Tosca -- J.A.C. (2005)
No dub this time, closer to Peace Orchestra and K&D, still kicking in to great effect.
Wagon Christ -- Sorry I Make You Lush (2004)
A trifle more production-oriented than other Luke Vibert experiments (yet not a genre holiday, as amg.com deftly puts it), it shows some resemblance with '70's low budget sci fi ost's to fully satisfy my aural needs. However, is it just me or at times Luke Vibert is really playing DJ Shadow? Just asking.
Favorite track Qadra y discos.
Finally, Lisa Gerrard (oh, beibiiiiiiiiiiiiiii) & Patrick Cassidy - Immortal Memory (2004). Back in the days I would fanatically listen to DCD, no one else knew about them, but now every one knows - or should know - she helped scoring The Gladiator, The Insider, Whale Raider, Hijo de la Luna, and etc; the Song of Amergin the album's somewhat and funereal opening track is also on King Arthur, so on and so forth. As a whole, the album sounds a little plain, without reaching the trance-like qualities of such unearthly masterpieces as Aion (I'm referring to this album because of the same faux medieval cum celtic thematic influence). Lisa delivers (Maranatha/Come Lord) yet she puts in no despair and that's why I feel somewhat cheated. There is no Summoning of the Muse, my friends. Just some film score without the film. I fucking love her, though. Love eternal, Lisa babe.
