Duncan Sheik - White Limousine Disc 1
- Grammy®-nominated Duncan Sheik once again has a winner on his hands. Sheik has scored for film and the stage; produced go-getting records for other artists and captured audiences around the world with his remarkable voice and song writing abilities. 'White Limousine' is Sheik's most understood work yet: a set of catchy, thoughtful compositions that are pro-love and anti-war, both awarding and rewarding. The one amazing thing about this CD packaging is that included in the 'White Limousine' package are two discs, labeled MINE and YOURS. MINE is Duncan's version of these songs; YOURS is a DVD-ROM enabling listeners to create their own versions. Using the software provided, the listener can isolate and remix 'White Limousine's many sonic layers.
This may be the first time a recording artist has released the entire contents of his or her album, instrument by instrument, giving listeners the ability to re-invent the songs as they see fit. Duncan Sheik delivers an album far deeper than most bands and musicians would dare musically or profitably. He bares his soul in almost all of the songs, accompanying them with beautifully multilayered musical arrangements. He appears to be moving further away from the commercial spotlight, and for Duncan that is a good thing. One can tell when an artist is producing from the heart and because of the love of the art, and Duncan Sheik is such that artist. This CD is beautifully arranged and the melody and harmony takes you away and sails you across a plain of talent and great ability.
