	Jackboot: Boots: Earphoria
		Soma: In the concerts of the time period, after the row of hits were batted out of the park it was time for the band to take a turn off into the slightly more obscure numbers.
		Most surprising of all is it's nearly note-for-note perfection to the rabidly adored album version, where as the preceeding tracks took swings from the expected into new tangents.
		The period between 'Drown' in 1992 and 'Pisces Iscariot' in 1994 is one of the greatest musical accomplishments by any group in the last thirty years.

	AmbientMusicGuide.com - Robert Rich
		While the title may suggest a superficial appeal to the new age crowd, this magnificent album completely avoids nature cliches and is one of the most striking albums of electro-acoustic environmental music ever released.
		The former album described as “a journey into the primordial mind”, the latter as “rhythms from the earth’s memory”.
		As with albums like Fissures it's Rich's flute and guitar playing throughout that binds the album together and provides its tonal/melodic centre; without it we'd be adrift in the inhuman, desolate nothingness of dark ambient at its worst.

	Doom-metal.com: Reviews - Tiamat
		This album clearly is an effort released while the band was well under way in their evolution towards a totally different genre.
		Lyrics-wise, this album is a next step in the continuous improvement that main man Johan Edlund has been showing from album to album.
		While the album took me a while to get into, and although I only really got into it after I heard the tracks being played live on their show (on tour with Moonspell), I would recommend this album to all fans of the previous few Tiamat albums.

	Soma (by Jeff Blend)
		There is no other musical album that affects me so deeply as Steve Roach's 1992 collaboration with Robert Rich, SOMA.
		This album penetrates as deep into the layers of one's being as it does into the ambient caverns of the Earth's geology and history.
		Indeed, it seems that SOMA and its predecessor STRATA are both tributes to this planet and its amazing geology.

		This album has no notes with it, and neither did their ‘Best Of’ oddly enough, so what we get is a curt and random selection of live performances from their ‘Siamese Dream’ LP, some unreleased fripperies that are nothing but pointless and two songs from their ‘Gish’ and ‘Lull’ LPs and EPs.
		The live performances on this are as excellent, thunderous and as raucous as you would expect from this group, one of the forerunners of the angst-ridden rock revolution of the early ninties.
		The terrifying background vocals from the album song are replaced with a pleasing wall of sound and the scintillating guitar solo in the thrd half is nice and piercing.

		After a brief stint with the BMX Bandits, Blake reunited with Love and McGinley to form Teenage Fanclub in 1989; drummer Francis McDonald, a fellow BMX Bandit, completed the original lineup, although McDonald was replaced by fan Brendan O'Hare during sessions for the group's debut album, 1990's A Catholic Education.
		With its newfound melodic ingenuity, brash guitar sound and gorgeous harmonies, the record was a massive critical success, and although mainstream pop radio failed to bite, the group found a warm welcome on collegiate airwaves.
		Although the title of the 1993 follow-up Thirteen served immediate notice that Teenage Fanclub's Big Star fetish continued unabated, the album's bitter lyrical outlook and heavier guitar sound owed much to Neil Young, while the epic closer, "Gene Clark," honored the pioneering Byrds co-founder.

		After being offered a solo recording contract, Dido readied her first album "No Angel", an album she hoped would be a departure from the work she had done with Faithless.
		Madonna's first album Madonna came out in 1983 and since then she's had a string of hits, been a major influence in the music industry and become an international icon.
		In 1992, heavily influenced by the Beach Boys, they recorded a song under the name Darling, which in turn found its way onto a compilation single issued on Stereolab's Duophonic label.

		His official follow-up album, Pre-Millennium Tension, explored dark soundscapes and dub-affected heavy atmospherics, no doubt influenced by his travels to Jamaica to record the album, and left much of the catchy hooks of Maxinquaye behind.
		The following albums Angels with Dirty Faces, Juxtapose, and Blowback were all in a similar vein; although occasionally quite insightful, overall they explored the same tones and moods, showing no signs growth or of the genius that first brought him into the public eye with Maxinquaye.
		Whereas past albums were criticized for their failure to develop stagnant moods, this album seems to jump around too much.

		The album Dear Valued Customer (1994) was Snog's strongest release yet, fusing cinematic electronica with a 'spaghetti western' influence that was to become more central to future recordings.
		The chameleon-like Thrussell had remixed projects for the Australian bands TISM and Not Drowning, Waving, and already recorded material for a solo project called Black Lung, which drew on the writings of dissident journalists Noam Chomsky and John Pilger, film-makers Roman Polanski and Oliver Stone, and conspiracy writers William Cooper and Kenn Thomas for inspiration.
		Soma's Hollow Earth (1994) and The Inner Cinema (1996) suggested as-yet unheard elements of Thrussell's brooding psyche.

		The album was markedly different from their earlier releases -- it was the first record they made that incorporated their dissonant, feedback-drenched experimentations within relatively straightforward pop song structures.
		In general (especially early on), their albums were always peppered with great songs -- usually variations on the band's trademark scuzzy sound and sneering attitude -- but rarely sustained momentum all the way through, thanks in part to the band's...

		Rich, the drone provocateur who invented the "sleep concert" in the early '80s, and Roach, proto-ambient pioneer whose Dreamtime Return remains a classic of organic New Age, distill a potent nectar of heartbeat-paced percussion--including rain sticks, clay water pots, kalimbas, and sequenced drums--and reverberant flutes, didgeridoos, and canyon-sized synthesizers.
		While STRATA, the first collaboration between Steve Roach and Robert Rich, sought to peel away the substratum layers of the inner consciousness, SOMA attempts to reconcile those emotions with the outer world through a wondrous, gripping corpus of sound.
		Soma is moderately tribal with nice Earthy textures.

		A new, dance-influenced electronic strain is spreading from Europe, mostly combining soft and subtle percussive grooves overlaid with atmospheric sound shapes, created, for the most part, with a mixture of antique analog synthesizers and the latest state-of-the-art computerized gubbins.
		U.K. label Beyond Records invented the term Ambient Dub in 1992 -- their critically acclaimed records, though hard to get hold of and completely unreleased so far in the USA, have provided us with some of the most innovative and interesting electronic music over the last couple of years.
		The HIA are due to bring their Oscillate party to the U.S. in the fall -- possibly to coincide with the American release of their influential first album Colourform (also to be released on Waveform).

		Soma Recordings wisely give H-Foundation plenty of room to explore on their full-length debut, Environments, a slick and sophisticated house-based triumph.
		It's a signal that H-Foundation won't be confined to the dancefloor as shots of reggae and jazz add to the duo's top-notch house grooves.
		The obvious standout is the thick "New Funk Theory," more Brothers Johnson than Chemical Brothers, and the addition of live instrumentation throughout the album adds to the music's rich and organic feel.

	In Music We Trust - Smashing Pumpkins: Earphoria
		The fifteen-track disc is the Pumpkins at their rawest, playing loud rock 'n' roll in dirty clubs in front of a packed house of screaming fans, the band and the crowd feeding off of each other's energy.
		Always a good band on CD, the Pumpkins, like many other bands, were best experienced live, and, now that they're gone, a live album is your only chance to experience or re-live that.
		The only down fall is the sound quality isn't the best, giving credence to the fact that this is most certainly a live album.

	Steve Roach Biography
		Two years later he created one of the most pivotal albums of his early career, STRUCTURES FROM SILENCE (Fortuna/Projekt) which was one of the landmark ambient releases of the 80's, presenting a new sound for its time which lives on today; the fourth edition was released in 2001.
		Roach's music often shape-shifts into many forms, from serene sound meditations to what is described by critic Dwight Loop as "techno-tribal music for the global village", blending the visceral sounds he designs on synthesizers and samplers with the primordial rhythms of ethnic percussion and other exotic instruments, including the Australian didgeridoo.
		Poet/journalist Thom Jurek characterized the album as "an entirely new path of musical exploration; it is a benchmark for an already prodigious and celebrated career...

		Now, as Kansas had been around for`ages, I expected to see six doddering old men, but instead I was astounded by a tight, talented group presenting the best of American heartland rock and roll.
		As I dug deeper into their oeuvre, however, I wondered why the line-up of the band had changed significantly from 1980 to 1992.
		Kerry Livgren’s departure from Kansas was a rare event--one of the very few times before or since that a mainstream rock musician left the secular rock and roll world to pursue a career in Christian rock.

		Following the worldwide success of their first three albums, including their 1990 debut, 33-45-78, and 1992's Connected, the band, led by rapper Rob B (born Rob Birch) and DJ/producer The Head (born Nick Hallam), essentially disappeared, with only rumors of a return in their wake.
		The events, which include signings of their recent album, In The Mode, and current single, "Who Told You" (RealAudio excerpt), also feature performances by the group — Size, DJs Krust, Die and Suv, MC Dynamite and vocalist Onalee — as well as audience participation.
		In a similar vein to their first two albums, 1998's Not for Threes and '99's Rest Proof Clockwork, the new album is packed with Plaid's warm sense of melody and inventive, pulsing beats.

		POLYSONIK (1992) expands Dibango's palette by featuring British rapper MC Mell 'O', bugles, a battery of percussion, bass clarinet, trombone, and a large chorus of singers, among Dibango's more traditional instrumentation, pushing at the edges of the artist's edgy, jazzy, Afrobeat.
		In fact, it is the mix of the acoustic/organic instrumentation on one hand, and the programming and contemporary production on the other, that gives POLYSONIK its special appeal ("Kwala Kwala", for example, blends traditional township ensemble singing with a deep acid-jazz vibe).
		The hybrid of the entire album is fresh, accessible, and all-inclusive.

		The third full length album from late 1984, also on Terminal Kaleidoscope via Play It Again Sam, is the second LPD release to be named after a tarot card (Curse being the first), but that is about the only parallel that can be drawn between it and the previous releases.
		The next album, released on PIAS in 1988, is stylistically similar to Any Day Now yet also brings another recurring concept into the proceedings, this time an obsession which turns instability onto the persona and ends up causing much mental grief and decay.
		Instead, the album focuses once again on mellow, minimal, often dark electronic pieces, over which he recites, sings, and shrieks a variety of lyrical concerns; his vocals are often distorted but usually subdued.

		Soma should make a good companion to Strata, but the two are very different.

	The History of Rock Music. Daft Punk: biography, discography, reviews, links
		France's Daft Punk (Guy Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter), formed in 1992, debuted with the single New Wave (Soma, 1994), but emerged with the catchy Da Funk (1995), an instrumental novelty that echoed the ones that climbed the charts in the 1980s, from Pop Corn to Pop Muzik.
		If their debut was basically built around the manic (and often lengthy) exploration of one idea, Discovery (Virgin, 2001) appears to be just the opposite concept: the superficial scanning of a number of several different ideas; more tracks and less redundancy, shorter tracks and broader range.
		The first album was a caricature of disco-music, and the sophomore album is no less devoted to retro kitsch (vocoder, disco-era keyboards, vintage guitars).
