A Study In Her
Dialogic
Honest In Secret CD
A Study in Her is more of a study in the experimentation of balancing the chilly feel of arctic electronic sounds along with the organic warmth of untainted vocals and non-computerized instrumentations, and for the most part, it works very well.
At times I wish there was less electronic beats, loops, and samplings, and more of Tamara Black's (Jenhitt) breathy, wispy vocals, but with each spin of Dialogic, the minimalist, low key style A Study In Her produces sounds better and better. Costas Nakassis' (Jenhitt, The Axis Set, Charlie Brown Gets a Valentine) soft spoken vocals, hushed and delicate, are a really nice element that matches well with Tamara's.
A beguiling mixture of subdued electronics, skittish snare taps, remote guitar picks, and sprinkled piano parts fill Dialogic (sometimes even mimicking the playfulness of Joan of Arc). Investigational music that's not indulgent, but does require patience, A Study In Her's wintry breathe cools and calms, especially on "Two-F," "Tropes On Television," and "Wrung Rough."
Dialogic is the ideal album for those restless, sleepless winter nights that extends well into the early morning.
