Release Date: October 15th, 2007
At long last it is here- Shulman's much awaited fourth album- "Endless Rhythms of the Beatless Heart"! After establishing themselves as a leading group in the downtempo electronica world and defying genre definitions, the Shulman duo take the next step and deliver an album, which we at Aleph Zero feel we can honestly say is going to revolutionize the electronic music world.
"Endless Rhythms of the Beatless Heart" comes after 4 years of hard work and offers a combination of electronic and acoustic music that creates something never before heard. Using their unrivaled mastery of sonic manipulation and hosting an impressive cast of highly skilled musicians, playing a vast array of musical instruments from east and west, Shulman manage to construct a musical journey the likes of you've never encountered before.
With this album Shulman once again succeed in building a musical bridge between East and West, Classic and Contemporary, Past and Future. Blending revolutionary hi-tech sounds, classical Indian, Arab & Greek music, Contemporary Jazz and much more, they weave a complex and detailed musical pattern that rests upon the world around us and adds to it an infinite depth and a magical halo.

Live band = the win. Really good stuff.
About the album: i've listened to it once and it was very good. The album is impressive, it's packed with instruments, sounds and performances, you can really tell that a lot of time and effort went into it. The palette of sounds is incredibly rich, it's traditional, ethnic, electronic and experimental at the same time. Sometimes i think there was too much going on in the same track , some things sounded a little random which made the whole appear a little disjointed. But remember these are my first impressions, some things might stick better after a few listens, i don't expect any seriously good music to be instantly rewarding. What i also like is that the album doesn't try so hard to fit in with the cliched "psy-chill" or dub labels but instead does its own thing.
Favorite tracks: "Transmissions In Bloom" and "One Step Closer". |
