Free Music Notes for Nuages du Monde
Free Music Review: dream pop electronica
Hit: 4 Stars
A longtime Delerium and Enigma fan since their first albums.
Each repeat listen brings up something new that I hadn't heard before and I feel as if I'm hearing a slightly different album every time.
Richly layered, Nuages du Monde, is in some ways a new level of sophistication. The first four cuts have become my favorites.
Definitely worth a listen for long-time fans and newcomers who appreciate a more subtle, trance-like sound.
Nuages du Monde Poster
There aren't a lot of musicians who actually start a trend, but as Delerium, Rhys Fulber and Bill Leeb can take credit for the ethereal-girl genre of dream-pop electronica. From early releases like Karma, which included singer Sarah McLachlan, they've specialized in a mixture of lush, almost romantic electronica coupled with female singers that tend toward the ecstatic. Their latest album, Nuages du Monde, is no exception. Fulber and Leeb bring in a host of singers, from the operatic soprano Isabel Bayrakdarian to Punjabi Bollywood singer Kiran Ahluwalia. Also on board are old favorites the Medi?val B?bes, whose "Blow Northern Wind" is sampled and adapted with new vocals on "Extoller." Kristy Thrisk, who goes back to the earliest vocal works of Delerium on Semantic Spaces, returns, joined by Kirsty Hawkshaw--a singer who's already been a favorite foil for artists like BT, Orbital, and DJ Ti?sto. Along with Jael's "Lost and Found," Hawkshaw's "Fleeting Instant" is among the most likely pop singles from the disc. Like their previous album, Chimera, Nuages du Monde ("Clouds of the World") flirts dangerously with soporifically shlocky arrangements, but they've pulled back considerably, thickening the beats and trading synth strings for real on many tracks. The tribal "Sister Sojourn Ghost," the B?bes' second appearance on the disc, is one of the few tracks that play with the formula, as an uncharacteristically primal chant from the B?bes treads a dark, percussive groove. A bit more of that would have lifted Nuages du Monde beyond what seems to be a business-as-usual approach by Delerium. --John DilibertoAlternative Rock Music CDs
