Register Now!!Out now: Doug Wimbish's 'CinemaSonics'
It's out now, available as digital download or on cd: 'Cinemasonics', the follow-up to Doug Wimbish's first solo-album 'Trippy notes for Bass' (1999).
For CinemaSonics, Doug recruited many of his life-long musical mates, and tapped his deep reservoir of talent, influences, and cinematic memories to make his most personal record to date.
CinemaSonics is, as expected, filled with Doug's virtuosity, electronics, and signature ambient sound, but it also showcases his often over-looked melodic, lyrical, and compositional skills. From horn-rich James Bond orchestration, to 1970s Superfly funk, urban Beatstreet vibes, and darker Miami Vice moods, CinemaSonics is a comprehensive, and stylish musical document, effectively serving as a soundtrack for Doug's artistic life.
Personel:
Doug Wimbish (bass, vocals, ambience, Skip McDonald (guitars, keybs, vocals), Bernard Fowler (vocals ), Keith LeBlanc (drums ), Will Calhoun (drums), Milan Cimfe (drums, percussion), Pavel Dirda (piano), Pete Lockett (percussion), Flash (horns), Kevin Gibbs and Sas Bell (vocals ), Bernie Worrell (keyboards), Adrian Sherwood (creative ambience and psycho mix), Sister Carol (vocals), Shara Nelson (vocals)
