Ghost (Third Eye Foundation Album)
''Ghost'' is a studio album by Matt Elliott, released under the moniker The Third Eye Foundation. It was originally released on Domino Recording Company in 1997. Critical reception Keith Farley of AllMusic gave the album 3 stars out of 5, saying, "A focus on warped guitar noise and the odd, untraceable samples place ''Ghost'' in similar territory to earlier Third Eye material, though 'Corpses as Bedmates' and 'The Star's Gone Out' reveal a few interesting drum'n'bass patterns." Peter Margasak of '' Chicago Reader'' said, "Elliot channels in dense, often harsh, slate-gray soundscapes that frequently rumble with hyperactive rhythm programming."

You Guys Kill Me
''You Guys Kill Me'' is a studio album by Matt Elliott, released under the moniker The Third Eye Foundation. It was originally released on Domino Recording Company on 20 October 1998. Critical reception Will Hermes of ''Entertainment Weekly'' gave the album a grade of "A−," calling it "a dense weave of scissored rhythms and slithering tape loops that reads like a soundtrack to some great lost surrealist film." John Bush of AllMusic gave the album 4.5 stars out of 5, saying, "The beats and effects Matt Elliott concocted aren't incredibly original (there's the sewing-machine Brazilian bossa shuffle and the downbeat from Boogie Down Productions' "Bridge Is Over," along with various effects including howling dogs, dark crackly strings and metallic), but the slice-and-dice production, along with creative processing, transforms them into revelatory darkside symphonies."

AllMusic
AllMusic (previously known as All Music Guide and AMG) is an American online music database. It catalogs more than three million album entries and 30 million tracks, as well as information on musicians and bands. Initiated in 1991, the database was first made available on the Internet in 1994. AllMusic is owned by RhythmOne. History AllMusic was launched as ''All Music Guide'' by Michael Erlewine, a "compulsive archivist, noted astrologer, Buddhist scholar and musician". He became interested in using computers for his astrological work in the mid-1970s and founded a software company, Matrix, in 1977. In the early 1990s, as CDs replaced LPs as the dominant format for recorded music, Erlewine purchased what he thought was a CD of early recordings by Little Richard. After buying it he discovered it was a "flaccid latter-day rehash". Frustrated with the labeling, he researched using metadata to create a music guide. In 1990, in Big Rapids, Michigan, he founded ''All Music Guide' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Domino Recording Company Albums
Dominoes is a family of tile-based games played with gaming pieces, commonly known as dominoes. Each domino is a rectangular tile, usually with a line dividing its face into two square ''ends''. Each end is marked with a number of spots (also called '' pips'' or ''dots'') or is blank. The backs of the tiles in a set are indistinguishable, either blank or having some common design. The gaming pieces make up a domino set, sometimes called a ''deck'' or ''pack''. The traditional European domino set consists of 28 tiles, also known as pieces, bones, rocks, stones, men, cards or just dominoes, featuring all combinations of spot counts between zero and six. A domino set is a generic gaming device, similar to playing cards or dice, in that a variety of games can be played with a set. Another form of entertainment using domino pieces is the practice of domino toppling. The earliest mention of dominoes is from Song dynasty China found in the text ''Former Events in Wulin'' by Zhou Mi (1 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
