There are many ways one might describe Ah Cama-Sotz. Electronic, ambient, atmospheric, and experimental are just a few. But, the music is more than its sound. It is the mood and emotion the music evokes. Klapholz 's earlier works were quite rhythmic and broke into ritualistic ambient. As the music evolved and changed over time, it continued down its dark path and became even more doomy and haunting. Themes continue to deal with some very heavy issues, and touch on the dark side of mankind. The ugly side of religion, death, plagues and war. It is the stuff mankind is constantly causing and fighting at the same time. Should you choose to listen to Ah Cama-Sotz, rest assured you will find something dark and sometimes sinister waiting for you.

Nitin Sawhney takes his Indian-fusion one step further with HUMAN, infusion copious amounts of British pop-soul with the Eastern vocals. And it's semi-successful, even if it does get a slightly self-indulgent at times ("Eastern Eyes," "Falling," “Rainfall” -- what’s up with all the tracks with “fall” in the title?). But there are also moments of sublime beauty, like on "Say Hello." The more "authentic" Indo-electric compositions like "Heer" work better, in my opinion, than the other hybrids… the Indo-blues of “The River,” for instance. Compare that to the blues-inflections on “Chetan Jeevan.” Still, you can't blame Sawhney for trying... after all, he's only human.

6 The Snow (6:48)
Considering the release date (1991), this was a brilliant step forward in electronic music. Combining big, hard breakbeats with an absolutely eerie sample of an old vocal quartet (Mills Brothers?). If you like any of Jack Dangers / Meat Beat Manifesto, this is one you can not pass up. Start with that Psychic TV / Throbbing gristle acid-born prescience and uneasiness, throw in driving MBM-style breakbeats and Spooky-like synth textures. Top off with one of the most haunting vocal samples ever to grace an electronica album. These are long dead ghosts from the past, voices heard in the howling wind, saying 'All too soon, life had passed. Carpe diem, foolish mortal."

1995, and Dubstar first appeared as Steve Hillier, Chris Wilkie and Sarah Blackwood. Born of smoky bars, seedy basements clubs and debauched house parties, Dubstar released their debut album 'Disgraceful' to amazing critical and commercial success across the world. There were tours, television, top of the pops and many tantrums...
...And suddenly it was 2000. Nine hit singles, three hit albums, and a belated 'Best of...' compilation later, Dubstar paused for an extended break. Nothing happened for a long, long time.
But now, in 2007, Dubstar will return with something new. But it's not about pseudo nostalgia, not sexless posturing, not even about the synthesizers and keyboards that dominated the 1990s and sound so tired now. Instead, Dubstar have done something else, something fresh, something...very Dubstar. So standby, this is going to be interesting…

LASERDISC - Depeche Mode - 101 (38155-6) USA
1. 101 - The Movie 117
This laser disc is the first and only feature-length film about Depeche Mode. Filmed by respected director, D.A. Pennebaker, 101 is considered by many to show Depeche Mode at it most widly accepted point, stuffing 70,000 fans into the Rose Bowl in California.
The following appears on the sleeve:
A film about music, about those who sell it and those who buy it. Those who direct it and those who write and perform it. Those who just listen and those who listen and never forget. Master and servant. But which is which...
The new music. Four young Englishmen. Friends who have grown up together. The began with keyboards and a tape recorder because drums made too much noise around the house. No manager (they do that themselves) and no contract with their record company (MUTE. just a handshake).
Concert tour. Surrounded by a buccaneer crew of British and Anzak technicians, three forty-foot semis and equipment that belongs on a launch pad, they range across the landscape, setting up and striking week after week, city after city. Up by afternoon and out by dawn. Not even time for a soundcheck.
Engulfed by seas of fans, who slip through cracks in the wall and haunt them backstage, youthful Americans who will soon inherit this landscape. And close behind a special bus full of fans, winners in a be-in-a-Depeche-Mode-movie-contest trying to catch up with their idols. (They did finally at Tempe, Arizona, only to lose their way to the concert and miss them after all.) At the tour's end (the hundred and first concert) nearly seventy thousand fill the Rose Bowl stadium in Pasadena, California to watch a spectacle of lights and music performed by four friends, on three keyboards and vocal mic...and a tape recorder.
And now it's a film. I don't think it's a documentary although it's about real people in real life. It's certainly not an acted film, although between the band performing onstage and the busload of youthful fans from New York crossing the country for the first time, there is in it every sort of performance you could imagine, from discovering the infidelity of a girlfriend to becoming a part of the giant audience at Pasadena. If I had to call it by any other name than a movie I would say it was a musical adventure, perhaps even a musical fantasy. It's not exactly what happened (no one can ever know exactly what happened no matter how hard they work at it), but it is a kind of fragmented, simultaneous vision of the lives of its participants, layer like the music it's set to, with what was funny and what mattered.
For me it remains a dream memory, gone and over now but still visible like a fly in amber for all time.
