"Philanthropy" contains enjoyable dance songs with strong lyrics and electronic backgrounds that show a wide variety of styles. Every fan/musician is leaving a personal print here.
This promising project was born at tennant-lowe.com forum: A fan under the nickname of “twisted logic†suggested the idea of taking an advantage from the fans who were musicians to produce an album. People from the forum just loved it and we all started to work on it immediately. We chose fans with experience in the music world. Artists like KooLTURE, an Argentine singer and producer who is presently making the rounds with songs of his own as well as a beautiful cover version of classic Pet Shop Boys' hit “Heartâ€.
One of the pleasant surprises of the album is the producer and musician Chris Kalera , who is also known as Dynarec, whose vocals sound similar to Neil Tennant's. He has collaborated with so many areas of production, singing and adding vocals to various songs. Chris kalera started making music about ten years ago. Heavily influenced by the 80's synthetic pop sounds, he's into techno as well (on his ckal label), electro (he releases as"dynArec"), and more detroitish stuff are produced under the "speakwave" alias.His classical formation allows him to write tunes very quickly, and he probably has hundreds of unreleased tracks somewhere in his lair...
