Crux
performed by Emmalee Crane (Emmalee Crane, 2010), 40 mins

describes it as "drone", that hardly does justice to the orchestral swell and

that has been described as "an absolute success...built upon passion and love
and emotion," and "as beautiful as it is inventive."

(as one reviewer described) frightening, Formantine is an emotional journey
through the heart and mind of an extraordinary artist.

Several distinct influences glide in and out of these meditative tunes, including classical, electronic, and hints of cool jazz. "Hypocritical" is the poppiest track, while "Siren"...

The quietly seductive Siren is Justin Bianco's ninth album, and once again his deeply low key songs are subtly, unexpectedly catchy. Several distinct influences glide in and out of these meditative tunes, including classical, electronic, and hints of cool jazz. "Hypocritical" is the poppiest track, while "Siren" is a deep under-the-radar dance anthem. Bianco says this an album about "strength, power, and darkness...." We say it's beautifully downcast electropop for a rainy day.
