Blu Mar Ten - Black Water
|
| Great Groove Album |
|
|
After listening to this addition of Blu Mar Ten, I have to say it's one of my favorite additions to EFM. The songs are all different in their mood and the vocals are extremely smooth. Black Water has a smoother beat to it, while Anytime Soon will get you moving in your seat. You can't go wrong choosing anything off of this album!

Some of the tracks are moderately good.
But then, there are some that sound like a Old Navy or Target television commercial...A little too corny.
Just my opinion - FWIW.

E.S. Posthumus - Cartographer
|
| Cartographer by E.S. Posthumus |
|

E.S. Posthumus has worked their magic once again with their second album; Cartographer is definitely superior to its predecessor (which was still genius of course). Cartographer is a 2 CD collection with each CD being unique and being able to stand alone as a single album, yet at the same time, each CD is a good reflection of the other. The first CD, while quite different from Unearthed (their first album), is a unique blend of many different ethnic orchestral sounds, with lyrics sung by the beautiful (both in appearance and sound) Luna Sans. The lyrics were written by the Vonlichten brothers (the founders of E.S. Posthumus) in a Latin-derivative language that they created especially for this album. In order, these songs tell the story of the inhabitants of the island of Numa, a fictional ancient civilization, their rise as a civilization, their exploration of the world, and their eventual fall. Listening to this CD, it is hard not to be swept away in the spirit of exploration, and to see what they may have seen. It is truly beautiful music.
The second CD is much more akin to Unearthed, and is a remix of every song on the first CD, along with two bonus tracks. It follows the same cinematic orchestral tone of Unearthed, but at the same time it creates its own new tone. It would likely be easy to tell the difference between an Unearthed song and a Cartographer song. Cartographer “Peri Reis Remixes” makes use of a grand choir with almost every track, and does not have any of Luna Sans vocals. To me, this CD seems another adaptation of the story of Numa, even if it is in a different order, and while it may sound very different from the first CD, the same spirit of exploration, hope, and adventure is present. Together, these two CDs form one of the greatest albums that I have listened to, and one that has quickly become one of my favorites. My favorite songs from this album include: Oraanu, Mosane, and Marunae (along with their remixes).

A most excellent mix of trance/dance and deep house. Every track on the CD is good. Enjoy.
