Nezzwerk
...more unyielding and turbulent dark ambient/ power noise tactics.
Album Description
Dark, ominous, rhythmic, noise, idm, tribal, ambient.are one of many monikers to describe the work of Savak. Savak is the solo project of Scott Beebe of Holocaust Theory. Being named after the Shah of Iran's secret police in the 70's, Savak is a pure conceptual project focusing on the workings of this group and international political terrorism in general. Since the early 80's, Beebe has been fascinated with this topic and now has used the Savak project to express his feelings and emotions towards the two subjects. Musically, Savak is a hybrid of many electronic genresblending dark ambient, drum and bass, idm, rhythmic industrial, and more Savak cannot be categorized into one style. Savak is starting to gain more attention in the press and listeners alike as many are curious about the name and now after completing a US tour with Ant Zen acts, Imminent, Synapscape, and Converter more interest is being stirred up about the live set of Savak. Now with that said and done..a quote from the cd "Savak does not support terrorism tactics in any form nor does it support counter-terrorism in any form. Let the politicians deal with that." Band Members: Scott Beebe

Customer Reviews:
Nice Collection.......2007-03-05
I have many collections of Purcell's Music. This collection stands up to them at half the price. Solid buy.
PERFECT!.......2006-10-26
There is only a word with which I can describe this set of discs: perfect!
The only flaw there is, is not related to the singing or playing: no text enclosed.
Great singing and excellent value for money.......2004-09-19
This is probably one of the best anthologies of Purcell songs around, and not just because it's two-for-one pricing means it contains twice as much music (CD1:74'24" & CD2: 77'41")! Nancy Argenta has an irrepressible sense of style and crystal clear diction. But unlike Emma Kirby, whose vocal purity can become tiresome, these renditions radiate warmth. She is also, I have found, more consistently involving than any one of the singers in Hyperion's three disc survey of Complete Secular Songs (recently reissued as a single set). One marvels at how she judiciously balances restraint and emotional forthrightness. The accompaniments (archlute, viola da gamba, harpsichord, and organ) are well judged and blend with the voice, all helped by an excellently defined recording acoustic. This is an absolute winner at any price!
More than two hours of beautiful 17th century 'ayres'.......2001-08-02
Two CDs, totaling more than 150 minutes of sparsely-arranged (never more than 3-5 instruments at a time), sweetly-sung, 350 year old 'ayres' (a typically English form of secular music). Nancy Argenta's soprano voice is lovely, silvery indeed as her name implies. The instruments are a discreet but friendly accompaniment to her solo voice. Perhaps the instruments are a little too discreet -- there are times when I wish they were a touch more prominent. But that is a very, very minor complaint. A beautiful collection, and quite well worth the money.

Customer Reviews:
The picture.......2006-12-11
I haven't purchased the CD but the picture of the inside of a church on the cover is not of a British church, like one would assume since it says its a recording of British choirs. This picture is of Notre Dame Basilica in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Just thought i'd let you know. I'll be honest; I'm one to judge things by it's cover and if the company took such care to choose a 'British' church for their British choir CD, I'm willing to bet the music is equally well selected... I'm being sarcastic. But I gave the product 5 stars because I didn't want to hurt its ratings just because i'm cynical. But check out the church if you're ever in Montreal, it's truly beautiful... here I'm not being sarcastic.
