Brothers - Don't Stop Now - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Digitally re-mastered and expanded edition of this 1976 album including seven bonus tracks. The 'Brothers' appeared to be little more than a New York set of studio players, led by Bhen Lanzaroni - but they did an amazing job of replicating a Philly instrumental sound, with plenty of heavy bass at the bottom of the arrangements, and jazzy riffing on Wah Wah guitar, flute and keyboards over the top. Washes of strings gave the whole album a real 'hustle' feel - and the tracks blend into one another on each side. They were the kind of group that were easily overlooked if the tracks weren't so good! The Brothers studio project was designed to cash in on the disco craze. DON'T STOP NOW is packed with a smooth instrumental disco sound that's got a lot of nice jazzy touches, which never lapses into the clichés you'd expect. The 'Brothers' were hip enough to cover Antonio Carlos and Jocafi's classic Brazilian groover 'Voce Abousou', done with the coolest vocals on the chorus only - and they come up with some nice numbers on their own, like 'Make Love', 'Brothers Theme' and 'Don't Stop Now' and 'Under the Skin'.

Resolve acts in dialogue with the minimalist inspirations of the first Arnold Dreyblatt & The Orchestra of Excited Strings , 1982's Nodal Excitation - in effect, looking beneath the hood of several decades of progression to review and renew the revolutionary intent of their microntonal foundation credo. This new Orchestra - Oren Ambarchi, Konrad Sprenger and Joachim Schütz - combine effortlessly to explore new scalar dimensions.

2011 EP. Steve Reker formed People Get Ready in summer 2009 with Luke Fasano (Yeasayer). a chance encounter at Austin City Limits, the two sensed a common bond, and then set out to start a project combining contemporary dance and performance with a live band experience.
