Band Members: POSITIVE POSITIVE - that's what this is all about - - - - - - - - - - - - the WORDS and MUSIC are to CELEBRATE LIFE and LIVE EVERY MOMENT IN JOY - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - I BELIEVE we all CAN LET GO OF THE PAST and SHINE PURE and BRIGHT - - - LOVE CUTS THROUGH IT ALL especially when WE LOVE OURSELVES * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Al Briones played the beautiful keys on "One Night", while Christopher Jackson added vocals and spice to the other tracks. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - impulsive lust is a music trip that features Christopher Jackson on vocals. Other players have helped out, such as Al Briones on keyboards, Rosa Bautista and Cristina Basurto on background vocals, Amos Przekaza on drums and Russell Walters on bass. Chris has produced, written and performed most of the material. But it's not from lack of wanting to collaborate with others, that's just how it happened. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - From '98 impulsive lust has been a place to experiment with whatever came out, keeping the best and moving on and up, continuing to bring love and a positive message through, more pure and natural as we go. This makes it a very personal but universal trip for all to dive into, and maybe free ourselves of whatever we want to let go of. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "Anything worth doing is worth doing All The Way. Just know you'll have to live with all the choices that you make. So make sure you're always Giving way MORE than you're taking" Miss V - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Much love, chris

Without artists like impulsive lust, the music scene would be boring!” - Bob Suehs, Rock N Roll Experience, Maryland - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "Gothic reggae?

Reggae infusions of strange structures, mixed through a pop/rock of another age completely brought back. Listen, but attention, you were warned!" - Salvatore Baldacchino, Backstage Radio News, Belgium - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "Brutally honest and playfully uncomplicated. There is no genre confinement when it comes to the sound, but the melodies and lyrics, rich in vibrant untainted naivety, seem to possess the rhythmic blissfulness of reggae." - Morticia Devine, Underground Press, South Africa - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "Honest. Straight from the heart." - Peter-Jan, Darker Than the Bat, Belgium - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "This cd is exactly what the title suggests, a twisted fusion of goth and reggae, at least on the best tracks (like "Amphetamine" and "Darkness"), where dark, droning keyboards play out over fat reggae beats from a drum machine while solo guy Christopher Jackson sings. The overall feel of the entire album has more to do with reggae than goth -- it's really an eccentric reggae album with goth stylings on top -- and while it's kind of bizarre to hear a white dude from L.A. doing reggae, he's actually got a pretty good grip on the concept. - - - - - - - In true reggae tradition, he keeps everything simple, including the keyboards, but those simple rhythms and keyboard bleats are awfully catchy. Reggae is all about the groove, and there's plenty of groove happening here, especially on the keyboard-heavy tracks; he's really good at piling on the keyboard drone, which makes for a really interesting sound. Twelve tracks, plenty of island rhythms and whompin' beats, and plenty of good-natured attitude. - - - - - - - - Reggae fans (hell, maybe even goth fans) looking for new kicks should look into this." - RKF, Dead Angel - Austin, TX - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "Outrageous expression! CJ's Gothic Reggae is an outrageous example of a new "world hybrid" that takes the listener on a journey they will not soon forget. 5 EARS UP!!" - Jack Bishop, UCLA Professor of Ethnomusicology - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Primal vocals....no words....HA! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Don't forget to Dance!!!
Sounds Like: Well, we'll leave that up to you. Because it's not Marley and it's not quite Bauhaus, maybe more like Billie Holiday and Jim Morrison on a wild rendezvous in Jamaica. Respect the Arab... love yourself. Love others... respect yourself. We are all the same"Sing songs that none have sung
Think thoughts that ne'er in brain have rung Walk in paths that none have trod Weep tears as none have shed for god Give peace to all to whom none other gave Claim him your own who's everywhere disclaimed Love all with love none have felt and brave the battle of life with strength unchained" - Paramahansa Yogananda
