Free Music Notes for Myth Of Red, The
Free Music Review: Dare to keep kids off drums
Hit: 5 Stars
Lovely voice. Excellent music. The drums, electronic or otherwise, are unnessesary. Drums are often just a glorified click track left in, in many recordings for the more rhythmically challenged listeners - my opinion. The vocals and musical instrumentations stand alone just fine by themselves. I wish I could edit out some of the overused drum tracks found in many examples of modern popular music, maybe recordings could become more interactive someday. Anybody listening?
Both my parents were avid opera and classical music fans, and my home was always filled with the sounds. I loved many of the vocals, but found some to be opera-erattic sometimes. Trying to squeeze dozens of different notes into a few clicks of the metronome sometimes was way bizarre. Although, when Miles or Jimi did it with jazz & rock on their instruments it worked.
Sasha's smooth vocal release evokes a primordeal sensation. From her vocal chords to my eardrums sparks a bold spiritual sweetness I've experianced by only a few female singers. Diana Ross, a young Madonna, and early Alison Krause provide the same chemistry. Maybe it's a male/female thing.
Sasha Lazard and Emma Shapplin have created an appreciation in me for the more classical styles of contemporary vocalists.
Free Music Review: A Goddess' Voice!!!!
Hit: 5 Stars
Sasha Lazard made her first mark on me when I borrowed her CD from a library a couple of years ago. I was amazed by what I heard and wanted to hear so much more! I couldn't borrow it from the library again, and it was hard to order all of her cds from local distributors. Because of limitations, it was a purchase that was forced to wait.
It remained in my mind until this year, and I was lucky she had released 3 more cds! (two of which were on cdbaby, who I am equally satisfied with) I am constantly amazed at the force and integrity of her vocal prowess, though nothing has come close yet to my first impression, the Myth of Red.
The Battle of Erishkigal was a passionate performance, I constantly imagine a scenario when listening to it. Armies clashing on a giant field. So vivid is the sound that it feels like every sound creates an image in my mind. Not many people can effect imagination like that with just their voice.
I am more than pleased, and I show everyone Sasha Lazard's music.
Free Music Review: Music To Calm The Nerves
Hit: 5 Stars
I've owned this CD for over a year. Usually like most CD's I buy, once I listen to them a plethora of times, it becomes somewhat of old news. However, this is not the case for Myth of Red. I find even now it gives me chills down my spine. What's more, when I'm feeling stressed for any reason, these songs just put me at ease. I dunno, the chills I get from music like this just relaxes me a lot.
I especially loved the Princess Mononoke theme song. I admit, I loved the anime a lot, so when I found that Sasha Lazard had done the theme song for English, I was sold. It's a bummer the song is so short, but I've found that my top 5 favorite songs of all music are all under 2m 30s. Short and sweet.
I recommend that anyone who listens to the samples and likes what they hear, to buy the CD. You'll thank yourself later.
Free Music Review: The Mythic Journey Has Never Been Lovelier
Hit: 5 Stars
Remember those ancient Greek myths and legends about beautiful sea sirens with voices so pure and enchanting they could lure unwary seafarers to their doom on the rocks? Well, if those stories were true I guarantee Sasha Lazard would be one of those mythic creatures.
'The Myth of Red' is an ingenious blending of mood and emotion all perfectly complimented by one of the most beautiful voices you'll ever hear. Some tracks are deeply romantic, others darkly spiritual and some medieval or Gothic. All are excellent!
This is a first rate production in every way; song selection, lush musical accompaniment and of course the amazing Sasha. If you're already a fan of Lisa Gerrard or Lorenna McKennit get ready to add Sasha Lazard to your list!
Free Music Review: I just love this album
Hit: 5 Stars
I had the pleasure of watching Sasha prepare her voice and practice before a show.It was only me and another girl in the room.At the time I had no idea who she was but after hearing her strong vocals and the wonderfull music behind it I was hooked.I only wish I got up the nerve to introduce myself. She realy is very statuesque and intimidating in person...and yes it is her voice purely throughout the entire album. No tricks. simply amazing.
