Light Bearer Music

Eternity Says Hello
self-released; 2013

3.5 out of 5

A wide variety of styles and genres such as hip-hop, R&B, soul, electronic are apparent in the latest release from Light Bearer Music  entitled Eternity Says Hello. Light Bearer Music is composed of producers, writers, singers, a handful of musicians, and a number of other people who want to collaborate and make something unique. Light Bearer Music has been around for about three years and continues to encourage creativity and artistry not unlike similar collectives like the Polyphonic Spree or Broken Social Scene. Eternity Says Hello is the fifth installment in a series of New Year's Eve projects.

After the just under a minute long intro the album kicks off with my favorite track “To the Heavens” which has some gritty phasey drums, orchestrations swells and some sweet, catchy female vocals. The chorus is melodic and sung while the verse contains raps which has proven to be a popular award-winning formula for quite some time. Another good track is “Nostalgia” which is another hip-hop based tune that not unlike A Tribe Called Quest has some intelligent lyrics and smooth rhymes. This time around the drums are less aggressive and we have no female voices present on this track. Other tracks like “Worthy” and “Fall and Rise Again” are slower R&B based type song. The material here is varied
and showcases a collective of inspired artists working together.
