5.0 out of 5 stars Playful Improvisational Electronica April 30, 2011
Format:MP3 Music
'We are Rising' is another wonderful album from Son Lux. Though the themes are serious in nature, it is more improvisational and playful than his 'At War With Walls and Mazes' which was tightly planned, concept driven and thematic. Both albums are saturated with wonderful and playful sounds. Listening to 'We Are Rising' you can hear how the sounds drove the creative process and the development and elaboration of the sound themes takes center stage. I particularly liked 'Rising', 'Leave The Riches' and 'Flickers' though all the songs are strong and fit together well as a whole.

"We are Rising" was conceived and recorded in February 2011 as part of the 'RPM Challenge' with the creative process encouraged and documented by NPR's All Songs Considered. It is remarkable that such a short burst of creativity and hard work could lead to this great album. As Son Lux states in his All Songs Considered interview "honestly, this record was more like improvisation. I mean it's definitely composing. But it's the closest I've come to improvising in the studio, which was fun."

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant. April 7, 2012
By Deb
Format:MP3 Music
Ryan Lott is a genius, pure and simple. His melodies are enthralling. His lyrics are captivating. And his voice--my gosh, his voice!--is mesmerizing. His songs are epic in the purest sense of the word. This isn't background music--when you hit play, you are withdrawn from the world in the most fantastic way. He deserves far more recognition than he currently has.

I'd recommend this album to fans of Sufjan Stevens (specifically Stevens's newer stuff) and Radiohead, as well as fans of movie soundtracks, simply because of the orchestral sound to many of Son Lux's songs.

This album is well worth your money!

5.0 out of 5 stars AMAZING AND FULL OF SPARKLES! January 7, 2013
By Penny
Format:MP3 Music
I stumbled upon Son Lux because of a fanvid I saw while Tumblring. The video did not credit the song or its artist, but the song was just so beautiful that I HAD TO FIND IT. I was able to piece enough of the lyrics together to find out it was "Flickers." I am so glad I did because Son Lux's work is genius. I like how most of his tracks aren't dominated by vocals and how the background instruments/ beats are gorgeous. I love that the lyrics are open to interpretation, simple (YET SO PROFOUND), and show serious contemplation. I am a fan for life!
