Moin Olaf,
danke für den Tipp, dieses Mosaic-Projekt ist interessant! Hatte ich trotz intensiverer Suche noch nicht entdeckt. Sehr cool! Werde mir die CD bei nächster Gelegenheit mitordern.
Die Skindiver erschließt sich mir durch ihre Intensität und sphärische Tiefe. Weniger Bumms, mehr Chilling.
Eine Rezension bei amazon trifft es m.E. sehr gut:
"Ms. Hendryx made quite a departure with the album 'Skindiver'. Her past albums have been more R&B, dance based but she really hit her stride with this album.
Starting with Nona's vocals, she is so powerful without being overwrought or oversung. She has a husky, haunting voice that can still send shivers down my spine especially in the song '6th Sense' when she sings the final line "does anybody care".
The songs are a bit too electronic sounding for today's standards but that is a minor criticism. Lyrically, the songs are deep and meaningful and intelligently written. 'Through the Wire' can still bring a lump to my throat with the sample of Martin Luther King at the beginning (one of my favourite all time songs). The songs can be uplifting (women who fly), tribal (skindiver) and haunting (no emotion, 6th sense).
Not for the mainstream, though a rewarding listen to those open to meaningful, unique music performed by one of the best in the business."
So....... und jetzt ist genug. Bin sehr neugierig, was Sascha uns zeigt.
