Synopsis

Product Description
Instrumental ambient debut by San Diego collective Starline Theorie. The core group of bass, drums, and two guitars is joined on stage and on record by a rotating cast of singers and players. The vocalists ""vocalize"" more than sing lyrics and the additional instrumentation (dumbek, sitar, piano, trumpet, djembe, cellos, flutes) lends a global feel to the album. From dub/ambient pieces to Middle Eastern modal pieces to ambient guitar driven instrumentals, it's a beautiful record. For fans of Portishead, Massive Attack, and Dead Can Dance.

(5 out of 5 stars)

"These guys have a real buzz going in the San Diego area. I first heard them on a local radio show, "The Big Sonic Chill" and bought the record the next day. There's alot of different vibes on the record, from Middle Eastern to dub reggae to Miles Davis late 50's era jazz. There seem to be three different vocalists as well as trumpet, flute, percussion, and beautiful guitar work over a solid bass and drum section. Sounds like Dead Can Dance, Radiohead, Massive Attack...even Pink Floyd's more textural work. At about 70 minutes long, it is an investment timewise, but great headphone music."
