17 Aug 2005 - Gary Numan - Living Ornaments

Written by Pmachine posted in Very Old News 17 Aug 2005, 00:20 598 Views Rating: 0 (0 Rates)
On August 1st 2005, three Gary Numan albums have been made available on CD, and in stores for the first time. Living Ornaments '79 and '81 have previously been available as Mail Order only CD's and via specialist sources, however, Living Ornaments '80, gets its first ever release.

Living Ornaments '80 features songs from Gary Numan's 'Teletour' - the 'machine-music' period, when Numan was at the peak of his commercial success. Unfortunately, the multi-tracks for the 1980 show have never been located, and the show that featured on the original vinyl of LO '80, has never been released in its entirety. Recently, a recording of a complete 'Teletour' show - a live reference mix, made by the sound crew - became available, which, with some sonic tweaking, is of release quality.

Living Ornaments '80 is now a double CD, featuring the original 10 tracks from the vinyl release (newly remastered from the mixing tapes), plus this complete show - giving a total of 29 tracks.

Some reviews of Living Ornaments '80

"this is a real treat for synth lovers everywhere - the authentic sound of 80s electronic music, and one not to be missed for those who wonder where the dark side of electronic music originated from. So sit back and enjoy a lashing of tuneful, avante garde, synth pop misery - you won't regret it."

"The recording lifted from the UK leg effortlessly captured the Numan phenomenon in full flight as Gary and the band powered through turbo charged versions from his exemplary back catalogue to scenes of pure, unadulterated pop hysteria."

10 Aug 2005 - Kelly Osbourne - New Single and CD

Written by Pmachine posted in Very Old News 10 Aug 2005, 17:46 626 Views Rating: 0 (0 Rates)

Kelly Osbourne - One Word
(12"& 2xCDs)
??

Since topping the charts with her dad Ozzy in 2003 with ‘Changes’, Kelly Osbourne has taken time off from her music career to star in the hit US teen drama ‘Life As We Know It’. All those angst-ridden storylines seem to have matured Kelly. First single, ‘One Word’, marks this change in direction and tone for Kelly, having shed the teenage tantrums of her debut album for this new electro-tinged sound, with ‘One Word’ being a slick and polished slice of 80s dance and futuristic pop (with a hint of ‘Fade To Grey’ by Visage) and produced by the ubiquitous Linda Perry.
Kelly has decided to prove all her doubters wrong by changing musical direction and releasing one of the catchiest pop albums so far this year.

With tracks co-written and produced by Linda Perry (Christina Aguilera, Pink, Gwen Stefani), ‘Sleeping In The Nothing’ is what you’d expect from such an uber-talent; a slick and polished masterpiece, blending 80s electro-pop and rock elements to splendid effect. Tracks like ‘Uh Oh’, ‘Redlight’ and ‘Edge Of Your Atmosphere’ bounce along with just the right amount of synths and infectious retro beats, whereas ‘Secret Lover’ and ‘Don’t Touch Me’ hint towards the punk-rock aggressiveness Kelly displayed on her debut album. Lyrically the album proves how much Kelly has grown and matured over the past two years, but still manages to captivate her riotous and pleasure-seeking persona. Whilst the blatant change of musical direction might come as a surprise to Kelly Osbourne fans, ‘Sleeping In The Nothing’ is crammed full of infectious and catchy songs.
