Mad Planet sounds like love-lorn aliens high on MDMA crashing spaceships into the Pacific Ocean or "Neo-Cosmic Rhythm Electronica" as one of their fans put it. Their sophomore album Ghost Notes is a rhythmic and spirited exploration of love and commitment. -- -- What started as colorful musings in vocalist/bassist Cooper Gillespie's notebook and song sketches on guitarist Tony Crouse and drummer Greg Gordon's Macbooks was crafted into an album with producer Ethan Allen. Allen and Mad Planet worked tirelessly on the album over the course of four months unveiling layers of dark, twinkling synths, delicious grooves, magnificent washes of drums, gigantic bass lines and sexy guitars which Cooper's sultry vocals float effortlessly above. -- -- Ghost Notes explores the many facets of desire from ecstatic eroticism (Inside Outburst) to questioning monogamy (Two of Us), from post-break-up longing (Pieces of You) to the album's final track Slowly I Turn, a haunting acoustic guitar-led track where Gillespie ruminates about love after death.
The result is a beautifully constructed album with music that touches the highs and lows of human emotion. -- -- (Source: Artist Soundcloud) - -- -- -- -- UPC 884501743679 -- -- -- -- The Amazon ASIN for the mp3 version of this CD is B008B3KEO0 -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Another listing by Zip
