Editorial Reviews

Album Description
On their album "See the Sound", the New York quintet brings an atmospheric mix of hiphop, triphop, drum & bass, lounge and jazz. The opening song, "Purest One" effortlessly combines D&B with a drummed hiphop beat and violins. And it is just these surprising combinations which recur. "Danger" catapults you with its warm intro and sax solo from 2-step to regular" pop music, while the instrumental "All I Need" maintains the tension thanks to its strange samples and depth. "See the Sound" is atmospheric and gripping right across the boards, but really comes into its own in the beautifully babbling 'Portrait', a fragile pearl which displays Lissette Alea's flexible vocal chords to their fullest.

Customer Reviews

This was a risk purchase, and definitely worth it.5
Ever buy something because the cover art was appealing or you liked the snazzy name?
I think at some point, everyone makes a risk purchase and most of the time the results are unpleasant.

I purchased this CD after hearing "Danger" as soundtrack to the DDS PS2 game. Most people disregard the music played in the opening credits of a video game, but I know talent when I hear it. I ordered the CD immediately and I am still delighted with the purchase.

NOW THIS IS WHAT MUSIC SHOULD SOUND LIKE!!!5
Etro Anime's "See the Sound" was one of those CDs that I just happened to stumble across in the record store. Known to take dares on new acts, I was very impressed by this very ambitious and daring group at first listen. I didn't have to listen to it a couple of times like I do most albums to determine whether I like it or not..."See The Sound" immediately grabbed me with its heavy bass lines, refreshing grooves, dreamy melodies and infectious hooks. Lissette Alea's vocals are beautiful and strong enough to be compared to the likes of Gretchen Lieberum, Nelly Furtado and Geri Soriano-Lightwood (Supreme Beings of Leisure). Songs of note are "Endless", "Diablo", "Adonis", "Summer Rain", "Forgotten Love" and "All I Need." This will indeed be my soundtrack for this Summer!

A Perfect Sound (Final1y!)5
Wow, ladies and gentlemen, you have got to purchase this cd right away, not only for the AMAZING music, but to show the artists that you support them 100 percent. With it's mixes of jazz and trip-hop, an amazing blend to say the least, Etro Anime is perfection to the last beat. The lead singer's voice is like a saccharine tinged Esthero (who, by the way, is amazing; check out "Breath From Another") with the subtle sounds of river water. I promise you that you will not be disappointed with this album; it is one of the few perfect albums to have come out in the past and present decade!
