![Thievery Corporation -《The Cosmic Game》[MP3!]](http://img.verycd.com/post_thumbs/0705/post-200236-1178175143_thumb.jpg) 专辑类型: Trip-Hop 专辑介绍: 这又是一张全明星专辑,当像"盗贼集团"这样的电音制作团体成名成星之后,每天早上在工作室里要做的就是拆开来自各种大明星的邀请函,要么就是有成迭的不知好坏的作品需要他们来混音。"盗贼集团"的艾里克·希尔顿( Eric Hilton )说:"我们毕竟想让生活独立一些,当然我们也知道做到了现在这个阶段,免不了要把自己做的像个商业音乐人。" 好在新专辑《宇宙谜团》还是有品质的,在"盗贼集团"最新一期的明星合作阵容中,我们看到了三个实力男唱将,他们分别是:来自老牌美国独立摇滚乐队"烈焰红唇"( The Flaming Lips )的主唱韦恩·科伊内( Wayne Coyne );个人事业一直火热的前 "简的嗜好"乐队( Jane's Addiction )主唱派瑞·法瑞尔( Perry Farrell );还有长年致力于挖掘世界各地民族音乐的前纽约新浪潮大团"传声头像"( Talking Heads )的主唱戴维·拜恩( David Byrne )。"盗贼集团"同派瑞·法瑞尔和戴维·拜恩的合作想必是天作之合,因为此二人的个人音乐生涯一直是在民族音乐、世界节拍的大背景发展的;而"盗贼集团" 作为把玩世界音乐多年的电音制作高手,也一定会找来这两位同道中人来壮大自己的事业。而同"烈焰红唇"主唱韦恩·科伊内的合作却有点让人摸不到头脑,于是 "盗贼集团"把问题的答案放到了最开始的位置。在专辑的开篇曲中,我们就听到了由韦恩·科伊演唱的一曲空灵的《率领仇恨的机器闯入太阳的禁区》( Marching The Hate Machines Into The Sun ),飘逸的键盘铺垫出了美伦美幻的听觉情感,这让我的鲜血立即用入大脑,措手不及。 纵观整张专辑,"盗贼集团"的风格没有太多的变化,与之前的名作《镜中阴谋》( The Mirror Conspiracy )来个小比较,我们发现他们再慢慢的回到了以节拍为主的创作路线上,这是值得期待的,因为复古于传统的深度节拍( Deep Beat )肯定是这个夏天的新方向。 There's always been a psychedelic edge to Rob Garza and Eric Hilton's Thievery Corporation project. 2000's Mirror Conspiracy is a downtempo classic precisely because of its druggy expansiveness; sober listeners and saucer-eyed trippers alike could find common ground. Similarly esoteric and nocturnal, The Cosmic Game floats around the room on a wave of mystic beats and guest vocals from Perry Farrell, The Flaming Lips' Wayne Coyne, and David Byrne. Garza and Hilton are less devoted to non-electronic sources here than they were on The Richest Man in Babylon or The Outernational Sound, though their fascination with dub rhythms and world music remains intact. A fair amount of armchair travel is involved as you go from the late, late-night, beach-club-in-Jamaica sound of "Amerimacka," to the Brazilian percussion of "Ambicion Eterna" and "Pela Janela." But more than anything, the record feels like a return to the duo's own ethereal sonic roots. It's a nice blend of their music over the last half-decade for longtime fans, and a hazy glide down the rabbit hole for newcomers. |
