Multi-instrumentalist, Jonathan
Segel (Camper van Beethoven, Sista Maj, Øresund Space Collective and many
others projects) is back with a double CD of songs and jams. Besides the female vocals (Kelly, Sanna),
drums (Mattias, Chris and Andreas), and
Trombone (Stian), Jonathan plays
everything else. The first CD is mostly
3min tracks with some really cool and fun lyrics and remind me of the shorter
tracks on Hieronymous Firebrain and the Dent CDs he released years back, while
the longer tracks (my faves), Sleep for a hundred years, Phenomenon and On and
Like Mercury, have a lot more going on and some amazing music. The 2nd CD is again a mix of
2-5mins vocal oriented tracks but two instrumentals (The Dying Stars- great..)
and The luxury of Living. Overall, this is a very electic and excellent set of
music. A great starter if you have never heard his work and if you are a fan
you will like it as well. Playing with
people like Mattias (Drums) and Micke (Kungens Man) has been a great thing for
Jonathan. Also check out Sista Maj (http://sistamaj.bandcamp.com)
. Enjoy..
This is a site where I post reviews of CDs, DVDs, LPs, and concerts. I have been writing music reviews on and off since 1984. I ran a heavy metal fanzine from 1984-1988 called Metal Madness and have been a staff writer for Aural Innovations for many years. I have also contributed to Chrohinga Well (RIP), Bad Acid (RIP), Lowcut (RIP), Roadburn and a number of other zines as well. I recently moved to Portugal so please request the new address and do not send any music to Denmark anymore. Tak..
