Editorial Reviews
Creative Loafing, Atlanta June 26, 1999
"Those who recall the late Ronnie Lane's efforts on Pete Townshend's Who Came First album won't be so surprised by the idea of transcendental hillbilly music. . .Ekendra Dasa's "Krishnaphonic" sounds are highly enjoyable, and songs like "Maggot Poo Poo" prove his spirituality is at least as much new wave as New Age." -

Product Description
God Project (Ekendra Dasa and the Planet Cow Orchestra's debut CD on Krishnaphonic Records) is the story of one man's struggle for meaning and transcendence, set to a lively Country & Rockabilly score. Songs like "Maggot Poo Poo," and "Dogmind" come down heavy and hilariously on blindly materialistic living, while promoting the practical wisdom of Bhagavad-gita and a more spiritualized idea of "rocking the house down."

2 out of 5 stars Just as I thought........2007-01-25

The same recycled junk...over and over and over...and that damn "tu romeeeo" man! its so annoying the boys are bad they have talent but either you do bachata or do pop...To put it gently...Mediocre...Ill wait for their greatest hit before i buy another one of their albums.Stick with spanish y llegaran mucho mas lejos.

5 out of 5 stars Great CD.......2006-11-08

I recently acquired this CD, because well, that one girl I love recommended it. I seriously have to say, God's Project has some great songs. I wasn't really into this genre (Bachata) but wow, it has seriously changed my preferences.

Perfect CD.

Recientemente adquiri este CD, porque, simplemente porque la muchacha que amo lo recomendo. Sinceramente tengo que decir, God's Project tiene muy buenas cansiones. No estaba muy interesado en el genero de Bachata, pero este CD cambio mis preferencias.

Perfecto el CD.

5 out of 5 stars Aventura.....the best album to date............2006-10-31

It took me a minute to buy this album, and now I wonder why I hesitated at all. This is great, and, in my opinion, far better than "We Broke the Rules" (and I thought that was my favorite album of theirs). For starters, the arrangements are so tight on this album. The guys sound great. Romeo, the lead singer, is at his romantic best. What makes Aventura stand apart from other bachateros is that they aren't just straight bachata. They also throw in other musical elements, like rock, r&b, reggaeton, hip hop and flamenco. There is ample evidence of this in tracks like "Angelito" (Angel), with the gorgeous coro work by their female back up vocalist (definitely channeling romantic r&b), "Un Beso" (the guys build up to a wonderful flamenco-inspired finish and the guitar here is amazing!!), and "Ella Y Yo" (a reggaeton song featuring Don Omar). This album is so enjoyable. I happen to speak Spanish, and listening to music is the best way for me to keep it up, but you do not have to speak the language to enjoy this beautiful music. These guys have talent that beyond their years (they are all in their mid-twenties now). This is their fourth and strongest album, to date. Beautiful, romantic and totally contemporary. I am sure this album has already had plenty of airplay on the Latin radio stations on the East Coast (I am a West Coast, Seattle-based gal, so I wouldn't know this for a fact).

5 out of 5 stars "Y solo con un beso,,,,,,,,,,me vuelvo a enamorar!!!!!".......2006-06-21

Romeo's sultry voice has captivated me. He makes me want to fall in love all over again, his love songs make me fall in love with love. Aventura have placed "bachata" in the major leagues. My favorite is "Ella y Yo", featuring my main man "Don, Don, Don Omar", great chemisty, se la comieron!! Most lyrics on this CD have a message of social conscience ......of conflicts that many people actually face. Is no wonder Aventura have entitled this CD, "God's Project"!

5 out of 5 stars No God Like Jehovah- Judy Jacobs Live.......2007-07-07

This cd albumn is simply awesome! It is so full of joy, I can praise God and be spiritually uplifted anytime and anywhere! I find myself remembering snippets of psalms and phrases from the various songs and humming all day long. I had never heard of Judy Jacobs, but I love her voice and her testimonies. Every song has been a blessing to me.

I bought the albumn to hear Agnus Dei....Worthy is the lamb....she sings this sooooooo well! And she also has so many others...Days of Elijiah...God Can Work a Miracle For You.... My God Is....Jesus......every time I start the cd to hear one song, I end up listening and singing to the entire albumn! I give this albumn ten stars!!!!

4 out of 5 stars Great Singer - Not So Great Presentation.......2006-07-11

I really really like Judy Jacobs and bought her album "Almighty Reigns" at the same time I got this one. Unfortunately, this one isn't as good, in my opinion. For one thing, being a "live" album there is a lot of background noise and you can't hear the main singer as well.
Also I don't care for a few of the songs. My favorite is "Days of Elijah" which was not clear enough to me. I'm not saying the album isn't good but I play and enjoy "Almighty Reigns" much more.

5 out of 5 stars TO GOD BE THE GLORY!!.......2006-05-14

I was reading Judy Jacob's book 'Take It By Force' and was being so blessed by it that I decided to buy this CD. Each and every song either had me dancing, praising or in spirit-filled worship to our Lord. What an anointed woman of God!! Everytime I hear 'Blessing and Honor' my knees get weak and tears start to flow, I've heard 'Days of Elijah' before, but never like this. I've had it for three days and it's been playing for the better part of each one of them. I'm reading about 'violent faith' and listening to awesome praise and worship music, I'm truly blessed and highly favored by the Lord!! I'm getting one for my 'Praise Partner'(s) so they can help me praise the Lord. Wow, I just can't stop raving about this experience!!

5 out of 5 stars Great CD.......2006-02-01

Judy Jacobs was been a true inspiration to me. I listen to this GOD bless CD every morning beofre I go to work. I feel refresh and ready to go to work and face the days work. Almost everyday I get emotionally and begin to cry and thank GOD. I realize that I have so much to be thankful. I feel strong and thankful throughout the whole day.

5 out of 5 stars Definitely worth it!.......2005-08-11

This CD as well as Judy's other CD's are great. She sings with great conviction because she knows who her God is. Don't hesitate to purchase this or Above and Beyond, or Statement of Faith.

This is truly Judy Jacobs best CD ever! Juanita Bynum sings with her on "Because of Who You are" and she is great! I recommend this CD to anyone who likes Judy Jacobs or just wants to play this while they are doing their devotionals

5 out of 5 stars The Best!.......2006-01-17

This is the best CD I've ever owned. The songs are uplifting and her voice is beautiful. A wonderful CD to worship to.

5 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Album by Judy Jacobs.......2005-09-12

I must say, first and foremost, Judy Jacobs is an excellent singer. If you haven't heard her sing, please do. Here voice is amazing.The Lord has truly blessed her with a magnificent voice and she is using it to glorify him. Amen. Now about the cd, its format is excellent. Most of the songs were recorded live, so as you listen to it, you feel as if you're right there. Hearing the crowd worshipping and clapping in the background is awesome. This CD will truly lead you into the presence of God. Ever since the day I bought it, I listen to it every single day. It's truly amazing. I highly recommend Above and Beyond

    Album Description

    Clarion is proud to showcase another great American choir, The Choral Project, in a program featuring the music of Eric Whitacre. Included are the ever-popular "Cloudburst" and the "Five Hebrew Love Songs" performed with String Quartet. Founded in 1996 by Artistic Director Daniel Hughes, The Choral Project has performed throughout Northern California in concert performances, interfaith services, and choral festivals, including a performance at the National Cathedral in Washington DC, as part of the California State Day Celebration Service. In June of 2001, The Choral Project received rave reviews and standing ovations at concert performances during their first international tour to Mexico and Costa Rica, which included highly acclaimed performances on Mexican National Radio, and a joint concert with the Café Chorale in Costa Rica. They have performed world premieres of compositions by numerous composers including Eric Whitacre.

    2 out of 5 stars Soloists Poor, Vibrato Out Of Control, Spend $ Elsewhere.......2006-04-25

    Truly dissapointed with this one.

    Of course, BYU's is better than this; the sopranos sound like they have an average age of 60.

    The soprano section lives in some wierd dichotomy. During the "Agnus Dei" you get a particularly bad B-52 like vibrato, then during the 7/8 section of "5 Hebrew Songs" they sound like a mediocre State School College Choir with a breathy unsupported sound. Both instances weren't out of tune. They just lacked a firm foundation.

    When the soloists in "Tonight Eternity Alone" come in with shocking vibrato and lack of professional musicality, I actually skipped ahead.

    If you are looking for a great cd other than BYU's. Try the CD entitled "Cloudburst", sung by Polyphony, conducted by Stephen Layton on Hyperion Records. It will blow you away. Save your money on this one, unless you would like to use this CD to compare the differences between it and either BYU or Polyphony.

    Paying a premium fee for this CD, I expected something a bit better than an average grade semi-professional choir.

    Daniel, find some new sopranos if you want to continue to sell CD's for $17 a pop.

    5 out of 5 stars A fabulous CD!.......2006-03-24

    I don't know what these people are talking about. I've heard the BYU cd and it leaves me cold. The tone is so pure and thin that it has no life to it. The Choral Project breathes life into these pieces by Eric Whitacre. Another winner is Frank Ticheli's "There Will Be Rest". Simply stunning. A fabulous CD!

    3 out of 5 stars Decent, but too much vibrato.......2006-02-03

    I am a huge Eric Whitacre fan, so I am always excited about his recordings. So far the best recording of his Choral works is the BYU singers, which is far superior to this recording. My biggest complaint is that nearly every piece from Water and Light is filled with vibrato. I have read some internet postings by Mr. Whitacre himself and he has said that his pieces are best sung without vibrato because the harmonies are designed to fit tightly together. All the vibrato makes the pieces not sound completely in tune (I'm am not saying that these performers are not capable of singing in tune, just that the vibrato makes the harmonies not quite as strong)

    3 out of 5 stars Not bad...BYU is markedly superior........2006-01-29

    As the previous reviewer, I'm a huge Eric Whitacre fan. If you're looking for a recording of his Five Hebrew Love Songs (which are stunningly beautiful), may I recommend "Beautiful River" by BYU Concert Choir (on Tantara Records). In comparing the two side by side...well there is no comparison.

    3 out of 5 stars Not BYU, but worth adding to your collection.......2006-01-17

    Eric Whitacre has taken the contemporary choral music world by storm. Since the release of his collected a cappella works CD (recorded by BYU Singers/Ron Staheli), choral music fans cannot get enough of his music.

    Being such a fan, I bought this CD on a whim. I was excited for the opportunity to hear recordings of several pieces not included on the BYU recording (Little Birds, She Weeps Over Rahoon, Five Hebrew Love Songs).

    Whitacre's music is as aurally stunning as it is difficult to sing, and the Choral Project does an adequate job of re-interpreting these pieces. If you've gotten use to the excellent quality of the BYU recording, you may be disappointed by this album--the balance and blend of this choir leaves something to be desired at times (not to mention the overly-offensive vibrato from several of the sopranos).

    Perhaps the best track on the album is the Ticheli (mostly known for his band/wind ensemble compositions) "There Will Be Rest". If you aren't familiar with this piece, it's worth buying the album just to hear this one...

    All-in-all, it's worth buying this album as long as you don't set your expectations too high.

    Album Description

    This is an album encapsulated within are collisions of epic forces, chaotic sexuality, religious underpinnings, enlightened fragments of joy. During a brief, 3 week vacation from the recording of the soon to be released 3rd Freezepop album, Kasson Crooker (aka The duke from the synthpop trio Freezepop, also ex-Splashdown) wanted to focus on a collection of songs inspired by some of his favorite movie soundtracks. Moved by the epic nature of Vangelis (Bladerunner, Chariots of Fire) and retro/future aesthetic of Wendy Carlos (Clockwork Orange, Tron), Symbion Project created a 'baroque minimalist electro' album that could live seamlessly in 1762, 1962 or 2162. Concerned with the non-dynamic, robotic stagnancy of current electronic music, along with the overwhelming nature of being surrounded by a studio full of synthesizers and blinking audio gear, this album was crafted using only a single 32vco analog synthesizer. Very little was sequenced (except for the blazingly fast runs that Bach himself couldn't even do) and almost all the parts were played in by hand. Constant attention was given to exploiting and exaggerating the emotional tension of the songs through use of dynamics, from the initial songwriting to the final mastering (analog of course).

        I bought this CD for one song, "let me be your armor". I love that song! The rest of the CD is ok, it was fun to hear remixes of "naked" and "disappoint", but the originals are much better. If you are new to Assemblage 23 I recommend that you buy the Storm album instead.

        4 out of 5 stars A Remix/B-Side Release Album.......2005-07-16

        Tom Shear returns with this much anticipated album that is full of remixes and B-Side previously unreleased tracks. This is a 13 track CD with 9 of the tracks actual remixes of songs from the 'Contempt' and 'Failure' albums. Having at the moment listed to the 'Contempt' album and not 'Failure' I cannot comment on many of the remixes in full. I am at the moment purchasing the rest of Tom Shear's outstanding work.
        However the highlight of this album was actually the 3 B-side songs that were not released previously. 'Let Me Be Your Armour', 'Breath Of Ghosts' and 'Away' sound better than the remixed songs. How they were never including in any other Assemblage 23 album is way beyond me. These songs are a mixture of dark industrial sounds mixed with new wave ambient trance beats. This should make any fan of Tom Shear and his work on Assemblage 23 get this album and its a valuable addon to your existing music library.

        4 out of 5 stars Good but not perfect.......2003-07-03

        I can't really say that I am all too familiar with Assemblage 23's music like I am with VNV Nation and Apoptygma Berzerk. I only know the song "Time Killer" and A23's most recent album "Defiance". I bought "Addendum" almost a week ago when I found a used copy of it in the used bins. I really wanted to familiarize myself with other A23's music. I didn't find out until later that "Addendum" was a remix album when I read the back of the cd case. Normally I am not wild about remix albums. I find them terribly repetitive like Delerium's "Odyssey" cd. Since I was not really familiar with most A23's music, I bought "Addendum" right on the spot. For the most part, I enjoyed "Addendum" especially the first four tracks. I thought Tom Shear really did a splendid job of fusing industrial beats with melancholic lyrics and sweet melodies. What I wasn't too fond of was the last three or four tracks. I found those songs repetitive and made me reach for my bottle of Excedrin. After listening to "Addendum", the music made me more curious to hear the orginal versions, especial "Awake" and "Naked", two of my personal favorite songs on the cd.

        5 out of 5 stars Three Easily-Missed Examples of Importation Bliss.......2003-01-23

        While I'm not a fan of remix albums, I do find myself gravitating toward anything that Tom Shear's Assemblage 23 moniker decides to throw toward the thresholds of consumerism. Accordingly, I decided that this album, mostly comprised of remixes, needed to join me because it had some different sounds and because of the three gems concealed within its pricey imported confines. Normally my consumption-based ambitions don't congregate in such needy packs like this, but Assemblage 23's last three releases (Contempt and Failure before this and then Defiance afterward) dictate that I do so and, happily enough, I'll have to say that the songs merited the purchase I made.

        Taking steps to traverse plateaus outside the momentous boundaries of Failure, these three new additions all have calling cards of their own, each keeping a temponic resonance that helps separate each one. Breath of Ghosts is heavily electronic and driven, keeping within it the normal namesake of Tom Shears in the form of lyrical charges and their perspective ability to flow. Let me Be Your Armor is a change of pace and is a bit slower than its former, managing a message of protection against the elements of cruelty life harbors within it while holding out the mantle of love in ways that are seductive in their normal-worldly appeal. Away is the slowest of the three, providing perhaps the best of the three in terms of lyrical content, message, and the depths of hidden seething emotions, speaking about the ever-growing blights some people are in life and their need to sometimes flee the deeds we've done in them.

        If you've never looked into Assemblage 23 before, I wouldn't suggest this album for you because it only has three new pieces to add to the equation and because its a remix album. Instead, you might want to look into Failure of Defiance first, attaching yourself to the foundations of the message before picking up these proverbial odds and ends. If you are a fan, though, and are looking for more, the three entries and newer tastes applied to older sensations are something I would recommend trying out.
