My My "Songs for the Gentle" Album Review

a wonderful cd
American Dreamer: Songs of Stephen Foster; Thomas Hampson; Jay Unger; Molly Mason This is simply a wonderful cd. I have two copies one for home and one for the car.Hampson not only sings these songs beautifully,he caresses the words. Not since john Mc cormack has a vocalist had such a way with telling a story in music.

Todd Edwards "Odyssey" Album Review

Great, but...
Odyssey is a great album if you're a fan of his remixing work, using amazing sampling techniques to build and reinvent many songs. On this album of originals, the style is still the same, which is great, because that's what you'd be buying the album for.

That said, many of the tracks start sounding similar after a while, and once his effects are introduced, the songs stay the same until their short conclusion (most are only 3.5 minutes max). There are also religious undertones throughout all tracks too, which offset the 'club' sound of the tracks - an odd blend. And another thing... the quality of the beats/CD was strange too. It might just be the process that the samples go through, but there was hardly any kick or bass range when listening back, and are some tracks in mono??

Don't get me wrong, I totally love Todd Edwards' style - I would love to be a fly on the wall to see how he creates all his tracks - but some of the tracks lack scope in diversity, and the quality of the tracks left me a bit deflated. I was all ready to sink my teeth into some serious bass, but then... it wasn't there!

Still, I'll recommend some standout tracks: The Journey, Like A Fire, Thru The Pain, Show The Way, Agony, Far Away...

Ultimately, if you enjoy his remixes, then definately go for this CD. While there are some (nitpicky) issues, it is a good disc of tracks showcasing a distinct style.
