David Berkeley
'David Berkeley sings in a lustrous, melancholy voice with shades of Tim Buckley and Nick Drake. As his melodies ascend to become benedictions and consolations, the music shimmers and peals.'
? Jon Pareles, The New York Times
'Singer-songwriter David Berkeley's first album, 2002's The Confluence, was an attention-grabbing debut.' ? Rolling Stone
Silent League
'Highly recommended ? Brian Wilson's legacy shimmers through the songs of the Silent League, which uses a few musicians to create grandly expansive orchestral pop.' ? Jon Pareles, The New York Times
Loaded Dreams
'Emotionally charged Dartmouth-via-Brooklyn bliss pop with guitar buzz and siren vocals.... Some compare them to Throwing Muses or Mazzy Star; others say Concrete Blonde or the Motels. The truth's in between.' ? Village Voice
Melomane
'Fans of pop served with a heavy skewering of experimental quirk should line up for this one. Melomane, a six-piece 'chamber-pop' band featuring orchestral instrumentation, infuse their stylized music with a heart and substance too often lacking in the genre.' ? Chuck Eddy, Village Voice
