Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
There's no shortage of melodramatic goth music out there, but that doesn't prevent Soil and Eclipse from adding to the pile. Meridian, the band's sophomore effort, sees Jay Tye and partner G.W. Childs approaching goth from the electro perspective; the result is a well-sequenced keyboard- and drum-machine-based musical attack that, unfortunately, is weakened by Tye's David Gahan-meets-Andrea Bocelli vocals. Weakened? Make that mortally wounded. The cheese gauge is well within the red on tracks such as "Piano Song" and "Divinity." But when Tye sticks to the Depeche Mode side of things, you begin to appreciate his vocal training. "The Thief of Always," helped along by plucked strings and a crisp beat, features a mostly restrained vocal effort and "Exile," though it wallows in the '80s vibe of the Thompson Twins, isn't a bad demonstration of Tye's non-wince-inducing range. Sensitive goth for sensitive souls. --Steve Landau

5 out of 5 stars Definitely something to remember.......1999-11-01

I watched the movie, and remembered it BECAUSE of the music. Superb !!! Exquisite combination of cello and oboe makes the central theme (and track) something to be remembered for your whole life. I really recommend it !

5 out of 5 stars "The Secret Agent" by Philip Glass.......1999-06-16

This, in my humble opinion, is one of Glass' most ingenoius works. Set to the athmospheric surreality of 19th century london, this album seamlessly juxtaposes traditional melodic harmonies with colorations that are distinctively Glass. I ould recommend this record to any audionphile or Glass aficionado

    Album Description

    Sophomore album for German house/techno artist originally released in 1998. The majority of the album is a cross between deep house and Detroit techno with the exception of the earthy breakbeat track 'What's Your Number', disco-funk 'Followed' and quasi-post-rock 'Disco Love'. Highlights include 'Cold Wait' and 'Flatlet'

    5 out of 5 stars POOOOLEEEEEEYY!!!.......2004-07-10

    Ian Pooley's "Meridian" is how every house disc should be done, with funky basslines, nigh-perfect melodies and relentless beats that scream for airplay on your stereo! Pooley's music isn't "mindless" house music at all--it's warm, sensual and inviting--perfect enough for a night out or in!

    5 out of 5 stars very nice album.......2003-01-10

    some beautiful house tracks are in this album.. there are some repetitive tracks but the album is balanced by some special ones, notably: whats your number, flatlet and relief action.. very nice

    3 out of 5 stars House Arrest.......2000-12-03

    I picked up Meridian because I had read that Pooley was an influence on some Latin bands that I follow. What Pooley presents is credible and journeyman House music. The grooves are intracate but repitive. I found thebands that Pooley has influenced to be more interesting than Pooley's own music. I have to admit that I am not a fan of straight House music. Although I do enjoy House-influenced music. I would recommend checking out Plastilina Mosh or Titan.

Successes include scores for films such as The Duellists and A Month in the Country, both of which won prizes. Blake has written many concert works, including his piano concerto for Princess Diana commissioned by the Philharmonia Orchestra.

            Defenitely taking cue from the bands that have spawned and taken from them. Like in eye of the storm keeping their sound but integrating what they have learned since. Symphonic with an shoegaze feel. (Red Sparrowes who have members of neurosis.)Now when i say shoegaze. Like warm layers of noise with simple fractured chords wrapping you in sheets. Beautiful stuff.

            Allen & Allen blend the mellow contemporary jazz flavor with both traditional hymns and new anointed compositions. I can dig it!!!! This CD is excellent for meditating or quiet study. I especially like "When We Praise". "Jesus, The Mention Of Your Name" also ranks as one of my favorite cuts. The Kibble Brothers, from Take Six, show up on one track, adding their unique jazz signature sound. Not quite as funky nor as bold as Ben Tankard, yet they do what fits them. Love Sweet Love is a solid addition to the collection of any spirit-filled jazz connisseur!
