"Short Stories, Infinite Corridors" by Sebastian Lorefice (Electronic Instrumental artist from Australia (AU))

"Short Stories, Infinite Corridors" by the artistic Sebastian Lorefice is a spell-binding collection of epic electronic soundscapes. The musicianship on this CD is very impressive. "Soldier," the opening track, sets a perfect theatrical mood for the rest of this CD. Perhaps the most compelling part of these tunes is their ever-changing structure – changes in tempo, driving instruments, drum arrangements, and emotional atmospheres progress seamlessly and effortlessly! "Espionage" perfectly illustrates Sebastian's skill for creating music that conjures up a specific mental image. This track appropriately radiates a dark atmosphere of mystery, conspiracy, and secrecy. Even more impressive is this CD's quality production! Fans of electronica, jazz, ambient, and instrumental music will loose themselves in this mystic adventure!

"Scarlet Sundance" by Peripheral Bliss (Ambient Band from Portland, Oregon (OR))

"Scarlet Sundance" is an ambient CD with tranquil, flowing tracks. The strength in the CD lies in the many keyboard/synthesizer sounds layered on top of each other and transitioning between each other to create tracks that gradually progress and change to create a beautiful and imaginative soundscape. Close your eyes and listen to these tracks and feel yourself floating into the sky. The tracks on this CD are excellent as background music as you go through your daily tasks, if you want to get inspired, or if you want to relax. Our favorite track is the title track, with its interesting instrumentation changes including memorable bass loops, guitar loops, and percussive work.

"Deliverance" by Rob E C (Dance/Electronica Artist from Los Angeles, California (CA))

Rob E C's "Deliverance" is an energetic electronica/dance album that is absolutely addictive! From its very first song to its closing notes, "Deliverance" takes listeners on an audio adventure marked by unprecedented energy and pure fun! Driven by unforgettable beats and melodies, every song on this CD will bring out the party-goer in anyone! Rob's vocals are simply stunning- full of personality, and uncommonly passionate. "Equality" demonstrates the lyrical skill that graces the entire CD, even while diverging from the central theme of love and romance to bring attention to the ever-so relevant issue of injustice. Perhaps the most remarkable aspect of this CD is its unrivaled professional production, making it ready for the mainstream dance floor! "Deliverance" will compel fans of Richard Marx, Stevie B., and Jonny O. to get up on their feet and dance the night away!

"Star Wreck" by Progenitor (Electronica Band from Texas (TX))

Trance-inducing is perhaps the best term that describes the electronica collection "Star Wreck" by Progenitor. Drawing a lot of influence from the experimental genre, these songs are unpredictable, making them refreshingly unique. From start to finish, "Star Wreck" employs the use of unfamiliar sounds in a way that is unique and creative, to say the least. The defining drum tracks in songs like "Deep End" take the center stage in most of these tunes. Moreover, the production of this CD allows all focus to be on the music alone, which is what many consider 'successful.' "Star Wreck" by Progenitor is a great electronica album that will fulfill the music desires of anyone who enjoy tunes with great creativity and pleasant surprises.
