Free Music Notes for Goldbug
Free Music Review: Orbital lovers should try Ben Neill
Hit: 5 Stars
In the same manner that Orbital creates music that our ears want to hear, Ben Neill creates music that Orbital would like to listen too and so will you if that is your sort of thing. This music is art, pure and simple - however the tracks have many variations but are seated well within the realm of Trance/Drum and Bass. Ben Neill brings us Jazz that anyone can listen too (I hate Jazz, but this works!) and mixes his saxophone with break beats, Orbital type film scores, Acid Jazz, House and even Rock, but this is still Trance and Drum and Bass that propels Ben Neill's Goldbug into the same category as Orbital, the Orb and even Oakenfold's Transport or the work's of Leftfield.It is a unique vision, but the music is sublime and comes across as some of the best sounds that you have heard from a relatively unknown artist. Ben Neill's Goldbug is an essential for any fan of trance, drum and bass, jazz or dance. It is an advanced piece of art that takes you on a journey into electronica and back. In fact this kind of music may have been the dawn of electronica/trance/drum and bass.
Anyhow if you liked ANY of the groups or music genres I have listed then give Goldbug a try. It is a revolutionary album with deep tunes and mixing that will blow your mind in terms of what one man can do... Moby style.
It really is that good.
Goldbug Poster
The best music is often the hardest to classify, and so it is with Ben Neill's latest CD, Goldbug. It might be acid jazz or ambient or new age or techno--often it's two or three at once. But then, innovation is Neill's forte; that trumpet you hear on Goldbug is an instrument of his own invention that combines acoustic and electronic elements and effectively turns Neill into a one-man band. From the playfulness of "Freezer Burn" to the low-key ambience of "Syntonic," this is all highly enjoyable, if unclassifiable, material; "Dark Gift" combines a straightahead beat with a jazzy trumpet line, and "Shirt Waste" wouldn't sound out of place on the soundtrack to the underground animated TV series Reboot. Call it what you like--just don't miss it. --Genevieve WilliamsDance & DJ Music CDs
