CD Reviews

Exactly! "It Grows On You"
Sam Wilcoxen | Clarksville, TN | 03/08/2003
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Like Muzibacs stated in his review, it does grow on you. I remember watching MTV one night. Beatbox Rocker came on. The video was simply awesome. Nothing really happened - it was just this guy walking around a party or something dressed up as a priest. It was just so simple that it was stylish, much like the song. I know Beatbox Rocker is repetetive, that's the point. So, I went to Tower Records and bought the album. I liked Sonic Empire right off. The others were just alright. But slowly, I found myself listening to nearly all the songs and liking them. Were they repetitive? Yes, but so was Daft Punk's Homework album. Look how popular they are.It is hard to explain just what exactly makes this album so great. It is sleek, it is sexy, and it takes time to cultivate. Give it a try. Also, If you're a Run DMC fan, check out Hard Times."
Essentially banal, yet surprisingly compelling.

"I can't quite put my finger on what works about this cd; it doesn't break new musical ground; it is not even that interesting musically. Only a couple of tracks are inherently worthy.It has energy -- good energy -- a good kick to it -- although if you track the lines of energy in your mind as it plays, if you let the sounds really pour into your conscious and alert mind it doesn't really go anywhere, this energy.There are a few tracks with lyrics, and the lyrics are pretty tedious. You don't really want to listen to the lyrics. But who buys techno for life-altering poetry? No, it's not the words.The Amazon reviewer notes the historical significance of this artist, and yet most of us don't buy music for its historical significance. The question is, what is it about this cd that is working for me now? Why do I keep listening to it? Because I do. I turn to track #5, Sonic Empire, and the same old computer generated rhythms on truly mediocre techno albums suddely show their own intensity. #4, Hanging With The Machineheads, the sick twists and dissonances there and the slow evolution of the aural background hold my fascination. But beyond these high points, there is also something essentially compelling about the mix of sounds, rhythms, the mix of tapestry and breakbeats that just works. I can't honestly give it more than three stars because I just can't find a good reason to, but the fact of the matter is I listen to this a fair bit more than some of my four star possessions... make of that what you will."
Enjoy the Love

"Ignore some of the bad reviews given by orangeduke and elia. They are clueless.Sometimes the greatest beauty can be found in simplicity. Although I enjoy complicated soundscapes, this CD is honest in its' beats. Most of all, it grows on you. I went from thinking it was an O.K. album the first time I heard it to now being amazed at it. Those are the best albums. The ones you enjoy better the 20th time you've played them. I admit, I could have easily put this CD away and just forgotten about it after I heard it the first time. Give it a chance."
