Free Music Notes for You Are Here

Free Music Review: No Longer No. 2
Hit: 5 Stars

With the release of You Are Here, Dhani Harrison and fellow thenewno2 members (Oliver Hecks, Jonathan Sadoff, Jeremy Faccone, Nick Fyffe and Frank Zummo) give us an album built around an eclectic mix of modern musical genres - part rock, part techno, part electronica, part pop, part psychedelia, part Indian. The result is a unique sound world with lots of texture that holds together. In short, it's a good vibe and sonic ride.

It's surprising the degree to which Dhani has embraced and deploys the new digital musical technologies in a way that his father, who liked to record "real instruments" as he called them, did not. But then again, maybe not, as George liked his effects pedals too.

For me personally, it's also an interesting experience to listen to Dhani's voice purely as an instrument. I'm sure that Dhani, like other children of former Beatles like Julian and Sean Lennon, dislike vocal comparisons to their fathers for obvious and understandable reasons. Nevertheless, I must say that as a lifetime Beatles fan, who saw Dhani's father live 4 times and who enjoys singing himself, I found myself really impressed. George's voice was often described as being "thin" or "reedy". There is a similarity, yes - but Dhani's voice has a timbre and a soulfulness that is his alone. As an instrument it grabs your attention and draws you in.

There are some great individual songs on this recording - So Vain, Give You Love, Another John Doe, Yomp - but the whole album is impressive and bears repeated listenings. A lot of musical creativity, playfulness and ability is displayed.

Dhani's' his own man, following his own path, finding and exploring his own sounds with his friends. The result is in a word - beautiful.

It's always great to hear a new artist making beautiful music. After listening to You Are Here, I look forward to the future of thenewno2.
