Editorial Reviews
Product Description
Remember the joy of finding one of those bands that were a "best kept secret" just before they exploded? Here you go again...

Perhaps you have heard the name from a friend.
Or heard them on MTV [Making the Video]
Or Film [The Only Way Out]
Or Radio [WDXU, 88.7, Duke University, RaversEdge, Cleveland, 88.1, University of Rhode Island, WUNM, University of New Mexico, Brazil, Etc]
Or remixes of their work [Drum+Cello, Living in the Light, Circles and Squares]
Or on compilation CDs alongside Chemical Brothers, Kraftwerk, Dave Gahan, Etc.

"Ultrastar* is one of those bands that makes you feel great inside again about the state of modern music today."

Comparisions range the gamut: Massive Attack, Everything but the Girl, Bjork, Alpha, Lamb, Radiohead...None of them really sum up the Ultrastar Sound.

It is said best in this quote:
"One of those rare bands that inspires others to pick up the guitar [or sampler ] and start a band."

Buy the CD, Listen + Enjoy. [Headphones Recommended.]

The Players:

Producer / Composer Chad Palmer plays quietly sophisticated guitar, dirty driving basslines and creates some refreshingly inspired beats amid a rich texture of brilliant strings and ambient soundscapes.

Dj Dig explores the depths with his sampler to take you down along surprising twists and turns. He also keeps the vinyl flying using turntablism as his main weapon of choice while he sings in one of those rare pure voices that make you swear that he crafted the words just for you.

New York Actress Elizabeth Sackett adds a dash of glamour and a softer feminine side to Ultrastar* singing songs about life, love and the ones that got away.

Beautiful Abstractions (Limited Edition EP),Ultrastar,Adigita,Ultrastar* oozes that cinematic, epic, sexy soundscape vibe that fuels the late night electronic jetset generation.

    5 out of 5 stars Amazing Music.......2004-07-02

    Wow! Ultrastar (or is it Ultrastar*?) has produced an amazing album with Beautiful Abstractions. The title says it all - this CD is beautiful with its soaring female vocals and abstract with its catchy twisted and solid beats. Lots of strings and cool downtempo guitar work. The production feels intimate and raw yet very professional - hard to describe. Think Massive Attack meets Everything but the Girl meets Zero 7 meets - well you get the idea.
    Unlike most CDs I have purchased lately, this CD doesn't have a bad track on it. That's reason enough to keep it in my CD changer!
