of The Eternal Dream. It’s not available on CD unfortunately, only download. Visit www.kptree.com and click on MUSIC, then on the PayPlay option, which will take you to a 192kbps download of all 9 tracks of the album, a decent 75 minutes worth for only $7.92, which works out around £5.30 – BARGAIN!!

You can hear them on Napster, but I’d recomend the higher quality download mentioned above, as Napster is only 128kbps.

Came across a track on Radio Schitzoid last night, which was from their album Make Animals Happy. Apparently classed as ‘techno dub’. You can sample tracks from the cdbaby site
