Mira
Mira
Projekt
POB 166155, Chicago, IL 60616
Shoe-gazer,
trance-pop masters Mira boast the alluring siren Regina Sosinski.
Her aural beauty kept the group at the top of mp3.com's "Shoegazer"
category for most of 1999. This ethereal chanteuse draws the listener
in, each note becomes an intimate message from this velvet-voice
vocalist. Layered guitar work adds richness to the mix. Seductive
vocals and composition make this debut excellent hypno-pop. (4) |

Arcana
Isabel
Cold Meat Industry
Arcana is part of the more reflective, almost spiritual,
darkwave movement. This is the easy listening side of industrial,
contemporary Gothic. The genre's motto could be "All of the gloom
and none of the boom." Just in time for Easter, Arcana released
their own dark psalm, "Hymn of Absolute Deceit." This is on the
three-song CD EP "Isabel". Arcana is chief among modern interpreters
of medieval chants and liturgical music. The movement's Joan of
Arc is Arcana vocalist Ida Bengtsson here sounding absolutely angelic.
