Free Music Review: Timeless
Hit: 5 Stars
Effervescent, ethereal downtempo that ages like fine wine.
Swirling beats woven into numerous samples,flutes, and the only Apocalypse Now vocal sample I have ever heard in this genre! funky chill tunes to drive, smoke or love to. Changes directions in mid-song without missing a turn and goes back the way it came just as easily.
I am a big fan of a number of downtempo acts and albums from this era (and beyond) but I have to say that this is probably my favorite electronic album simply because it has such a strong presence without being overpowering. It can sit in the background at a party or you can crank it to the center of everyone's attention.
This album covers a lot of ground , starting slow but building up (A Grand Love Theme) , going into conga drums and delightful feminine vocals with ease (Love Me Sweet) and slipping back into a nice solid groove before taking off into the outer reaches (The Bootleggers) A little stormy in sections, at one point (Sister Curare) the jangling, off key piano chords are a bit shocking when you are so used to the sweet melodies but it's all a set up into the next groove. By the time you are into the last three songs (esp. She Wolff Daydreaming) this album will be in your head for life.
I have played chill and down to mid tempo for a number of friends who don't ordinarily listen to electronic tunes and this is always the album that converts them.

French exclusive version of the trip hop artist's 1997 debut album, featuring a bonus disc of remixes. Described as 'an irresistible romp through the light-hearted, pastoral side of trip-hop by way of orchestral-pop paragons like Bacharach, Gainsbourg and Love.' Featuring the vocals of the Pastels' Katrina Mitchell. 1998 release. Double Digipak.Alternative Rock Music CDs
