Ella Blame is a duo consisting of singer/composer Ella Blame and composer/multi-instrumentalist Michael D. Temple. They write, compose, record and perform music never heard before of genres Psychedelic Pop, Psychedelic Dance, Symphonic Outer Space Music, and Ethereal/Ambient.
Before Ella Blame and Michael D. Temple have formed the Ella Blame duo, Ella has produced more than 50 songs of various genres together with several electronic musicians and multi-instrumentalists from around the world (U.S.A., Canada, Japan, India, and Germany). She is still collaborating with other musicians, especially Shinji Imai a.k.a. "mode complex" from Japan.
* This CD should have a warning label: "May induce a state of altered consciousness with distorted perceptions of space and time. Do not drive or operate machinery while listening to this music." Ella Blame's Ineffable Desire grabs you by the synapses and delivers an endless stream of audio stimuli that completely dominate your attention. This is music you don't simply listen to - you experience it... Ella Blame is innovative, perhaps ahead of their time. But the day will come when this music is the pop music of a new generation, and Ineffable Desire will likely be held up as the seminal album of the genre. -- Kenny Hart, www.Indie-Music.com
* ... Then, in the frenetic "Thought Control" and the experimental "Another Side," both with music by guest collaborator Shinji Imai, Blame shows off the baritone end of her huge range, along with her hisses and moans and piercing high notes. She unveils a fluttery soprano for the spooky, deceptively simple ballad "I Can't Sleep." In fact, it wouldn't be too much of an exaggeration to say that Blame's voice is to a normal person's voice as Robert Patrick's shape-shifting Terminator was to the stolidly anthropomorphic Schwartzenegger model ... - Jon Sobel, www.Blogcritics.org
* ... Chemistry is all in music collaboration. They have it here in spades. The CD is a perfect blend of unique music to unique vocals. The bar has been set by such artists as Bjork, Harland, and Karmcoda. It's been raised by the Ella Blame Duo. Oh and the cover art, by Ella Blame, is totally bugged out and perfectly illustrates the music. You have been warned. -- Mark Kirby, www.MusicDish.com
