FEATURES FOR THE WEEK

Tuesday 04/27/04
A LIVING ROOM CONCERT WITH AIR
The French duo called Air is both retro and moderne, chilled pop and ambient lounge. They created a splash in 1998 with their album, MOON SAFARI (Astralwerks) featuring the oft heard instrumental "La Femme D'argent" and the Moog driven pop song, "Sexy Boy." This year they released their CD, TALKIE WALKIE (Astralwerks) as well as contributing a piece to the film Lost in Translation. Air comes into the Echoes living room to play music from their latest CD and a cue from their soundtrack for "The Virgin Suicides."

Wednesday 04/28/04
A LIVING ROOM CONCERT WITH WILLIAM EATON
William Eaton brings his exotic stringed instruments, like the Lyre-Harp guitar, to Echoes, playing his music live. On his latest album, SPARKS AND EMBERS (Canyon Records), Eaton deploys his instruments in an exotic world chamber fusion that draws its rhythms from the middle east and Africa, it's melodies from India and Appalachia and it's atmosphere right out of the desert southwest where the William Eaton Ensemble lives. With percussionist Will Clipman, flutist Claudia Tulip, and violinist Allen Ames, Eaton weaves global themes with Native accents live on Echoes.

Thursday 04/29/04
THE MINISTRY OF INSIDE THINGS: ELECTRONIC DECRYPTION
The Ministry of Inside Things is synthesist Chuck Van Zyl and guitarist Art Cohen. Van Zyl is a disciple of 70's space music and hosts the long-running space music radio show, Stars End at WXPN in Philadelphia. When he isn't spinning CDs of heroes like Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze and their more recent descendants, he creates his own electronic dreamscapes with Art Cohen. Their debut CD is EVERLASTING MOMENT (Synkronos). In Van Zyl's Upper Darby home, Van Zyl and Cohen talk about the inspiration, directions and secrets of The Ministry of Inside Things.
