Album Notes

Remember the joy of finding one of those bands that were a "best kept secret" just before they exploded? Here you go again...

Perhaps you have heard about Ultrastar* from a friend.
* Or heard them on MTV [Making the Video]
* Or Film [The Only Way Out]
* Or Radio [WDXU, 88.7, Duke University, RaversEdge, Cleveland, 88.1, University of Rhode Island, WUNM, University of New Mexico, Brazil, Etc]
* Or remixes of their work [Drum+Cello, Living in the Light, Circles and Squares]
* Or on compilation CDs alongside Chemical Brothers, Kraftwerk, Dave Gahan, Etc.

"Ultrastar* is one of those bands that makes you feel great inside again about the state of modern music today."

Comparisions range the gamut: Massive Attack, Everything but the Girl, Bjork, Alpha, Lamb, Radiohead...None of them really sum up the Ultrastar* Sound.


It is said best in this quote:
"One of those rare bands that inspires others to pick up the guitar [or sampler ] and start a band."

The Players:

Producer / Composer Chad Palmer plays quietly sophisticated guitar, dirty driving basslines and creates some refreshingly inspired beats amid a rich texture of brilliant strings and ambient soundscapes.

Dj Dig explores the depths with his sampler to take you down along surprising twists and turns. He also keeps the vinyl flying using turntablism as his main weapon of choice while he sings in one of those rare pure voices that make you swear that he crafted the words just for you.

New York Actress Elizabeth Sackett adds a dash of glamour and a softer feminine side to Ultrastar* singing songs about life, love and the ones that got away.

Beautiful...Brilliant!

This is what electronic music should be. Finally a band has found a way to merge electronic and acoustic instruments in a thought provoking, satisfying way. The packaging is very hip stuff indeed. Buy it. Listen to it. And hope there is more. I do.

I admit it, I listen to this CD and dance around my house cleaning. There I said it. It is both pretty and funky, hard to describe but I love it.

This CD leaves you hanging - You want it to go on and on forever. I hear there is a new one coming out with remixes on it so that should be cool. Other than being too damned short I can't say a bad thing about this release. Sound is good, Songs are good, Packaging is an art students dream.
