GIRLS UNDER GLASS - Minddiver digiCD indigo out 1-10
'Minddiver' is the 10th regular album by GIRLS UNDER GLASS. The band founded back in 1986 got popular very quick due to a successful tour as support act of Fields of the Nephilim. Since 1990 the line-up of the band has remained the same and the band has delivered a string of trendsetting albums since, such as 'Positive', 'Darius' (featuring also Peter Heppner of Wolfsheim), 'Christus' or their celebrated last effort 'Equilibrium', released in 1999 on Hall of Sermon.

'Minddiver' is an extremely 'straight' and highly emotional album. From the German sung songs like 'Erinnerung' or 'Du bist das Licht' that show a very emotional side of Girls under Glass to the more beat-driven rhythmic songs you can find a wide spectrum of musical styles and atmospheres on this album, yes they even surprise with a fantastic cover-version of MADONNA's 'Frozen' ! ! ! Guest musicians on this album include Lacasa Del Cid (Cassandra Complex) on acoustic guitars and a singer named 'Serena', protagonist of the unusual final track 'The Gift', a track that closes the gap between the mood of Björk and the sound of 'Trauma', Girls under Glass' sideproject.

               DAYLIGHT TORN - New Skin CD napalm out 8-10

                Strong Gothic-Rock release with Female Vocals ! The title of the new release "New Skin" gives an idea of the common musical metamorphosis which took place in the mind of the musicians. Due to the retirement of lead-singer Max and the engagement of keyboard-player Nora the band was forced to find a new identity. The first song '"Awake" makes clear that the development of the band has erupted a new creative brilliance. It's characterized by powerful Goth-Rock-Lines, straightly played and spiced with the peculiar breeze of melancholy. Especially the new female lead-singer Mea seizes the challenge of the overwhelming freedom and gives the songs an inspiring personal touch and quality.

                                                                  NEWS FROM PROJEKT !

               ALIO DIE / AMELIA CUNI - Apsaras CD projekt out 8-10

                Italian singer Amelia Cuni has a voice like a drink of mountain stream water, a voice that you might expect to find oper-ating in popular song. But her area is that most ancient and rigorous of Indian styles, dhrupad singing. Cuni's vocal clarity and dusky sweetness sit oddly but perfectly in this austere context. Recent enthusiastic collaborators have included Paul Schütze, Terry Riley and David Toop. This is not music that borrows a few Indian flavours, but a serious attempt to make something new and expressive from within Indian art music. It's both extra-ordinarily beautiful and very easy to listen to. - With 15 different collaborations and 7 solo albums, Alio Die presents his most stunning release to date. His work with Robert Rich / Vidna Obmana have set the stage for the unusual beauty of this dramatic work, celebrating nature and the magic of the human voice. In Hindu mythology, the Apsaras are female spirits of nature, usually water nymphs. Flowing in the waters, these celestial nymphs come out of the waves like the first seed of the mind: desire.
 

               SOULWHIRLINGSOMEHWERE - Please sennd help, CD projekt out 8-10

                Infused with the heartbreak of David Sylvian, the musical sensitivity of Harold Budd, the piercing lyrical inquisition of black tape for a blue girl, and the personal insight of a man reflecting on the past five years of failure, Soulwhirling-somewhere's please sennd help is a strikingly personal album of acute soul-searching and self-awareness. The band is driven by Michael Plaster's delicate voice, atop an exquisite web of reverbed piano melodies, ambiently processed guitars and drifting electronic synthscapes. It's an elegant environment, where a sense of realization and discovery prevails. Michael explains where this new collection of songs originated... "Most of please sennd help was written between 1996 and 1998; about a few relationships I jumped into too quickly. In 2000 - when I began to finally record the songs - they started to take on a different angle. In retrospect, maybe things weren't as wonderful as I had tried to fool myself into believing; and maybe their endings weren't as traumatic as I had felt at the time. Ultimately all I had done was spend a few years trying to fill a hole in my life; a void inside me that I still haven't figured out how to fill."

               STEVE ROACH - Structures from silence CD projekt out 8-10

                2001 Remastered Edition with beautiful new cover artwork by Steve Roach. While the term "classic" is used freely these days, Structures from Silence has earned the "classic" status in the years following its release in 1984. The breathing suspended embrace of atmospheres and serene melodies on this breakthrough release introduced a new sound for its time, generating an abundance of feedback via cards and letters from listeners long before the dawn of email. Structures from Silence is a living example of the true healing quality that music can hold.
 

                STEVE ROACH - Time of the Earth DVD projekt out 8-10

                All-region (except Japan) playback. NTSC ! All newer European TV-sets will have no problems to 'read' this DVD - older TVs will read it only in black and white ! Running time: 77 minutes. Features scene search and two full-length Dolby Digital stereo soundtracks. Time of the Earth offers a unique DVD immersion experience. Steve Roach -the master of mind-altering, atmospheric soundworlds - has long been influenced by the expansive landscapes of the desert southwest. On Time of the Earth, he has found the visual poetry to match his evocative music: a 77-minute photographic feast for the eyes created by Steve Lazur. Gleaned from three years of filming the most remote natural wonders of the American West, turbulent cloud formations hover over sun-scorched canyons. Epic rock sculptures grant reluctant entrance to vistas still echoing from the dawn of creation. Time-lapse and slow motion film techniques merge with real-time movement through landscapes so surreal they draw viewers into an alternate universe that nonetheless exists right here on this planet. When you enter this experience, you become deeply engaged. Time becomes relative, while you become abstract to it. This film in many ways is like a poem written with images and sound, and one of the most memorable and rewarding experiences I've seen in DVD format. Highly recommended

                THIS ASCENSION - Sever CD projekt out 8-10

                Projekt reissues the out-of-print third and fourth fourth albums from This Ascension. A review on 'Walk Softly, A Dream lies Here' : This Ascension's sound is quite distinctive, although Projekt and 4AD groups are obvious influences. The band's third release, continues down this distinctive path, creating less an atmosphere of despair than a bittersweet aura. The song titles 'Light + Shade', 'Placid', 'Sleep' - underline the serentity that This Ascension evoke. But powerful undercurrents ripple through the music, adding depth and power to what would otherwise be a placid experience

                SEVER is the band's most diverse and spectacular work to date. Sever combines all the stylings of ethereal alternative rock, replete with lush instrumentation and heavenly vocals... with the power to keep you on the edge of your seat. Produced by John A. Rivers (Love and Rockets, Dead Can Dance), Severinfuses world-music instrumentation, soaring angelic vocals and driving rhythms into the ethereal-goth realm of independent rock. This fourth album has truly been worth the wait! This re-release includes a bonus-track : The song 'I Wish' has been included in a special John A. Rivers Remix !
