Lemon Jelly Ky - Lemon Jelly

December 23, 2003

This is a collection of LemonJelly's EPs. It is excellent modern trance/ambience - relaxing, yet without being boring or banal. Standout is "His Majesty King Raam".

As an unusual aside, it has some of the most wonderful sleeve and insert art I have ever seen in a CD.

- rating 7/10

Atanarjuat the Fast Runner -

December 22, 2003

Atanarjuat the Fast Runner is a story set in an ancient inuit community. Atanarjuat, of gentle nature and skilled at running and hunting, wins the love of a woman bethrothed to the son of the tribal leader. The story is then of betrayal, revenge and, unexpectedly, mercy.

The first film produced in the Inuit language, it provides and extraordinary look into the Inuit way of life, as well as a great story without the usual hollywood formula. Who would have thought the ancient Inuit made themselves sunglasses from bone? It received the 2002 Cannes Camera d'Or. A wonderful film.

- rating 9/10

Dial M for Monkey - Bonobo

December 11, 2003

Dial M for Monkey is the latest CD to hit my shelf - a lounge/ambient mood collection, it reminds me of Thievery Corporation or Kinobe. Chill out, open the paper, reach for the cup of coffee and before you know it life's pretty damn fine.

- rating 9/10
