Free Music Notes for Heartbeat Radio
Free Music Review: Eclectic mix of styles
Hit: 5 Stars
I have always loved Sondre Lerche's music, and this album does not disappoint. Unlike his previous albums, which always seemed to fall into one particular genre (different for each... jazz for Duper Sessions, folk for Dan In Real Life, alt-pop for Two Way Monologue, etc), Heartbeat Radio somehow manages to be all over the place in style but still feel like a cohesive album. In terms of tone, I would liken it to Two Way Monologue (the album, not the song) in that most everything is fairly laid-back, intricate, and well-written, which means it takes longer to get into it, but once you do it is hard to get back out! I have had this CD in my car since I bought it (3 weeks ago) and I also listen to it on my iPod at work. It is addictive. I would list favorite tracks, but over the weeks they have all shown their merit and I can't even pare it down to top 6. The title track is the most "pop"-like, and definitely hooks you in at first, but it is the more subtle songs that bring you back for more play after play.
All in all, another fantastic album from my favorite singer-songwriter.
Heartbeat Radio Poster
Sondre Lerche, an award-winning singer-songwriter, newly minted Hollywood go-to man, and frequent sighting on critics' year-end "best albums" lists, is back with his fifth studio album, Heartbeat Radio. The songs mix acoustic guitars and grand gestures of orchestral pop with elements of anything from '50s Jazz via '60s and '70s Brazilian psych-folk to state-of-the-art '80s pop masters such as Prefab Sprout, Scritti Politti and Fleetwood Mac. While it maintains the studio polish of his groundbreaking debut, Faces Down, there's also a sense of musical adventure that stems from his later work. Having written, scored, and recorded all songs for the Dan in Real Life soundtrack, as well as earned Rolling Stone "top 50" nods, and Elvis Costello's fan-ship, Lerche is no stranger to acclaim. But the story doesn't stop there. Heartbeat Radio is Sondre Lerche's boldest and most challenging record yet.Alternative Rock Music CDs
