CD Reviews

Musical Ecstasy
Lynette M. Elizalde-Robinson, Edito | USA | 12/06/2003
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Cruising down Lake Shore Drive in the Windy City on a warm summer evening with the top down and my hair flowing in the night air, the song I want to hear on the Father CD is "Time Charts." If you ever need to feel the sweet and gentle hug of a mystical lover then look no further for the musical lullaby of your senses. The smooth and captivating style of this CD is an aromatic journey of lyrical and funky jazz, with a hint of Hendrix, and a blend of Windham Hills magic that boasts the multi-talented genius of a master at the keyboard/synthesizer, midi and analog guitar. This is one CD you wish would last for hours. The digital artistry of Sequence is a mesmerizing erotic journey of sound. Calls to the ancients resonate hypnotic obedience to the sensual delivery of the rhythmic embrace of "Nubian Queen", while "Passion" electrifies the soul like the tender touch of fingertips on the skin. "Loving You" arouses me from the spell of fantasy long enough to lure my attention into the heartbeat of nightlife, and the culture of Long Island Ice Teas, marinated conversations with would be lovers and memories that surround me with the thoughts of back in the day when all I wanted to do was dance till the sun came up. "Be Bop Jazz" has a deep raw bass groove that perks me up from the insanity of a dream and rides me down "the Drive" with the glam of living large, just because I can. Smiling back at every flirtatious car horn, I turn up the volume on "Spiced Wine" savor the sound and toast the night ride with "Love" just because I know Sequence can. "Grooving in Park Chester" makes this musical experience worthwhile, because the melody is sweet and drifts in afterglow like long goodbyes and endless conversation melting into the peaceful dawn. I can't say enough about this CD, but I enjoy every song burned from the soul of this talented musician. "If Only" is a perfect finale to my musical evening with bittersweet promise that leaves me wanting the thrill of "Effortless Love" with Paul "Sequence" Ferguson all over again. Pulling the Benz into the garage of my high-rise condo overlooking the lakefront, I glide on to the elevator humming track after track and daydreaming that "We Will One Day" share a bottle of Dom Perignon together.This is a "MUST HAVE" 5-Star smooth jazz CD for lovers,dreamers and jazz enthusiasts who want to taste the best in original sound. Sequence is a phenomenal talent that entices his listeners with complex multi-layered musical vision. The tracks are crisp; blended and mastered with genius. If you really want a treat, check out his latest CD, STRONG LOVE at: www.sequence.net It surpasses even this one (FATHER) in triplicate!!!!!!!"
This is your brain on truly imaginative ambient.

"As an avid music fan, musician, collector and composer, I have never found any other recording which represented so thoroughly the true heights of ambient sounds.

This is the music Debussy and Chopin would be composing if they were alive and had the tools available which the new age affords.

Structurally, the sublime movements in these craftings harkens to "Preludes" by Debussy, and the transitional skill, deftly understated, conjures the mastery of Chopin compositions completely.

If you have not heard this wonderful disc, take the advice of someone who loves the genre...this is some of the best trance available anywhere."
