UnderWaterLiz Ammerman — UnderWater realizes the liquid effects of harp sounds through electronic enhancement.  The track "Flute" is actually an enhanced Native American flute, and the track "Harp" is actually digitally altered harp music. If you're wondering what a harp in a barrel in a tunnel sounds like, or if you're fond of the glass harmonica or Javanese Gamelan, choose this CD. For the pure tones of the harp go to my other CD, UnderWater_Pure.

Quiet The HouseholdRobert Mouland — The beauty and history of the wire-strung Clairseach ni h'Eireann comes to life in this latest CD from Robert. The harp is a copy of the 17th century Sirr harp, and as a special treat three tracks feature genuine antique instruments from the 18th century: an English guittar c. 1770 and a baroque violin from the shop of Richard Duke c. 1760. A fascinating journey into the sounds of long ago.

DreamTal — Songs about broken hearts, soaring love, and a tragic future comprise DreamTal’s First CD Joy for the Climb. Nick Smith’s tabla playing brings driving North Indian Classical rhythms with their combination of melody and groove. The other side of the coin is Mia Theodoratus’ wild rhythmic harp playing. She varies songs and borrows heavily from Latin rhythms, Berio riffs, classical romantic melody and a bit of chaos thrown in for good measure. Covers include Vaya Con Dios and the classic Syd Barrett tune Bike produced by Peter Principal from Tuxedo Moon.


August 2004

Confusing the Devil is the excellent debut CD from the Hanuman Sextet, six Downtown musicians on the front lines of reinventing music. The Sextet is composed of Andy Haas on shofar, raita Moroccan oboe), sax and electronics; Don Fiorino on banjo, lotar (Moroccan lute) and lap steel guitar; Mia Theodoratus on electric harp; Matt Heyner on bass; David Gould on drums and Dee Pop on percussion. The unique instrumentation combined with the musicians' backgrounds in classical, experimental, jazz, blues and rock immediately points to something special, but what really makes this group combust is their fearless spirit and open-minded ears.
