CD ReviewsThe Blue Velvet Lounge Wind And Wire - Bill Binkelman | 07/31/2003 (5 out of 5 stars) "Dry martini cool, 15-year old single malt scotch smooth, and original Rat Pack hip, Canadian Dino Pacifici's latest release, The Blue Velvet Lounge is all this - and more. Pacifici has always been one of the more versatile electronic keyboard players in the ambient/new age genres - and now he returns to the same landscape he previously explored on one of his older albums, Urban Oasis, with more than a few twists along the way, of course.
The Blue Velvet Lounge is a second cousin, sort of, to Richard Bone's Coxa. However, where Coxa was a sly electronica homage to 1950s jazz, The Blue Velvet Lounge is a straight-up fusion recording, incorporating elements of lounge, smooth jazz, electronica, funk, and other groove-inhabited genres. Pacifici plies his trade on a vast arsenal of keyboards as well as also offering some licks on ultra-tasty electric guitar. This album is a stone blast and is one of the most "fun" recordings I've heard in 2003. The Blue Velvet Lounge should become your new hang-out. You'll spend many an enjoyable hour there, swaying to the beats and snappin' you fingers, provided you don't have a vodka martini in one hand and a blonde in the other!" |
