Cosmic Mysteries Sampler CD (Rock Dog Records) This sampler CD contains sixteen tracks from new, unknown artists. The styles range from New Age to full-on dance techno. The album starts out a little mellow, with Nick Farr and Jeff Marsey both displaying their talents as New Age artists. As the disc progresses, it seems to move towards a more aggressive, dancable feel. Brain Storm’s “Salve Sancta” stands out, as do the two tracks from the Minimalistic Organ Trio, who somehow combine techno and blues/rock Hammond organ. If you can’t find this sampler in your local record store, you can order it directly from Rock Dog Records ($10.00 post-paid) by calling (800) 339-0567 or by sending a check/money order to: Rock Dog Records, PO Box 3687, Hollywood, CA 90078. It’s worth the trouble of tracking it down. John Synclair |
