The independent hip-hop renaissance of the late 1990s is coming to a close in places like New York, where the sound of the independent scene and that of the mainstream are converging rapidly. Out in LA, though, independence has always been more of an aesthetic choice, not a financial one. In the grand tradition of Freestyle Fellowship and the Good Life Café comes renegade producer OD and his Beneath the Surface collection. The beats are pure abstract LA beat science, spacey and frenetic at once. The gems, though, are to be found in the lyrics--members of the aforementioned Fellowship, Of Mexican Descent, Dilated Peoples, and Global Phlowtations lace the album with otherworldly poetry; for a twist, peep "Farmers Market of the Beast," an aural bacchanal that takes a page from Orwell's Animal Farm and explores the thoughts behind a panoply of clucks, oinks, and nyaaas. --Jon Caramanica

Album Description

All-out-funniest comedian I've ever heard.......2000-03-11

This guy is a scream. Buy this CD, and watch for his next! (I think the next will be based on his current "Right Now, Right Now" tour, which is when I saw him perform.) I can't say enough good things about him, although I have to admit I'm especially predisposed to identify with his observations on race relations, having straddled the Latino/Anglo cultural divide all my life. At any rate, George is going to take comedy in this country to a whole other level, and he's well on his way. And if you get a chance to see him live, DO IT! Loads of wit, dead-on characterizations, antic anecdotes and much, much more...

The best Chicano Comedy Album since Cheech and Chong's day.......2000-03-11

You will laugh for days! I've had this CD for quite some time and I still laugh everytime I listen to it. GL is by far the funniest Chicano comedian on the scene today. This CD is a must.

This guy is great!.......2000-02-23

My Wife and I saw George Lopez in Brea Ca. This guy is very funny. We will make it a point to see him again when he comes back. He needs another CD out.

Best Mexican comedian. Paul Rodriguez look out!.......1999-03-26

I saw George Lopez live in Pasadena, CA and every show was a sell out. Everyone in the club was rolling on the ground with laughter. When I say everyone I mean EVERYONE even if they weren't Mexican. George is much funnier than Paul Rodriguez will ever hope to be.

Great & Very Funny Hispanic Comedy!.......1999-01-28

I laughed so hard I cried. Out of so many comedians out there, this one I decided to see personally because I loved the CD so much.

For a true Alien Nation Fan!.......2001-07-11

You have to really love Alien Nation to enjoy this one. Amazon has a few songs you can listen to, to see if you enjoy first. I always loved the soundtracks in the series (and miss it badly) so I bought this CD. I enjoy it, most of the music has a soothing quality and will bring back good memories of a great series cancelled too soon.

Science fiction scoring at its best.......2001-01-15

"Alien Nation" was the science fiction television series (based on a motion picture of the same name) which told the story of an extraterrestrial race being assimilated into the United States in contemporary times. This CD collects excerpts from some of the best music written for the series. The innovative compositions by Steve Dorff, Larry Herbstritt, and David Kurtz are often complemented by the "alien" lyrics of Kenneth Johnson.

This talented team created music that not only captured the rich emotional texture of the series, but that also gave us a taste of the alien "Tenctonese" culture depicted each week. Beginning with the thrilling main title--a kinetic blend of percussion and weird alien vocals--this disc is alternatingly frenzied, gentle, exciting, elegant, jarring, playful, and inspirational.

It is impossible, in the space of a short review, to mention all of the most outstanding of this disc's 31 varied tracks. But the best of the bunch include the title track; "Howdy, Pod" (#8), which contains beautiful chanting; "George Entertains" (#14), which has a whimsical, Elizabethan feel; "The Ceremony" (#15), with more exceptional chanting; "Slag Pop" (#20), which makes use of some really weird vocal effects; and "Cathy's Story" (#25), a short piece with a real epic sweep and emotional pull.

"Alien Nation," the series, had a second life in a series of excellent TV movies. And with this superb CD, fans can continue to re-live the saga of the "Newcomers." But even if you're not a fan of the series, you may still love this disc. This is an outstanding example of an effective blend of musical artistry and science fiction.

Excellent CD for an Alien Nation Fan.......1999-07-13

This is a great CD. It collects the best of the series' scores, especially Cathy's Story, The Main Title, and the Generation to Generation tracks. It is a great collection and is very good for afan to have. Definitely buy!

linda krajewski is smoking rock.......2004-02-07

To malign this CD and to say the coldcut track is the only good thing about it shows a complete lack of musical taste.

Personally, I skip the first two cuts on the CD. While I love Jello Biafra, I just want to get to the meat of it- which is "IMOKRUOK". This is to this day one of my favorite techno cuts ever. If you ever owned a Speak and Spell you will know what I am talking about.

The whole CD is immaculately mixed. Beyond anyone else. The use of "Vogue" between "IMOKRUOK" and "Space Funk" is pure genius.

Anyone that would diss this CD just doesn't know what they are talking about.

Theatrical, Indeed.......2002-03-09

I swear every time I listen to this CD, when it's over I feel like I just watched a movie. I think this is the effect Keoki was going for with his 'themed' mixes (Disco Deathrace 2000, Transatlantic Move?) Well, it works. Oh yeah, I did alot of bouncing to the beats and rapping along with Junkie XL along the way too...

The bedtime patrol will check up on you!.......2001-03-20

I can say nothing less about Keoki other than he's fantastic. I still have not had the honor to see him perform live, but too all the friends and fans I've spoken to about it, I have heard nothing but complete bliss. There's something to be said when you rate one of his CDs 5 stars and hear that watching him perform is much better. OK, enough of the drama, let's get to this CD...

For one, I would recommend purchasing this CD on the spot simply for the first track alone! It helps set the stage for a different listening experience in the art of techno unlike that of others, and the lyrics are just hilarious! It's the type of song a teen can play loudly in hopes that his parents can understand the message, in a comical sense that is. The CD then begins to take a deeper, darker tone that is eloquently mixed together for a trippy and fun ride. Keoki definitely proves his talents with this one, for when I first started listening to techno, he was one of the first names mentioned by many to me. It's unique the way he brings together the tracks on this CD, as they don't flow like a trance CD, but more like a build-up-to-something-else kinda feel. Trust me, if you like Keoki, I'm sure you'll enjoy this CD.

Another Great One.......2000-11-10

He does it all people Techno'trance'breakbeat he is a master of his craft and if you don"t have this one you need it I recently saw him live and he played a wicked set.Another all star release from the king'get it now!!

make every home a prison today.......2000-07-31

this cd actually got me into techno 2 years ago and i can still see why,all the tracks are smooth ranging from breakbeat to house to trance this is just phat and all the songs flow into each other really well.if you arent really into techno but like some then cop this bad boy-youll like it.and if you ever get a chance to hear him live you MUST go because he's incredible and doesnt really sound like any of his cd's.get it now-later

Product Description

Syrian presents the next chapter in their onslaught of ultra-danceable, irresistibly edgy, futuristic themed albums! "Alien Nation" is purhaps the band's most diverse effort so far, blending in some crunchy guitar sounds and throbbing industrial beats along with their established trance-influenced club sounds and synthpop melodies. The songs explore visions of the future, both hopeful and fearful. The album includes an unforgettable club anthem featuring a duet with Marian Gold, the dynamic vocalist of Alphaville.

More music for the masses.......2007-04-24

Before buying this, I skipped through the tracks at a listening station in the store, and thought "this sounds pretty cool!". But once I sat down and really listened, it's not as cool as I thought.

This album is a blend of futurepop/ebm and Joe Satriani. I swear, Joe Satriani has been polymorphed into this music. The lyrics about sun, moon and stars in almost every song gets old too.

I'll give it a 3 for Supernova, and tricking me into buying the damn thing.

Close to perfect!!.......2007-03-14

Futurepop/Trance and now Syrian adds in elements of Industrial crunch guitar on a few songs. This is about as good as it gets for me!! I only have one problem with this CD. It was too short. I want more songs!!
