Synopsis

Album Description
Movement and progression, transportation and transformation - this is the basis for this disc. Beneath infectious grooves, thick harmonies and melodic hooks, the album boasts topics ranging from the down low phenomenon ("Mr. Mistress"), gender identity ("Transport Me"), gay relationships ("Good Relationship)", spirituality and forgiveness ("I Can Forgive You,"), crystal meth addiction ("Feeding The Fire") and human rights ("Human"). For the first single, the horn driven, earth wind and fire-esque retro house jam "Where The Music Takes You," Gold collaborated with Grammy Award Winning Producer Joe Hogue (of >HitPlay) and VH1's "Born To Diva" Sasha Allen to express the eternal theme of "To thine own self you can be true." Dave Koz also lends his smooth sounds on the album. Sexy, smart and soulful, the buzz has already begun that Transport Systems is a breakthrough album for this groundbreaking artist.

"This album 'transporter system' is somewhat less accessable than 'space under sun' but once you take the time to get to know it, it will really rock your world. Positive, funky, upbeat........LOVE IT !!!! Ps, did I mention that Ari Gold himself is yummi ;-)......an extra bonus. Justin Timberlake, eat your heart out !!!!"

"Talk about waking up with the house on fire! Ari's new music is as delicious as he is himself. Most of the tracks are filled with lots of energy and smart, catchy lyrics. I got hooked with the earlier "Space Under Sun" album and this new cd has reeled me right in.



There's a little rock, a little jazz, and a whole lot of upbeat, can't sit still, R&B/pop music. Love it!"

"Ari's strong, sensual voice is pure honey, and when it wraps it around songs as sweet as these, the result is delicious. I love Ari on a mid tempo song, and the second track, Transport Me, is Ari at his best: haunting, romantic and soulful. If you love his signature song Space Under Sun, Transport Me will will find a similar home on your "favorites" playlist.



Of course, Ari excels at dance tracks, too, and Where the Music Takes You is a rocking good time, as is Mr. Mistress and Good Relationship. This CD will definitely keep you going on the dance floor or in the gym.



It's great to hear an artist as talented and accessible as Ari as he continues to grow and evolve. Even better, unlike many male pop star who have yet to tumble out of the closet, Ari is openly gay, and directs some of his songs to other men. The result? Music that is more heartfelt, more sincere and more moving that you're used to hearing.



Transport Systems is really good stuff. Buy it for the music, but also enjoy the satisfaction of knowing that you're helping prove that gay artists can be successful without hiding their true selves. Ari's a great-looking guy, but his true beauty lies in his art and his courage.



Keep it up Ari - you are loved.
