Vespertine»rank: 2490par: Bjork
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Ever since Björk's vital, effusive 1993 debut, her music has been increasingly intimate, gently private, and concerned with seclusion. lt's typical then that Vespertine's first single is called 'Hidden Place.' The studious solitude is rewarding, though. Vespertine is a lush, gorgeous swell of midpace electronica, symphonic strings, and Björk's uniquely alien, spectral vocals. There are fantastical wonders here. 'Cocoon' (another eulogy to withdrawal from the world) is delicate as a breath, Björk sounding too fragile ... |

Walking Wounded»rank: 13446par: Everything But the Girl
Chroniques et points de vue: essential recording:Ben Watt and Tracey Thorn of Everything but the Girl have done their share of style-hopping, from jazz pop to Britpop to orchestral pop to contemporary R&B to jazzy R&B. Their seventh album, 1996's Walking Wounded, finds the duo landing, good as new, onto the dance floor with a batch of songs based around techno-derived beats. The shift toward electronics may seem extreme for a group that courted adult audiences, but given the huge ... |

Karma»rank: 676par: Delerium
Chroniques et points de vue:From :The novelty was stripmined from ethnobeat pop long ago, and this skin-deep confection is surprising only in its lack of edge and invention. 0n the plus side, the melodies are textured and lush, the beats entrancing, and a parade of gifted singers--Kristy Thirsk, Jacqui Hunt, and Sarah McLachlan included--bill and coo impressively. Lead single 'Euphoria (Firefly)' has spark and spirit, while 'Enchanted' and 'Duende' are strong vehicles for Thirsk and Camille Henderson respectively. --Jeff Bateman |

Carnival Featuring Refugee Al»rank: 8048par: Wyclef Jean
Chroniques et points de vue:From :'Taste the culture, know who you are,' exhorts a voice in the opening seconds of The Carnival. While Fugees mastermind Wyclef sets a high goal for his first solo album, essentially a follow-up to the Brooklyn hip-hoppers' multiplatinum The Score, he never succumbs to feel-goodism or preachiness while traveling the songlines. lncluding everything from over-the-top operatic scatting to Bee Gees samples and Celia Cruz as part of its rhythm nation, The Carnival proves that, 'Killing ... |

Version 2.0»rank: 11353par: Garbage
Chroniques et points de vue:From :lt's not that Garbage is doing anything particularly new. At times, singer Shirley Manson borrows Chrissie Hynde's phrasing, Patti Smith's rock beat poetry, and Brian Wilson's chorus from 'Don't Worry Baby.' But producer Butch Vig provides a modern sheen to Version 2.0 that makes it sound fresh and distinctly modern. Purists may blanch--the album is a hybrid of rock guitars, dance rhythms, and pop choruses--but songs such as 'l Think l'm Paranoid' (a rip of ... |
