OUR SOUND:
A trippy, mind altering experience, we suggest you buckle your safety belts, and brace yourself for a sonic experience never before realised.

Imagine a pulsing baseline transcending your harshest memories of your harshest realities into a soothing sublime state where liquid guitar fills and ethereal piano chords take you elsewhere but still remind you of the pain from whence you came.

Imagine a funky beat boppin' under somber lyrics crying out in pain, careful not to burn, but ever so eager to move you to reflection.

Imagine a funky groove that has you milking every inch of a sweat soaked dance floor while all the coolies at the bar bop their heads to the funky beat permeating the very core of their souls.

We invite you to enter the world of chamberlain bleu, "where it's always nighttime."

"As i fall alseep, i dance in my dreams...."

"whatever you say, whatever you do, albeit no matter how small you may think it is, does somehow affect everyone in the world - for we all are the sum of all our parts."

I Loved this CD. I listened to it over and over without any skips. It's very soft and romantic, smooth. I can't get enough of the Melo sound coupled with smooth music. Definitely on my favorites list.

Track 7, Inluences of Brian Eno Taking of Tiger Mountain, Blackwater on Valium. Easy listening - mail vocal. Track 8 Psychopath, sounds like Early Time Fin Split Enz meets Coctuea Twins. Easy Listening - Trippy., For Sydney-siders - 2CH meets 2JJJ

Sweet without syrup, deep without drowning

One of my great pleasures from CDBaby, this disk has a very nice variety to it; it's a disk you can listen to once and immediately be able to recognize happily any of the songs when you hear them again - unlike the mainstream releases that so often drizzle into a drone, this group has very nice versatility while still remaining in a core of ambient/jazz feeling. Stripped down sound that is not overproduced, with well-timed layering of vocals and well-crafted instrumental work. Great timing, feeling, and something I would use for anything from a coffeeshop background to a tea date or a 20- or 30-something chat party. Well worth the investment to try out, we'll be keeping this CD a long time.
