Sister Awake Remix
''The Edges of Twilight'' is the third album by Canadian rock band The Tea Party, released in 1995. The album features many instruments from around the world, giving various songs a strong world music flavour in addition to the rock/ blues influences evident in the band's earlier releases. Jeff Burrows explained that "basically we wanted to expand upon the initial idea that we tried on ''Splendor Solis'', which was trying to incorporate different styles of world music into our music. So with this album we became more familiar with many more instruments. In our minds we were trying to do for a rock album what Peter Gabriel does to pop by infusing various cultures, percussion and exotic sounds into it."Jeff Burrows, High Tea April 1995, Beat, Melbourne, Australia.

Windows XP is a major release of Microsoft's Windows NT operating system. It was released to manufacturing on August 24, 2001, and later to retail on October 25, 2001. It is a direct upgrade to its predecessors, Windows 2000 for high-end and business users and Windows Me for home users, available for any devices running Windows NT 4.0, Windows 98, Windows 2000 and Windows Me that meet the new Windows XP system requirements. Development of Windows XP began in the late 1990s under the codename "Neptune", built on the Windows NT kernel explicitly intended for mainstream consumer use. An updated version of Windows 2000 was also initially planned for the business market. However, in January 2000, both projects were scrapped in favor of a single OS codenamed "Whistler", which would serve as a single platform for both consumer and business markets. As a result, Windows XP is the first consumer edition of Windows not based on the Windows 95 kernel and MS-DOS. Windows XP removed suppo ...

Triptych (The Tea Party Album)
''Triptych'' (stylized as ''TRIPtych'') is The Tea Party's fifth album, released in 1999. It has the trio blending the major influences found on their previous albums: the earthy rock music, rock of ''Splendor Solis (album), Splendor Solis'', the world music inspired arrangements of ''The Edges of Twilight'', and the industrial music, industrial edge of ''Transmission (The Tea Party album), Transmission''. After the gloom of ''Transmission'', which relied heavily on sampling and electronica, for ''Triptych'' the band wrote with both melody and content, while using electronica subtlety. This is evidenced by the Juno Award nominated single "Heaven Coming Down", the band's first number one single in Canada. The album itself reached #4 on the Canadian album chart, and received a Juno nomination for "Best Rock Album", before achieving double Platinum album, platinum sales in Canada. In June 2000, the EMI labels in Europe released ''Triptych Special Tour Edition 2000'', which included ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
