This Tuesday January 27th - Glenn Love Glenn Love's recent live performances have emphasized a more downtempo ambient chill factor than the dark ambient trance found on his first CD "Cruel Utopia". Over the past year Glenn has been playing at Dark Rave on a regular basis and promoted his new material in Europe last summer. A new release is currently in the works. For his live shows, Glenn's original loops, sounds and beats are blended with live improvision over sequences. Low-key lazers and a little fog for atmosphere are also planned. http://www.glennlove.com Between Sets CD - "Life Sequence" by Steve Roach (Timeroom) Burbling, percolating, interlocked sequences are the heart and the heartbeat of this new collection of electronic works by Roach recorded from 1988 to 2003. Two of the recent pieces are collaborations with Paul Ellis of Dweller at the Threshold. http://www.steveroach.com . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Comprised mostly of instrumental pieces, "Bioluminescence" grows & develops on the ideas of Silercord's first album and presents an even more focused vision of wonder rising & falling. Each song (numbered conveniently from i to viii) is a thing of sweeping, undulating charms, where sound passes gently through the songs, like phantoms passing through the world of the living. A bell here, an imagined voice there, it all adds up to create something almost alive in it's beauty. I've been listening to Silvercord's work pretty intently for a while now, and I can assure you that they are well worth checking out. Rarely have I come across a band with such an ability to not only create a mood or an image, but an entire environment as well. On "Bioluminescence" there are worlds within worlds, each more beautiful than the last, and each worth exploring for yourself. rik maclean - rik@pingthings.com Send an e-mail to pingthings-subscribe@yahoogroups.com for updates on *all* the latest releases on sale at *ping things* http://www.pingthings.com = ambient + electronic + chill things . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
