Nikki Beach, Vol. 1: A Chill Out Session features a number of down-tempo house tracks mixed together into an extended, listener-friendly mix. Some of these producers — Jazzanova, King Kooba, Ursula Rucker — are well regarded within the house community and recognized for their quality productions. The music tends to delve into the deeper side of house, sounding often like an Om Records or Naked Music mix. Though it's not a spectacular mix, Nikki Beach is an enjoyable mix that stays true to its "chill out" intentions. — Jason Birchmeier

IBIZARRE Records

Throughout the 1990s, the New York-based Instinct label released a dizzying amount of electronica, much of it ambient in nature. Perhaps more than anything else except their lock on Moby's early recordings, Instinct became known for their ambient recordings as they released one ambient compilation after another — even if none of these compilations particularly proved to be landmarks in the long run. Yet when Instinct eventually sorted through their cluttered back catalog of ambient releases and assembled the Ambient Boxed best-of compilation in 2001, it became clear that they indeed had released some amazing ambient music in the '90s. Sure, there aren't many big names — notable exceptions being Moby, Sutekh, Terre Thaemiltz, and Taylor Deupree. In fact, many of the featured artists will be no names to contemporary listeners; ambient was never a particularly accommodating genre for commercially minded artists. Still, comprised of superstars or no names, the music is what matters most, and Instinct assembled some quality ambient music for the boxed set. Most of the music came about in the '90s before the glitch/laptop movement. As a result, nearly everything is very synth-based, and in most cases characterized by an analog feel. This will be fine for most listeners, particularly those with a taste for melodic synth washes, but there will also be some who will find this music a little too dated, particularly those accustomed to the anything-goes approach employed by post-2000 laptop producers. Either way, though, there's no denying the collection's historical significance: It no doubt defines an important era in the quick development of electronica, the mid- to late-'90s era when electronica suddenly became "the next big thing" — an exciting yet brief era before everything splintered at the end of the decade with the advent of the laptop culture. (The four-disc Ambient Boxed is also available in four separate one-disc volumes, none being particularly better than the others.) — Jason Birchmeier

REO SPEEDWAGON
Группа была основана в далеком 1968 году двумя студентами Иллинойсского университета, Нилом Даути (клавишные) и Аланом Гратзером (ударные). По окончании универа парни познакомились с неизвестным тогда еще никому менеджером Ирвином Азоффом (впоследствии прославившимся своей работой с "Eagles" и "Steely Dan"). Ирвин и организовал первые гастроли группы по среднему западу США. В начале 70-х в состав "Reo speedwagon" на постоянной основе также вошли гитарист Гэри Ричрат, басист Грег Филбин и певец Терри Латрелл. Этот состав в 1971 году выпустил на "Epic Records" свой дебютный альбом. Первый виниловый блин оказался комом и расстоенный Латрелл покинул команду. Его сменил фолковый певец и гитарист Кевин Кронин, практически не имевший опыта работы в рок'н'ролле.

Вторая пластинка оказалась ненамного лучше первой и Кевину указали на дверь. Следующим фронтменом "Reo speedwagon" стал Майк Мерфи, дебютировавший на альбоме "Ridin' the Storm Out". Этот диск стал первым релизом группы, попавшим в биллбордовские чарты.

Мерфи поучаствовал в записи еще двух альбомов, однако так и не смог вывести команду на качественно новый уровень. Вместо того, чтобы взять кого-нибудь новенького, команда опять пригласила к себе Кронина. В 1976-м в группе также появился новый басист Брюс Холл. Успех начал проявляться тогда, когда "Reo speedwagon" нашли свою нишу, начав исполнять мелодичный рок и баллады, так нравившиеся девушкам. В результате альбом 1976 года уже пользовался хорошим спросом, а следующие две пластинки получили платиновый статус. Хотя "Nine Lives" также хорошо продавался и группа потихоньку прогрессировала, ничто не предвещало выхода такого супербоевика каким оказался диск 1980 года "Hi Infidelity".

Альбом содержал такие хиты, как "Keep on Loving You", "Don't Let Him Go" и "Take it on the Run", в течении 1981 года постоянно звучавшие в эфире. В итоге было продано свыше 9000000 экземпляров пластинки, а "Reo speedwagon" приобрели статус хедлайнеров.

Следующие два альбома продолжили успех коллектива с хитами "Good Trouble", "Wheels are Turnin'', "Keep the Fire Burnin" и "Can't Fight this Feeling", однако к 1987 году в творчестве команды наметился спад и диск "Life As We Know It" не содержал достойных композиций. В коллективе начались разборки, в результате которых команду покинули Ричрат и Гратзер. Новыми участниками стали гитарист Дэйв Амато, ранее работавший с Тедом Ньюджентом и ударник Брайан Хитт (экс-"Wang Chung"). "Reo speedwagon" продолжили выпускать пластинки, однако интерес к подобного рода музыке пошел на спад. Лишь в конце 90-х старые группы стали вновь популярны и только тогда команда оттянулась на полную катушку, давая концерты вместе с такими коллективами как "Styx", "Fleetwood Mac", "Foreigner", "Journey", "Lynyrd Skynyrd", "Bad Company".

В 90-х же было издано несколько различных компиляций от "Reo speedwagon". В начале нового тысячелетия вышли также два концертника.

Vargas Blues Band



Отзывы с Блюзового Фан - форума.....

Вообще-то, Vargas Blues Band для меня из тех исполнителей, чьими альбомами хочется пополнять свою коллекцию. Из 10 его пластинок я слушал 6 и ни об одной из них не могу сказать, что слабо и неинтересно. Наоборот, радует их органичность и оригинальность, а блюз и фламенко воедино - это действительно неповторимо!
Да и участие в записях Vargas'a, приглашение его на совместные концерты от настоящих грандов блюза - это ли не дань почтения этому музыканту.
Ниже привожу немного инфо об этом исполнителе со своим (субъективным, конечно ) мнением

"Засветился" Ксавьер Варгас в 1991, когда вышел его первый альбом "All around blues", тепло встреченный критиками, назвавшими Варгаса одним из лучших испанских блюзовых гитаристов. Ксавьер перебирается из Мадрида в США, Мемфис, и в 1992 появляется второй альбом, "Madrid - Memphis" (который с легкой руки продавщицы и по воле доброй Вашей души появился в Bluesbox'e )и в записи которого принимали участие Louisiana Red и Carey Bell. Оба альбома стали самыми продаваемыми блюзовыми альбомами в Испании, а стиль музыканта стали называть blues latino. Вот так и вышел в 1994 третий альбом, "Blues Latino", в котором также засветились Chris Rea, Junior Wells, и который насыщен влиянием на блюз разнообразных музыкальных течений (соул, фламенко, рок). Осенью этого же года по приглашению Карлоса Сантаны группа гастролирует в Аргентине и участвует в записи альбома "Santana Brothers" со своим инструментальным хитом "Blues Latino".
Четвертый альбом "Texas Tango" был записан в Аустине и Мемфисе (продюсер Jim Gaines) и выпущен в 1995г. На обложке появляются такие имена как Larry Thurston и Preston Shannon, Double Trouble (этот альбом, пожалуй, потяжелее, пожестче, чем другие, но лично мне он нравится)
В 1996 Варгас много гастролирует по Европе - Франция, Испания, Португалия, Швейцария (Montreux Jazz Festival), а в июле Сантана приглашает его выступить в совместном концерте в Париже, который проходит с громадным успехом, по откликам прессы, "просто шокировав аудиторию виртуозной игрой гитарного дуэта Сантана-Варгас". В 1998 Сантана вновь приглашает Варгаса на свои концерты в Мадриде и снова в Париже. В том же году Варгас также участвует в концертах The Artist -known before as Prince.
В перерывах бурной концертной деятельности Варгас мотается между Мадридом и Техасом, Флоридой и Нью Йорком и в начале 1997 г. выпускает свой пятый альбом, "Gipsy Boogie" с кучей приглашенных музыкантов разных стилей (альбом особо будет интересен для любителей блюз+фламенко).
Шестой альбом "Feedback" был записан в Англии в 1998 совместно с продюссером Ian Taylor (Gary Moore, Dylan, M.Knopfler, Cheaptrick), причем первый его релиз был как двойной CD, включая альбом "Bluestrology" (седьмая пластинка Варгаса, вышедшая как соло издание в 2000г.)
"Feedback", на мой взгляд, самый не блюзовый альбом Варгаса (не случайно на обложке диска напечатано просто Vargas, а не Vargas Blues Band, вокал как на английском, так и на испанском языках), но слушаешь все равно с интересом и удовольствием!
В 1999 Варгас снова вернулся к активной концертной деятельности. Среди самых значительных событий - выступления в Buddy Guy's legends клубе в Чикаго - как сольные с приглашенными Larry McCray, Sugar Blue и др., так и в качестве гостя в концерте Chris Duarte. Ian Taylor записал и спродюсировал эти концерты, добавил концертные записи в Мадриде - и в результате два новых live альбома Варгаса "Madrid-Chicago (live)" (1999) и "Last night" (2002).
И еще одна работа Варгаса - "The Best of Vargas Blues Band" (2001) - отличный сборник его хитов, который украсит любую блюзовую коллекцию

Если есть интерес, подготовлю, релиз......

Stéphane Pompougnac

At the age of 18, Stéphane Pompougnac made his DJ debut in clubs such as the Ubu, the Colony, and the Dream in Bordeaux, France, during the mid-'80s. After finishing his studies and national service, he spent six months in London before returning to Paris in 1992 where he mixed at clubs, such as Queen, Folies Pigalle, the Locomotive, and Privilege. One year later, he became the resident DJ at les Bains et Douche . Albert De Paname ostensibly first introduced him to Jean-Louis Costes although Pompougnac had worked as a waiter for Costes some ten years prior at Cafe Costes in Les Halles. This time, however, Costes offered Pompougnac a more coveted position: resident DJ at the famous Hotel Costes. He accepted.
Hotel Costes is one of France's most famous and regularly sports stars of the film and fashion world. Pompougnac released his first CD in 1999, titled Café Costes. Pompougnac's second CD, Costes, La Suite, met with more success and the song "Sympatique" was used for a car ad in France sending record sales over 100,000. His first two albums were released in France through Barclay Universal; his increased success, however, saw a deal with MSI for his third compilation, Etage 3, released in October 2000. His first three compilations together sold nearly half a million copies. Pompougnac also spins for Les Venues de la Mode (the fashion Oscars) and has provided the music for various fashion shows by Gucci and Yves Saint-Laurent.

On their first album, the members of Cairo sounded like a hard rock/heavy metal band gone proggy — the progressive rock elements often felt forced and overdone. On Conflict and Dreams they showed surprising maturity, with both sides of their background now firmly integrated. Problems in song structures were also resolved. "Angels and Rage" is a model of dynamic, non-linear progressive rock song. Its chorus is a fine piece of stadium rock-meets-prog rock, with elements of Boston, Journey, and the Dream Theater coming to mind as one listens to Bret Douglas' powerful voice. The other highlight on this album is the 17-minute "Western Desert," an impressive showcase where keyboardist Mark Robertson and guitarist Alec Fuhrman play a game of tug-of-war, alternately stirring the piece into the direction of Yes and Emerson, Lake & Palmer — ELP wins the battle in the brilliant finale. Robertson throws more Emerson-inspired organ and piano episodes in "Then You Were Gone" and "Valley of the Shadow," the latter often sounding like a 1990s hard rock-tinged reworking of "Karn Evil 9, First Impression: Part I" — exciting and gloriously pompous, except for the disappointing finale. The music is tightly written and performed. Given that gratuitous moments of virtuosity are an integral part of the genre, here they have the merit of fitting the music. Conflict and Dreams remains Cairo's best effort and, despite its lack of originality, one of the very good prog rock albums of the 1990s. — Franзois Couture
