Breathtaking Sonic Vibe

"This album and band are utterly sublime. Their mastery of electronica shimmers in the lush, grooving soundscapes laid down by Tony Miracle and Kip Kubin, but the sonic interweaving and seductive, mesmerizing, so soulful crooning of Annette Strean is what puts Venus Hum over the top. This sound transcends categories, it is just plain hypnotic, intelligent music. Having just seen them live in Nashville, at 12th & Porter, with a beautiful, creative electronic visual backdrop, I am now truly under the spell."
Absolutely Amazing

"This is just an amazing cd. I bought it after seeing Venus Hum for the first time as one of the openers for the Blue Man Group. Annette's voice was so amazingly powerful that it almost brought me to tears. My only criticism of the cd is that her voice seems to be toned down. She is one of the rare performers who actually sounds better live. Please do yourself a favor and purchase this cd."
