Review of "Black Canvas"
|
By: Hilarie Grey
asily the most absorbing album in this month's crop, Project Lo's Black Canvas mixes world beat textures and ambient sound akin to art house rockers Brian Eno and Laurie Anderson into a darkly mysterious musical environment. Bon Lozaga adds new dimension to his post modern chamber ensemble with vocalist Happy Rhodes, another avant garde favorite. Her deeply haunting read of Peter Gabrial's "Mercy Street" holds an even greater feel of mystery and loss than the original. The many layers of Lozaga's Black Canvas demand full attention, and repeated listenings to take in the whole.
