Those who are familiar with their three EPs to date have already come to expect great things of three trapped Tigers. Sometimes the first versions were too dispersed for their own good, but what is their first album, a route or Die, is a coherent and convincing the off collection and the other with relentless and unwavering focus.
The type of electronica put forward by the trio defies classification, but it is perhaps not necessary all look more far that runway two, trade of noise, for a description Specifies what is this band excels at. The only way of title be more appropriate would be if "Intensive" has been tagged on departure. Runway shows also the extensive ground covered dead - it five minutes later, as it moves beats spacey via developed muted palm on full metal riffs and out the other side with a final of increased euphoria. Rogue disciple reveals a darker with sinister spikes staccato high range matched by low rumbles. It is approximately on the point that you begin to wonder where they can go from here. Answer: from and to the top of the most spectacular way.
It would be difficult to single out a musical element which is most impressive, but it is difficult to ignore the work of Adam Betts stick, something that rarely falls below wonder jaw slack in terms of satisfaction. But no single constituent Assembly would be complete without the context of the other. As a chaotic opening passages, less excessive moments show a surprising flexibility, with contemplative leads to the piano immobility of the Zil acting as quiet to the eye of the storm.
Three trapped Tigers are a group who have been unrushed in their career to date, gradually increasing in intrigue and quality with each version, leaving fans wanting - how - and more. With a route or die, they managed to destroy not only their previous versions, but perhaps something else out in 2011. Not only is it one listen to awaken, with lots of fun to be had hearing assessment peak and subtle sections and fade, but it is even more exciting to speculate on what awaits us in the future of this extraordinary group of musicians.
OHM+ the early gurus of electronic music 
This two-man Manchester supergroup--New Order's Bernard Sumner and the Smith's Johnny Marr--made one of the best debuts of the '90s with Electronic. More New Order than Smiths, the album was a blend of plangent fretwork and frenetic sequencing, with bleak lyrics intoned in Sumner's clean, boyish tenor. "Get the Message" was orthodox '80s pop, but the heartbreaking "Gangster" was an electro-rock masterpiece. The album featured engaging cameos from the Pet Shop Boys on "Getting Away with It" and "The Patience of a Saint". --Barney Hoskyns 
After having split in 1976, Manifesto was the come back album and a tour that sold out most venues. Filmed before a packed house in Manchester's Apollo Theatre, Roxy Music played a magical concert that had the fans on their feet throughout! The concert features four of the original band members, Bryan Ferry, Phil Manzanera, Andy Mackay and Paul Thompson.

In 1950, the Columbia University Music Department requisitioned a tape recorder to use in teaching and for recording concerts. In 1951, the first tape recorder arrived, an Ampex 400, and Vladimir Ussachevsky, then a junior faculty member, was assigned a job that no one else wanted: the care of the tape recorder. This job was to have important consequences for Ussachevsky and the medium he developed. Electronic music was born. Over the next ten years, Ussachevsky and his collaborators established the Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center, which Ussachevsky directed for twenty years. It was the first large electronic music center in the United States, thanks to the path-breaking support of the Rockefeller Foundation and encouragement from two of the country’s leading universities. The Center became one of the best-known and most prolific sources of electronic music in the world. All of the music on this historic reissue (originally released on CRI CD 611) is the result of the pioneering work of the Center and its composers. The guest composers and Columbia-associated composers who have produced pieces at the Center include Bulent Arel, Luciano Berio, Mario Davidovsky, Jacob Druckman, Arthur Kreiger, Daria Semegen, Pril Smiley, and Edgard Varese. Ussachevsky’s own students at the Center included Jon Appleton, Wendy Carlos, Charles Dodge, Robert Moog, Alice Shields, Harvey Sollberger, and Charles Wuorinen. Of the seven composers most closely associated with the Center from its early years, six are present on this disc.\ABS\Auto Blog Samurai\data\Electronic Musical World\Buzz Electronic Music\club-to-club_istanbul-2011.jpg "club-to-club_istanbul-2011")
The Sub Rosa label presents the work of Alireza Mashayekhi and Ata Ebtekar/Sote, two essential, key luminaries in the so far very unknown electronic music scene as composed in Iran from the '60s until today. These Iranian music masters work on ancestral structures to create something radically new, travelling around the world as vivid creators, working through the hazards of history. Alireza Mashayekhi (b. 1940) is a pioneer Iranian avant-garde composer whose ideas and works have been performed in his home country and abroad for more than 35 years. Ata Ebtekar aka Sote (b.1972) is an electronic composer, sound artist and recording engineer who is interested in recasting the tuning of Persian classical scales (radif) and melodies from old Persian folk songs within a new electronic framework. Since he has a firm conviction that rules and formulas have to be deconstructed and rethought, he alters some of these modal systems from their original tonality and rhythm. He has released several CDs and vinyls on Dielectric/RLR, Spundae and Warp. Sub Rosa offers you a Persian history lesson that finally exposes this region's rich and significant contribution to the realm of electronic music.
Brad Paisley- This Is Country Music is led by the hit single and title track, "This Is Country Music," which exploded on the country radio charts.

Opening with Clara Rockmore's reworking of Tchaikovsky with the theremin, and finishing with one of Brian Eno's ambient soundscapes, OHM artfully succeeds in its goal of giving a representative (as opposed to the impossible, comprehensive) overview of the first several decades of electronic music. Over 3 discs, 42 compositions, and 96 pages of notes and photos, OHM clearly illustrates the producers' and contributing writers' point that early electronic music is much of the foundation of contemporary music. Herein lies the connective tissue bridging musique concrete, 20th-century classical, electronic experimentation, and the theoretical avant-garde to psychedelia, ambient, dub, techno, electro, and synthpop and the globalization of sound. The groundbreaking uses of loops, sampling, drones, remixes, and cut-and-paste technology are put fully into context. The diversity of music included makes any sort of summation impossible, but that is also the point: electronic music is not really a genre, but an open field of endless possibility. From John Cage's famous "William's Mix" of tape snippets to Karkheinz Stockhausen's electronic orchestral compositions, from David Tudor and Holger Czukay's experiments in unrelated blendings of audio elements to David Behrman's supremely peaceful duet between computers and musicians, the aural renegades on OHM tread where none (save a few of their contemporaries) had gone before. The liner notes convey the incredible amount of hard work and experimentation it took to stitch together many of these pieces in the predigital era. Putting aside the inevitable quibbles about what's missing (much of it due to legal and/or logistical issues), a more complete collection of musical eggheads, eccentrics, and visionaries is hard to imagine. --Carl Hanni
The music on this album exhibits an exciting, wide-open, freewheeling approach to the medium of electronic music which has come to be typical of this genre in the late 1970s. No longer are composers obsessively concerned with the agonizing, expressionistic, and purely "electronic" (synthesized) sound formulas which marked much of this music composed between the mid Fifties and the late Sixties. Instead, today we have composers willing to mix media and sonic materials in thoroughly inventive ways to achieve ends which are new-sounding, and often more engaging, than that of the "academic" avant-garde. This is the outgrowth of a fundamental change in concerns which has been evolving not only among members are some of themost fecund and inspired. These new wources of inspiratin cerainly werer not as widely shared fifteen years agao. Several composers represented here are deeply concerned with Eastern musics and their subsequent metamorphoses into such popular forms as rock and roll. Still others bring to bear a sense of wit and satire, rarely a prominent feature of avant-garde music in the early 1960s. This first anthology of women's electronic music demonstrates great refinement and skill at work in a variety of different styles, several of which are unfamiliar or new even to those who follow contemporary music. The fact that these pieces are more listenable than that of the Sixties avant-garde does not point to a musical regression as some critics have overeagerly assumed when discussing modern works using, say, consonant harmonic structures. -Charles Amirkhanian, August 1977 (This recording was orginally issued as CRI CD 728)
The eagerly awaited second artist album from Above & Beyond, the follow up to the band's acclaimed debut album Tri-State, now widely recognised as one of the landmark electronic albums of the last decade.
