Artist:	THE NATIONAL TRUST
Title:	Dekkagar
Label:	THRILL JOCKEY
Format:	CD
Price:	$13.00
Catalog #:	THR 111CD

"Delivering on its promise of lush vocal harmonies, pillowy percussion and imagery with the saturation of a sunset over the ocean. The listener inhales the world of Dekkagar, from the first steamy keyboard/bongo interweavings of 'Making Love in the Natural Light' to the sweeping orchestrations and Buffalo Springfield aura of 'First Time That.' The National Trust formulated as complete and multifaceted a musical universe as you will hear this year."

Artist:	THE NATIONAL TRUST
Title:	Kings and Queens
Label:	THRILL JOCKEY
Format:	CD
Price:	$13.00
Catalog #:	THR 143CD

"Kings and Queens is a freaky conflation of dance music, like a 31-flavor ice cream social on a hot summer's day where bongos and subs keep time for a gaggle of face-painters, genies and roller-queens, but it's more about lifestyle than any generic allegiance or retro revivalism. The National Trust calls it 'body music.' Kings and Queens makes plenty of nods to disco, house, and pop. Equally present on Kings and Queens are Chicago-style horns, R&B falsetto, Latino percussion and bass lines with more soul than a gospel choir; and the presence of these styles on Kings and Queens is more than just imitation, but rather the contributions of practiced players from each of many genres."
