CD Reviews

Quite a unique sound, not to mention good

Guillermo Folco | 03/10/2002

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Very intelligent music, something that may require a few listens in order to appreciate some of it. Perhaps a couple of the songs are a bit too "ambient" for me, but on the other hand, a couple are so beautiful, even melodically haunting, that they compensate for the weaker ones. If you like "world music", say Dead Can Dance (though Alpha is not similiar to them at all) you would probably appreciate this CD for its distinctiveness and artistry."

Thrilling

"The Impossible Thrill is more "instrument oriented" than ComeFromHeaven, which has very unique samples in it. I have not been able to listen to "Don't Touch" yet since I do not have the one with bonus track. Clear Sky has this really bizarre sample which can be described as "thrilling". Trying to gather info on Alpha on the web is like running after a ghost. It is a good buy."
