Free Music Notes for IFree Music Review: robotic rock Hit: 4 StarsI got into Buffalo Daughter after hearing "Great Five Lakes" a few years back. I hadn't brought anything until I brought "I" the other day. I was blown away by their sound. As a big fan of Cornelius and Cibo Matto (artists who have collaberated with BD), I'm now a fan of theirs. An amazing album.
Free Music Review: Incredible Hit: 5 StarsIf you ever have a chance to catch BD live, don't miss it. One of the best I've seen, next to Tortoise, Nobukazu and Autechre. I've been listening to this album as regularly as I drink water. suGar, if you happen to read this, thanks so much for hanging out and talking with me and my friends after your Seattle show at I-Spy, you're the coolest gal around. And yes, Ligeti rocks.
Free Music Review: A little different than other BD albums, but still very good Hit: 5 StarsEven though "I" strays a bit from the Buffalo Daughter "norm", speaking as a huge fan, it was definatley not a disappointment to me. All the songs have a beautiful melodic charm to them topped off with suGar and Yumiko's soothing vocals. Some of my favorites from I are "Mirror Ball", "Discoth?que Du Paradis", and the title track "I". Mirror Ball includes a very simple set of lyrics with a gorgeous background melody. Discoth?que Du Paradis sounds just like the title. It's a little something to dance to. The eigth track, I, provides a set of happy lyrics and a chance for me to fall in love with their accents again. The flute creates a very relaxing mood, always a bonus with Buffalo Daughter. This wonderful album was definetlty worth the wait, and I'd recommend it it any Japanese Pop/Shibuya-Kei fan.
